Synth Studio — Online Synthesizer Playground
Play a polyphonic synthesizer in your browser. Three oscillators, an envelope, delay, and an arpeggiator — all synthesized live with the Web Audio API. 100% client-side — nothing leaves your browser.
How to Use the Synth Studio
- Play — click the piano keys or use your computer keyboard (A–K row plays white keys, W–O row plays black keys).
- Shape the sound — choose a waveform and volume for each of the three oscillators.
- Add movement — adjust attack, release, and delay to change the character.
- Arpeggiate — click Arpeggio while holding notes to cycle through them at the selected tempo.
Why Use This Synth Studio
Synth Studio turns your browser into a polyphonic synthesizer using nothing but the Web Audio API. No plugins, no installation — every oscillator, envelope, and delay runs in real time on your device. It's perfect for sketching synth sounds, learning synthesis, or just having fun.
Try combining it with the Euclidean Rhythm Generator to drive rhythmic patterns, or the Melody Generator for melodic ideas.
Frequently Asked Questions
Not directly. The synth is played via on-screen keys or your computer keyboard. For MIDI workflows, convert files with the MP3 to MIDI Converter and open them in your DAW.
Not yet. For recording, use the Audio Recorder with your microphone or a loopback device to capture the output.
An arpeggiator cycles through the notes you are holding one at a time in a repeating pattern, creating the classic "stuttering" synth effect. Hold a chord, enable Arpeggio, and adjust the speed to hear it in action.
