Invention

A polyphonic synthesizer that plays with you — it discovers, it misbehaves, and it never forgets what you just played.

Invention — the HOME page: BLOOM, FLUX and CHAOS macro knobs on a black anodised faceplate

Designed for accidents.
Built to capture them.


The signature

Catch the Hit

LISTENING

Invention never stops listening. A continuous buffer holds the last minute of everything coming out of the instrument — every take, every slip, every accident.

The moment something magic happens, hit CATCH. The last bars are lifted retroactively, aligned to the grid or to the first transient, and written as a loop-ready WAV. Drag it straight into your DAW.

And the riff comes with it: drag the pattern out as MIDI and play the same idea with any sound you own.

The instrument

Four ways in

The SOUND page — three oscillators, eight waveforms, filter section

Sound

Three oscillators, eight characters

From bright buzz to glassy bell to a vowel "aah" — each wave is a character, not a table. Stack them with unison, bend them with FM, ring and fold, and shape it all through a smooth analog-style filter.

Invent

The discovery engine

An arpeggiator that composes: bloom voicings, strum direction, humanize, Euclidean pulses and a pattern grid you draw by hand. When it finds something, you don't transcribe it — you catch it.

The INVENT page — discovery engine, pattern and accent grids, bloom and strum controls
The CHAIN page — a pedalboard of stompbox effects: ring, gate, delay

Chain

A milled pedalboard

Twenty stompboxes — tape, scratch, pump, glitch, rotator — on one board. Tap to add, drag to reorder, and every pedal ships with its own curated starting points.

Chaos

Accidents, by invitation

One knob invites trouble: note drops, octave jumps, spikes and ratchets, scattered over a live probability field. Turn it up until it surprises you — the buffer is already recording.

The CHAOS page — accident engine, chance field, Euclid pulses
