TOUR 808 family explorer

A machine you can cross-examine.

Select a voice. Hear a deterministic render from the current Rust engine. Follow the signal path and see the contract its tests enforce.

Bridged-T resonator family

The kick combines a transistor-driven pitch jump, a four-component pulse shaper, a bridged-T body, retrigger injection and a level-dependent pitch sigh.

Synthesis is not running in your browser. Every clip is a fixed-seed render from the current VoltageDrums engine; browser playback may resample it.
