Welcome to the Zyn Demo!
Zyn is a small JS audio synthesizer which clocks in at around 5.64kb (~2.4kb zipped). You can read all about it on GitHub here.
This interactive tool allows you to explore procedurally generated synthesizer instruments. Use your computer keyboard (QWERTY keys) to play notes and experiment with different instrument seeds.
How to use:
- Use the QWERTY keys on your keyboard to play notes (Q is middle C)
- Change the octave using the dropdown or Page Up/Down keys
- Modify the instrument seed manually or click "Random Instrument"
- Use + and - keys to cycle through instrument seeds
Notice: As this synth generates random sounds, some may be unexpected or harsh. Please listen at a safe and comfortable volume to
protect your hearing and enjoy the experience.
