Welcome

Hello and welcome to the landing page for using our Rust Web Synthesizer!

Whether you're an experienced musician or just getting started with synthesizers, our web-based instrument is here to ignite your creativity and explore the world of electronic music.

Understanding Synthesizers

In order to make the most of our Rust Web Synthesizer, it's helpful to have a basic understanding of how synthesizers work. A synthesizer is an electronic musical instrument that generates and manipulates sound waves. Using various parameters such as oscillators, filters, and envelopes, synthesizers create a wide range of sounds, from simple tones to complex textures. These sounds can be used in various contexts, such as music production, sound design, and live performances.

Features

Our Rust Web Synthesizer offers a wide range of features to enhance your musical experience. From selectable waveforms to filters, you'll find everything you need to craft unique sounds and melodies. Here is a descriptive list of filter types and oscillators that you can experiment with:

Choose from multiple oscillator options including sine, square, triangle, and sawtooth waveforms.

Sine: This oscillator produces a smooth and pure tone, ideal for creating soft and ambient sounds.

Square: This oscillator produces a rich and edgy tone, commonly used in genres like EDM and dubstep.

Triangle: This oscillator creates a mellow and smooth tone, perfect for pads and atmospheric sounds.

Sawtooth: This oscillator delivers a bright and sharp tone, great for creating lead sounds and adding aggression to your tracks.

Noise: This oscillator generates random noise, perfect for adding texture and effects to your music.

QWERTY Keyboard Input

Our Rust Web Synthesizer also has the capability to take input from your QWERTY keyboard, turning it into a musical controller. You can also press the keys using the mouse pointer.

Octave Shift: Adjust the octave to play higher or lower notes using the "Z" key (octave down) and the "X" key (octave up), allowing you to explore a wider range of musical possibilities.
