UWdeVSTTapping
Tap hardness gives the start of the note an intention. Even attacks can form the framework of a groove or support a melodic phrase.
Chapman Stick
Low end and melody answer each other.
A synthesis approach inspired by tapping. Shape contact, sustain and pickup colour to connect a low foundation with a higher line.

Explore the interface
A conversation between two registers.
Register balance
Bass balance and Dual register explore the relationship between low and high. Write complementary phrases rather than lines that cover each other.
Electric colour
Pickup tone and Pickup drive shape the signal’s character. Keep a clear colour for counterpoint or bring out the grain for a riff.
New demos coming soon.
The audio engines have been reworked. The previous recordings have been removed while their replacements are prepared.
Laurel Canyon · California
A bass and a counter-melody with a shared character.
A starting point for funk, progressive rock or a two-voice electronic arrangement.
Lay the foundation
Write a short low line with a few accents around the drums.
Leave a response
Add a higher phrase in the low line’s rests. Compare registers before keeping both lines running.
Let the motif grow
Open up sustain or colour in the chorus, then return to tighter articulation for the verse.
One attack. Two registers.
Explore the five native interface views, from playing controls to the final treatments.
01 / PLAY
From fingertip contact to electric colour.
Six controls bring together tapping attack, register balance and pickup tone.
The tapping response
Tap hardness and String sustain let you compare a detached motif with a more connected phrase. Find the articulation first.
Two roles in the arrangement
Bass balance and Dual register shape the playing balance. Let a higher response complement a simple low foundation.
The grain of the pickups
Pickup tone and Pickup drive shape the electric colour. Adjust them with the drums playing to keep the notes clear.
Bring it into your studio.

Measured processing time per audio block in an offline VST3 host, after warm-up. Three 60-second renders per case; 128, 256 and 512-sample blocks. Exposed reverb, delay, chorus, flanger and phaser controls were toggled; other processing kept its preset settings. The stress setting was selected from the programs exposed to this host.
