Stuff About Synths

Synths are electronic instruments designed for creating and shaping sound, from classic analogue-style tones to modern digital textures. Used for basslines, leads, pads and experimental sound design, they play a central role in many styles of music. If you enjoy hands-on creativity and exploring new sonic ideas, synths offer a powerful and expressive way to make music.

The Important stuff

2010s. Digital — Digital is sound generation and processing based on digital signal processing rather than analogue circuitry. It is used for precise control, stable tuning, patch memory, and complex sound design that would be difficult to achieve with purely analogue systems. For example, a digital instrument might be used to create detailed evolving textures or realistic emulations while storing and recalling complete sound setups instantly. . Modal — Modal is a method of sound generation based on modelling the physical resonances of objects rather than traditional oscillators or samples. It is used to create harmonically rich, expressive sounds that respond naturally to changes in pitch, dynamics, and modulation. For example, modal synthesis can be used to produce bell-like tones, metallic textures, or acoustic-inspired sounds that feel organic while remaining fully controllable in an electronic instrument. . Monophonic — Monophonic is the ability to play only one note at a time. It is used for focused, expressive parts where pitch, articulation, and modulation are more important than chords. For example, a monophonic instrument is often used for bass lines or lead sounds, allowing smooth note transitions, slides, and detailed control over dynamics and movement. .
