MetaSynth 2.0 Demo

MetaSynth is the first synthesis and sound design software that gives you all the power of 
advanced computer graphics to explore infinite sonic possibilities. It combines sampling, 
wavetable, additive, subtractive, granular and frequency modulation techniques with the 
most intuitive means for visualizing audio information ever created. 

Screen Shot

MetaSynth literally lets you paint with sound. What happens when any image from any source, 
can be transformed into sound ? MetaSynth, created by legendary programmer and artist Eric 
Wenger (the inventor of KPT Bryce) makes this discovery possible. MetaSynth works with 
audio like a graphic program. Even non-musicians can instantly interpret and use MetaSynth's 
picture window...Create a vivid tone picture, splashing broad strokes of sound across the 
screen. Or carefully draw in notes, harmonics and undertones, entire scores, controlling every 
sonic nuance. Or simply use any picture as a starting point for a new sound or composition, 
then freely shape and alter it. 

MetaSynth maps picture coordinates into time and frequency domains. A pixel's gray scale 
controls the volume of a specific harmonic at a specific moment in time. Stereo position is 
determined by pixel color. 


MetaSynth is a stand-alone application that comes complete with a variety of built-in 
synthesis and sample playback engines. On faster computers MetaSynth can preview more than 
400 oscillators in real time. MetaSynth employs unlimited oscillators when Synthesizing, or 
processing, your sound to RAM. How's that for polyphony! Load in your own Sound Designer II 
or AIFF samples, use the on-board Wave Table and Procedural Synthesizers, apply real-time 
Effects, custom harmonic filters and exotic processing algorithms, then save your creations 
as mono or stereo SDII files. 

MetaSynth is produced by U&I Software. For more information complete with tutorials and
