For the construction of uncommon sounds.

Eidolon is a polyphonic software synthesizer. Begin with three sources in each voice, shape them through two folding stages and two filters, then set the sound in motion with envelopes, LFOs and a 24-slot modulation matrix.

In development · Not yet available

Eidolon's Front view: six numbered sections across the panel, Oscillators, Wavefolders, Filters, VCA and Noise, Effects, and Output, each with a Detail button.
The Front view follows the signal from left to right. A development build of the editor, in its initial state; the interface may change before release.

How a sound is built

Each voice carries its own sources, folding, filtering and amplitude. The voices then share one effects section and output.

  1. SourcesThree oscillator slots a voice, each subtractive, additive or wavetable.
  2. FoldingTwo wavefolders, WF A and WF B, reshape the summed sources.
  3. FiltersTwo filters, FLT A and FLT B.
  4. AmplitudeThe VCA, with its own envelope and a noise source.
  5. Shared outputThe voices are summed through a shared effects section and output.

Movement

Every voice has four envelopes and eight LFOs. The Back view gathers the modulation matrix: 24 slots, each joining a source to one of 20 targets in the filters, wavefolders and oscillators with its own depth.

Eidolon's Back view: the modulation matrix in two banks of twelve slots, each with a source, a target and a depth; in the initial state the first six slots hold routes, four of them active.
