Animated East

An instrument for exploring. Animated East invites you to slow down and design sounds one module at a time. Drag-and-drop modulation, 3D visualization, and menu-free navigation make sound creation intuitive. Microtuning and per-module drift offer up the unexpected.

Key Features:

3D Navigable Tunnel: Scroll or use arrows to move fluidly through the signal chain.

Dual Oscillators: multiple wave types with dedicated gain, octave, detune, and drift controls.

Noise Generator: Level and density (color) controls.

Dual Filters: Low-Pass and High-Pass including drive, resonance, drift, and cutoff.

Dual Envelopes: ADSR and Auxiliary AR (Attack / Release). AR is loop-able, doubling as a free-rate LFO.

LFO: Includes sync and free-rate modes, rate control, and shape (four shapes).

Microtuning: 5 selectable modes for moving beyond equal temperament.

Why Animated East?

Visual Synthesis: 3D interactions on most parameters.

Flow-State Design: A user interface that encourages single-module focus.

Intuitive Modulation: Drag and drop three sources onto sixteen parameters.

Classic Foundation: Built on a classic subtractive synthesis architecture.
