Make your first

Music technology · beginner friendly · about 10 minutes · no setup

You do not need to read music or know any math. In the next ten minutes you will see what a sound actually is, shape one yourself, and play a short tune on a synth you built. Headphones help. Press the button to begin.

By the end, you will be able to:

  • Explain that a sound is a vibration moving through the air.
  • Tell pitch and loudness apart.
  • Hear how the shape of a wave changes its character.
  • Shape how a sound begins and ends.
  • Build a simple synth sound and play a short tune on it.
