Come eliminare OktaDie

Eight touch-sensitive voices, a cross-modulation matrix, a dual modulated delay and an overdrive - with no keyboard, no scale and no quantisation anywhere in the signal path. OktaDie is not a subtractive synth with a fancy front panel: it is a machine that responds to touch, drifts on its own, and never produces exactly the same sound twice.

Inspired by the legendary analogue "organismic synthesizer", OktaDie follows the same philosophy: the envelope is part of the oscillator, not a VCA after it; noise, bleed and crosstalk are features, not defects; and every position of every control is designed to produce a usable soundscape.

PLAYED BY TOUCH
Eight multitouch pads replace the keyboard. Play them with several fingers at once, slide sideways to glide from one pad to the next. How hard you press matters: iOS does not measure finger force, so OktaDie reads the contact area of your fingertip - press harder, more skin touches the glass, the envelope opens further. Apple Pencil pressure is used directly where available. Choose POSITION, AREA or BOTH under SETUP.

THE VOICES
Eight non-linear generators, closer to a vintage electric organ than to a VCO. TUNE moves each voice continuously across a huge range, untempered and unquantised. SHARP morphs the waveform from triangle to square. The envelope shapes pitch and waveform as it moves, and weighs how much the voice contributes to the FM matrix. Independent drift on every voice means two instances never sit perfectly in tune.
