IMAGINARY FRIEND w
An Experimental Full-Modular Complex Synthesizer Imaginary Friend is an experimental, fully modular complex synthesizer created for those who want to go beyond conventional synthesis and enter a world of unpredictable rhythms, evolving drones, aggressive textures, deep basses, strange resonances, and endless sonic exploration. It can be rhythmic or chaotic, aggressive or delicate, minimalistic or completely overwhelming. It can create hypnotic pulses, dark drones, unstable textures, percussive patterns, screaming resonances, deep sub frequencies, and sounds that seem to evolve on their own. The idea behind Imaginary Friend is simple: give you a powerful collection of interconnected sound-shaping tools and let you discover what happens when you start pushing, modulating, mixing, and interacting with them. There are three different sound sources that can be combined, layered, and mixed to create complex and constantly evolving sounds. WAVE The Wave section is the sonic playground of Imaginary Friend. Explore an endless variety of sounds and textures, from raw and organic tones to strange, experimental timbres. Use it as a foundation, push it into more extreme territory, or combine it with the other sound sources to create something completely unexpected. SUB The Sub section delivers a deep and powerful sine-wave oscillator, bringing weight, depth, and presence to the sound. Use it to create massive low-end foundations, deep drones, powerful bass frequencies, or subtle subsonic movement underneath more complex textures. FX RESONATOR The FX Resonator is where things can become truly unpredictable. Use it as a resonant effects processor to transform and reshape your sound, or push it into self-oscillation and turn it into a sound generator in its own right. The resonator can become an instrument within the instrument — producing tones, feedback, ringing textures, unstable harmonics, and evolving sonic events that can be controlled and manipulated in real time. ⸻ EXPERIMENTAL LFO At the heart of the modulation possibilities is the Experimental LFO, designed to bring movement and life to your patches. Choose between different waveform shapes, including: * Square * Sine * Random But the Experimental LFO is more than a traditional modulation source. With its 8/16-step random sequence loop function, it can generate repeating patterns that sit somewhere between modulation, sequencing, and controlled chaos. Create rhythmic modulation, evolving patterns, unexpected changes, or repeating loops that become the foundation of an entire patch. ⸻ CLOCK DIVIDER The Clock Divider opens the door to rhythmic experimentation and complex timing relationships. Divide incoming clock signals to create slower, evolving rhythmic structures and synchronize different parts of your patch. Use it to create pulses, repeating patterns, polyrhythmic movement, or subtle modulation that unfolds over time. Whether you’re building a precise rhythmic sequence or something completely unpredictable, the Clock Divider gives you another layer of control over the movement of your sound. ⸻ LOW-PASS GATE The Low-Pass Gate brings together dynamics and tone shaping in a beautifully organic way. Use it to shape the attack and decay of your sounds, create natural-sounding plucks and pulses, or smoothly control evolving drones and textures. The Low-Pass Gate is especially powerful when combined with the modulation and random functions of Imaginary Friend, allowing your sounds to breathe, pulse, and change organically. ⸻ DUO ATTENUATOR The Duo Attenuator gives you flexible control over your modulation signals. Scale, adjust, and fine-tune your control voltages to create exactly the amount of movement you need. Use it to tame extreme modulation, create subtle changes, or route your signals into more complex interactions between the different sections. Sometimes the smallest adjustment can completely transform a patch. ⸻ JOYSTICK CONTROLLER The Joystick Controller turns Imaginary Friend into a highly expressive instrument. Instead of simply setting parameters and letting the synthesizer run, you can interact with the sound directly. Move through different sonic dimensions, perform changes in real time, and explore the space between control and unpredictability. The joystick makes it possible to perform the synthesizer as an instrument — shaping transitions, manipulating textures, creating dramatic changes, and discovering new interactions as you play. ⸻ A SYNTHESIZER FOR EXPLORATION Imaginary Friend is not designed to fit into a single category. It can be a rhythmic machine. A drone generator. A deep bass instrument. A source of experimental textures. A chaotic modulation system. A resonating feedback machine. A minimal sound generator. Or something completely different. The combination of multiple sound sources, experimental modulation, random sequencing, clock division, resonator feedback, low-pass gate dynamics, attenuation, and expressive joystick control creates a system where every patch can become a journey into the unknown. Start with a simple sound. Add movement. Introduce randomness. Divide the clock. Push the resonator. Turn up the feedback. Move the joystick. And see where it takes you. Imaginary Friend is an invitation to experiment — to create sounds you didn’t plan, discover interactions you didn’t expect, and find new musical possibilities hidden inside the machine. It can be your rhythm. Your drone. Your noise. Your pulse. Your chaos. Your Imaginary Friend. See the demo and enter the world of Imaginary Friend.
