Modalys

Sound Processing

Modalys is an environment that lets the user create completely novel virtual instruments based on “simple” physical objects such as strings, plate, tubes, membranes, plectrum, bows, or hammers, and making them interact.

It is also possible to build objects with complex forms using a 3D mesh. Modalys brings these objects to life by calculating their sonic vibrations.

By combining different physical, resonating objects and by specifying the type of interaction (striking, rubbing, using a mouthpiece or a bow, etc.), the user creates a virtual instrument and then decides how it will be played and controlled. Max and OpenMusic communicate directly with the Modalys synthesis engine via intuitive graphical interfaces.

This professional training program is offered as an interactive online class.

"The training went very well. Congratulations to the entire teaching and organizational team.” Hend Z., musician
