Every age has asked what sound does. This one can watch it happen — live, on any note.
AcusMagic makes sound tools for macOS: a wavetable synth, modulators, metering — each one built to let you perceive what sound is doing, in its own way. Perpetual licences, fully offline, demos that never expire.
Every frequency with its source.
For millennia, people have asked what sound does — to a room, to a body, to a mind. Every age has answered with its own lens, and no lens gets the last word. AcusMagic builds instruments with the sharpest lens of our time — physics, computed live — and a journal that lays it beside the others: measurement, tradition, calculation, each in its own words.
Pythagorean ratios, Chladni's plates, Kepler's harmonies, the overtone chants of monks, the traditions that treated tone as a doorway. Experiments in another language, run for thousands of years. I read them in their own words — and I say where each idea comes from.
Modal physics on a GPU, real-time simulation, live visualisation. The same figure the sand makes on a real plate, solved sixty times a second — so you can watch the physics with your own eyes, and weigh the old accounts for yourself.
Every instrument here is built to do two things at once: make something you can play, and open a question you didn't have before. I build them as a programmer, with the same instruments this century gives me — but the question they open isn't new.
— Paolo Zappalà
A wavetable synth with a real-time physical cymatics engine. Tune your own scales on all 128 keys, and watch your sound draw the real figure it makes on a vibrating plate — what you see is what you hear.
