that meets demanding professional needs
Master advanced synthesis techniques: FM, ring mod, additive, granular, and much more. No complex dashboards of knobs, dials and connectors with unpredictable effects. No programming. Just draw to unleash your creativity! Only 29.99E for professional use.
HighC uses only the simplest GUI techniques: draw notes, envelopes and wave shapes;
move and resize sounds; copy and paste to create effects; group sounds into rhythms
or patterns; repeat your groupings to create an harmonic line; link your sounds to
one another to create modulations... It's simple, it's powerful!
