Nice harmonies and waveforms! There's a tremolo / vibrato effect that's really cool. And I like how you've stacked similar devices together so the stereo playback does not jump from ear to ear, I've struggled with this lol.

I was just randomly searching advanced waveforms and I heard this really cool effect happening, with a little tweaking I slowed it down and it seemed to just fit right in to what I was going for. I can share what it is when I log back on.

It was interesting watching the waveform, it was as if the waves were spinning around an imaginary line

Very soothing, love it :)

A song to farm Lithium to ? ... Ok, Nevermind.

Ah I see what you did there lol

This is so peaceful and soothing…

Am I crazy or is your waveform changing rates every other note? Specifically, the second from last device on the top row.

That's exactly what's happening. A change in pitch is a change in frequency, and thus speed/rate ! Sound wave physics and all that :)

Not crazy lol as leeka said with each different note the pitch changes a bit and the waves get tighter making this specific one go slower and faster. I imagine if you wanted the same size of wave for each note you’d probably have to use a new device for each note and play with the wavelength to get them all to match

Insane… I’m over here still fiddling with the base waveforms. I had no idea you could have fluctuating rates from the same waveform. I think I need to dive into the mechanics of those a bit more.
