App: BB17 Binaural Auv3 Synth
Developer: Paul Wand
Genres: Music

High fidelity Synthesizer designed for generating Binaural beats and exploring alternate scales.

~ Tone Generation (additive & precise)


Additive waveform generation allows for a softer sound on the high end while maintaining the distinctive feel of these classic waveforms. Additive oscillators are indicated by a lowercase title.

~ saw
The additive sawtooth wave is generated by adding all the overtones one through 17. 

~ sqr
The additive square wave is generated by adding all the odd overtones 1 3 5 7 9 11 13 15 & 17. 

These two additive oscillators sound a bit smoother on the high end without the near-infinite overtones of their precise counterparts.

Uppercase indicates a precise oscillator:

~ SAW
   Sawtooth Wave, try all SAW waves with some detune & low pass filter for the classic supersaw effect!

~ TRI
   Triangle Wave, smooth sound, good for pads or lead.

~ SQR 
   Square Wave, good for the classic vintage feel.


The precise form is calculated according to the mathematics of their respective equations. 

~ Binaural Beats

The Binaural Slider to the left of the oscilloscope and will offset the right speaker by the amount of HZ listed above it.

This enables the generation and experimentation of binaural beats for scientific and recreational purposes.

Much like the Arabic scale often a subset of notes is chosen for a piece.
