- People experimenting with audio effects on local media
- Worth noticing
- The interface explains each effect, from bitcrushing to a resonant filter sweep, and includes four waveform generator choices.
Field notes
The interface separates local-file playback from waveform tone generation, and says uploaded media loops automatically in a 640×360 window. Effect descriptions explain controls in practical terms: bit depth changes the bitcrusher’s texture, while threshold and ratio shape compression. The page recommends keeping files small; the extracted text does not show the complete list of rack modules.
