A unique sound transformation toolkit, compiled to run anywhere.
The Composer's Desktop Project — hundreds of esoteric spectral, granular and waveset programs for offline audio processing — ported to run in node.js, as a plug-in, in Ableton Live and in the browser with a retro-computing themed node graph interface. Integrates the Faust compiler, for custom DSP development. Perfect for agentic sound design.
SonicSketch works like the UPIC of Iannis Xenakis or synthesizes images as sound. In particular, this application uses hand-drawn sketches to convert music and synthesizers.
Ecosystem in Pure Data designed for algorithmic and procedural composition, musique concrète, and experimental sound processing. It includes tools for slicing, dynamic envelopes, texture generation, and multi-channel management.
Pimp your native HTML players.
The Fluid Corpus Manipulation project (FluCoMa) instigates new musical ways of exploiting ever-growing banks of sound and gestures within the digital composition process, by bringing breakthroughs of signal decomposition DSP and machine learning to the toolset of techno-fluent computer composers, creative coders and digital artists.
AI powered experimental sampler. Explore your sound collection by creating your own constellations with thousands of sounds. Play in creative new ways interacting with the generated map and connecting with other software and hardware devices. Invent your own way for playing.

Archive of an era's sounds
Sema is a playground where you can rapidly prototype live coding mini-languages for signal synthesis, machine learning and machine listening.
Sema aims to provide an online integrated environment for designing both abstract high-level languages and more powerful low-level languages.
Estuary is a platform for collaboration and learning through live coding. It enables you to create sound, music, and visuals in a web browser. Key features include:
built-in tutorials and reference materials
a growing collection of different interfaces and live coding languages
support for networked ensembles (whether in the same room or distributed around the world)
text localization to an expanding set of natural languages
visual customization via themes (described by CSS)
