Chromaphone For Mac

Chromaphone is a synthesizer dedicated to the creation of acoustic instruments. It is based on the combination of acoustic resonators to create drums, percussion, string and hybrid synth-like instruments.

Membranes, marimbas, bars, strings, plates, and tubes form pairs that get sparked into life by a mallet and a flexible noise source.

Access to different parameters such as the material of the resonators, their tuning and hit position allow for the creation of a vast range of realistic and creative instruments and sonic colors.

Chromaphone is entirely based on Applied Acoustics Systems (AAS) physical modeling tech- nology and uses no sampling nor wave tables. Sound is produced by solving, on the fly, mathe- matical equations modeling the different types of resonators and how they interact.

This elaborate synthesis engine responds dynamically to the control signals it receives while you play reproducing the richness and responsiveness of real acoustic instruments.

Chromaphone features a brand-new coupling technology allowing an accurate description of the exchange of energy between the res- onators resulting in rich and natural sounding tones.
