ShadowTune makes synthesizers and audio tools for sound designers and producers: the GammaWave hybrid synth and its GammaWaveFX insert effect, the upcoming WRAITH voice synth, and free firmware for pocket hardware.
A subtractive / FM synth with 3-layer granular FX, the Hearth saturation engine and full microtuning — plus GammaWaveFX, the same engine as an insert effect. VST3 · AU · Standalone; free demo, full version from $1.
Built on the GammaWave engine for rage, trap and dark melodic leads: one CHARACTER morph sweeps a voice from flute to singer, choir and scream, and RAGE decides how hard it fights back.
Replacement firmware for the M-VAVE FM-1 with a GammaWave-style screen, 8 synth engines and a 49-genre song generator — plus a Web Studio and an emulator in your browser.
ShadowTune is the audio label of PonderByte, an independent studio making simulation games, audio DSP and interactive apps.
Every instrument is written in C++ from the ground up and tested by rendering real audio — so what you hear is what the engine does.
