Sonicrama V2 is a wavetable synthesizer with a real-time physical cymatics engine, built by solo developer Paolo Zappalà under the AcusMagic brand. A GPU engine solves the modal equation of a real vibrating plate — Bessel mode shapes, Faraday-wave dispersion for liquids — and drives 400,000 particles with the audio, live and in 4K. For the sand plate, modal frequencies and spatial scale are physically exact, cross-checked against published Chladni-plate measurements.
The synth side: four oscillators, per-key meta-tuning across all 128 keys, .scl/.tun import and export, unison ×7, a modulation matrix, four Bézier envelopes and a multi-mode filter.
Formats: AU · VST3 · CLAP · standalone, macOS 11+ (universal). Windows planned.
Price: perpetual license; current EUR pricing is supplied live by Zaplab. Free demo that never expires.
Launch: September 8, 2026 · acusmagic.com/sonicrama

If you review instruments or make content around synths, tuning or generative visuals: leave your email and I'll send a full NFR license — the real thing, no expiry, zero obligation. 4K clips and signature presets available on request.
I read every request personally. No embargo, no expectations — if it's not for you, no reply needed.
Sonicrama is built by one person — me. For interviews I'm happy to talk about the research, the music, and the ideas behind the instrument — from Chladni's plates to why a synth should show you its own physics.
