The Instrument-Released!

The Instrument
A downloadable tool for Windows, macOS, and Linux

Hello!

I am very excited to say this devlog marks the release of The Instrument. The Instrument gives you the power to procedurally create any sound you want.  Here are some of my favorite features:

Oscilloscope

This fun node displays signal data in a way that is very easy to understand.  (The "dynamic" wires move with the signal running through them so that is another way to visually see the signal)

Control Nodes

these nodes give a tactile way to control the signals traveling through the wires. Additionally, if given a label, they will show up on a Module node when one is created from a file.

Module Nodes

The Instrument allows you to insert past-made systems as their own nodes. Check the utils folder for lots of useful modules! (insert modules using "edit>insert module" and selecting the file you want to insert or by drag and dropping the file into the window)

Those are just my favorite features. Theoretically, ANY sound can be made with The Instrument. Though I would like to state that I am an engineer not a musician so this may not be the best program for making music though it is possible. That being said, if you a re a musician using The Instrument, let me know of any features that would make it easier to use! 

Though The Instrument is released, I have lots of quality of life improvements planned so stay tuned. Thank you for your interest!
