In plain words

This is a drum machine VST plugin built with React and C++ that launched in January 2026. It allows musicians and producers to create drum sounds within their digital audio workstation. The developer plans to add new synthesis models and features over time and has established a Discord community for users to share their creations and provide feedback.

From the sources

NODES is a one-click modular FX plugin — every effect, every modulation, one huge patch. Now in Early Access: VST3 · AU for macOS and Windows, Linux coming soon.

The thing that actually changes your sound . Pretty straightforward... Reverb, delay, EQ, distortion, phasers, chorus, etc. You have countless choices of FX. This turns knobs for you in absolutely fucking crazy ways. Ready to go crazy style on the effects, and push them way beyond their limits . Once you have a bunch of audio FX and modulation going... the magic starts to happen . Everything starts to breathe, interact, and conspire together. Stack every topology into one patch. Audio cables cross, modulation cables sum at the node, and an attenuverter scales each connection. Build it until the CPU sweats . Six sliders shape what gets built. Crank Rage and the patch goes teeth-out. Push…from okaysynthesizer.com

    After two years of development, I'm super excited to release Beat Maker! This is my take on what I hope is the best free, web-based drum machine. My goal was to build something that was not only fun and easy to use for beginners but also powerful enough for serious producers. I did extensive research on existing drum machines, analyzed their UX, and tried to build something that adds something new. It's a nearly 100% client-side app, written in ClojureScript, and is a PWA so you can install it to your home screen for an app-like experience. Besides the standard grid editor, Beat Maker has…

  • I built a synthesizer based on 3D physics2025 · anukari.com · ▲512

    I've been working on the Anukari 3D Physics Synthesizer for a little over two years now. It's one of the earliest virtual instruments to rely on the GPU for audio processing, which has been incredibly challenging and fun. In the end, predictably, the GUI for manipulating the 3D system actually ended up being a lot more work than the physics simulation. So far I am only selling it direct on my website, which seems to be working well. I hope to turn it into a sustainable business, and ideally I'd have enough revenue to hire folks to help with it. So far it's been 99% a solo project, with…

    Hey HN! I wanted to share something I built over the last few weeks: isometric.nyc is a massive isometric pixel art map of NYC, built with nano banana and coding agents. I didn't write a single line of code. Of course no-code doesn't mean no-engineering. This project took a lot more manual labor than I'd hoped! I wrote a deep dive on the workflow and some thoughts about the future of AI coding and creativity: http://cannoneyed.com/projects/isometric-nyc
