* WE'VE RELEASED A NEW & IMPROVED VERSION OF SYNTORIAL IN THE APP STORE. JUST SEARCH "SYNTORIAL 2" * Syntorial is a synthesizer training app, that will teach you how to program synth patches by ear. By combining video demonstrations with interactive challenges, you’ll get hands on experience programming patches on a built-in soft synth, and learn everything you need to know to start making your own sounds with ease. "Syntorial is the most direct route between hearing a sound in your head and knowing how to bring it to life." - Electronic Musician Magazine "The most comprehensive and fun tool for learning synthesizer programming, hands down." - Keyboard Magazine “The best training in synth sound-design we’ve come across. A unique and fun way to train your ears in re-creating synth sounds.” - MusicTech Magazine * Electronic Musician Editor's Choice 2014 * HIGHLIGHTS • Interactive Learning: Syntorial doesn’t just show you how synth programming works. It engages you in Interactive Challenges in which you program patches on a built-in synth. You aren’t just learning how to design sound, you are becoming a sound designer. • For Musicians, Not Physicists: Instead of talking about the science and physics behind synthesizers, Syntorial will show you how each control effects sound, as well as when, why and how you would use them when designing sounds. This is information that you can immediately apply to real-life situations. • It's All About The Ear: One step at a time, Syntorial trains your ear to recognize how each control shapes and manipulates sound. By the end of the program you’ll be able to take the sounds you hear and re-create them, completely by ear. LESSON SPECS • Challenges: Learn by doing! Complete challenges by programming patches with Syntorial’s built-in synth. • Videos: Everything is taught through video demonstrations using the same synth that you’ll use in the challenges. • Patches: Program, program, program. After all, that’s what it’s all about, right? By the end you will have programmed tons of patches, from simple to complex, familiar to strange. • Quizzes: Multiple choice questions to help you retain and remember everything you learn. • On Your Own: Syntorial will give you periodic tasks to be carried out on your own with whatever synth(s) you use. SYNTH SPECS • Subtractive synthesis • Three Oscillators (Two with Waveform, Pitch, Pulse Width, and Mix controls, and a Sub oscillator with Waveform and Volume controls) • Saw, Pulse, Triangle and Sine waveforms • FM knob • Noise Oscillator • Oscillator Sync • Filter (Low, Band and High Pass) with Resonance and Key Tracking • ADSR Filter Envelope • ADSR Amp Envelope • AD Modulation Envelope • LFO with four waveforms, seven destinations, rate, amount, trigger, and mono/poly modes • Mono and Poly Voice Modes • Portamento • Unison with Voice, Detune and Spread controls • Ring Modulation • Distortion, Chorus, Phaser, Delay, and Reverb effects • Mod Wheel, Pitch Wheel and Velocity controls FREE VS UPGRADE The free app comes with the first 22 Lessons, additional Lesson Pack samples, as well as Syntorial's fully featured synth. Upgrade to get: • All 199 Lessons, including 129 Challenges, 147 Videos, and 706 Patches covering the most common synthesis parameters. • Additional Lesson Packs covering Massive, Sylenth1, Cakewalk Z3TA+ 2 and Minimoog Voyager, each containing 30+ videos. More Lesson Packs planned for the future. • Pay once and get access to all of the above on iPad, Mac and PC. Sync your progress across all 3 platforms. Train where you want, when you want, and how you want. • Plugin version of Syntorial's synth, Primer. Program, record and play Primer in your favorite desktop recording software. VST (Mac/PC) and AU (Mac). Syntorial: A New Way To Learn Synthesis}

The app is even better on the iPad. However, I have a problem when finishing a lesson sometimes, I can’t go back to it and I’m obliged to do some lessons many time to retrieve my progression.

I have nothing but praise for Syntorial. As a pure beginner, this app took me from aimless puttering to methodically learning how to shape sound, one aspect at a time. It’s extremely well designed, comprehensive and fun. Like I said, worth every penny.

Syntorial is the best computer based learning tutorial I have ever used, bar none. Being a 60 year old programmer, that’s saying something! It takes you through a synthesizer (included) control by control, training your ears to recognize what each sound wave modification sounds like, by using a gradually expanding set of tools to match a sound you hear. This both trains your ear (to recreate sounds you hear), while it increases your ability to create sounds by knowing what each part of a typical synth does. Yeah, it’s $130, but it beats paying more for various other ways to learn synthesis and not getting the same results (knowledge), only to try another one.

Die App ist wirklich super, um sein Gehör für subtraktive Synthese zu schulen und die Prinzipien zu lernen. Diese App hätte ich mir (mit einem iPad) vor 10 Jahren gewünscht 😜. Wenn man bedenkt, was man geboten bekommt ist der Preis für die Leistung mehr als gerechtfertigt. (Tip: die Vollversion kann man auch auf der Website erwerben...) Richtig schön wäre, wenn auch ‚Jedermann Hardware Synths‘ wie der MicroKorg eigene Kurse erhalten würden...

This app is amazing. I watched lots of tutorials on YouTube but there is no better way to learn more about programming synthesizers than using this app. Also I use it to better unterstand Serum. So the lesson packs are also great.

Best way to learn sound design in my opinion! The lessons are clear and concise, and the activities are the perfect way to train your ear and learn new techniques!

Although there’s an important cost upfront, once you start using the app, you understand why. It goes in depth into all you need to know about synthesizers and each lesson is followed by a challenge, which is great to train your earring to reinforce the different concepts tackled by this course. Also includes plug-in synth as a bonus. Definitely worth every penny!
