Smart Lab — Hybrid Experimental Synthesizer Smart Lab is a new standalone hybrid synthesizer designed for experimental sound design and performance. Combining concepts inspired by instruments from Tinrs and Error Instruments, it brings together multiple synthesis approaches in a single touch-based device. At its core, Smart Lab features advanced granular synthesis alongside more than 36 physical modelling engines, distributed across two powerful sound engines. The expressive touch interface includes motion recording, allowing you to capture gestures and replay them as evolving modulation—similar to a looper, but for movement and sound shaping. Smart Lab also functions as a versatile sound processor, offering over 15 experimental effects including delays and textures inspired by organic, fluid soundscapes—somewhere between an ambient machine and the playful unpredictability of a bubble-based synthesizer in the spirit of Rob Hordijk. Key features include: * Standalone touch interface with motion control and gesture memory * Dual synthesis engines with granular and physical modelling capabilities * 36+ physical modelling sound engines * Experimental delay and effects processor (15+ types) * External LFO input and audio input support * Built-in microphone for instant sound capture * Easy sound saving and recall * Designed for intuitive, hands-on exploration Smart Lab is currently in prototype stage, with a planned release in July–August. For more details, please refer to the manual and demonstration videos.
