- People building modular audio instruments
- Worth noticing
- The page describes audio and control signals sharing one type, so an LFO can modulate a filter or feed directly to speakers.
Field notes
The page frames a patch as an instrument-building unit rather than a song arrangement, and describes connecting MIDI controllers and hardware audio inputs as modules in the same system. It says grouped modules can become editable blocks, while a finished patch can be exported with selected front-panel controls. These are product descriptions on a private-beta landing page, not independently verified software behavior.
