What it does

Makes sound effects from a plain description. You type something like "short laser zap with echo" and hear it at once, with a live waveform and a view of each layer that went into the sound. Sliders tune pitch, length, brightness, echo and volume, and a Variation button gives a fresh take while the same words always bring back the same sound. Game makers and teachers can download the result as a WAV file in common quality settings.

Good to know

It knows a fixed vocabulary of 20 base sounds and 18 modifiers (plus synonyms), so it can only build sounds from those.
