Layers engine
20+ available Instruments
Layers is designed for creating extended, textural sounds through real-time crossfading between multiple sound layers. The distinctive concentric circle interface puts a central blend control at the heart of the instrument, letting you seamlessly morph between 2-4 layers. Each ring represents a sound layer, allowing you to perform gestures across dynamic and timbral shifts that can be recorded as DAW automation. Layer-specific controls include blend mode selection, amplitude envelope shaping, random panning amount, and individual tuning—giving you precise control over how layers interact and evolve. From extended woodwind techniques to dusty synths on the edge of disintegration, Layers engine handles textural sound design that feels organic, evolving, and a little unpredictable.
