​@Amb1entSkyTemple first thing I thought of when I read this comment

[@ufalsalman]

I think every DAWs imaginable are just Desmos on steroids

[@LWmusik]

As a music software developer, you're kinda right but you're also kinda wrong, it's hard to explain. For example, I could probably make a DAW, but I still have yet to learn math and Desmos is kind of a mystery to me lol. I guess I know the math but just in the language of computers rather than the language of classic math stuff?

[@isaiahnabatian7161]

As a Reason 13 user here, y e s

[@KernelHaxxor]

​@@LWmusik As an audio software developer, while calculus, linear algebra and other stuff is important, they should not stop you from learning in any way. Basic concepts of overlap-add buffers, format-specific things like controllers, events and so on, GUI, they don't require math. As for actual synthesis, you need minimal math by the way. You can either just combine partials for additive synthesis, or for subtractive synthesis, just begin with a procedural waveform (may be created using just logic or math, really) and go subtractive on it using filters or anything else. It's just important to never let anyone stop you, and if you don't know math in its classic sense, it's not an issue either! Keep creating. ^^

[@KernelHaxxor]

It would be more correct to say that every procedural synthesizer plugin is just a calculator on steroids, the DAWs usually have other responsibilities =]

[@tomsterbg8130]

Too bad they hide the Desmos that exists in every sound generating piece of code behind a stupid UI...

[@joe_z]

The fact that the chords change so slowly like this makes it feel like it's an organ playing to a church chant. The plagal cadence at the end seals the deal - I literally heard the "amen" in my head during chords 25 and 26 (1:12 onward).

[@user-ub8vx8zd1d]

[@nikosv7230]

These chords are gorgeous. I was expecting most of them but the octave spread and the timing somehow made it more magical

[@allanwernermusic]

A album of this would be incredible, ive already listened a couple of times

[@berrynote]

Thats a great idea!

[@dreamland923]

A berry good idea

[@robertglogowski777]

This is so indescribably cool. When that first bass note hits at 0:48, it made me feel a special kinda way

[@PauLtus_B]

I've simulated waves in Desmos before, basics like sine, triangles, squares and saws but also played with things like phase modulation. …but I don't have any idea how to actually get a sound out of it.

[@berrynote]

I use the Tone function :]

[@McStebb]

[@imnotgoodbye5910]

[@Capewearer]

You don't need strict understanding of music theory to compose music. There are many demoscene folks and self-taught guys who made cool tracks. E.g. Erang.

it's interesting how, with pure sine waves, you can both hear and see the phases shifting - now try the same piece but recorded with just intonation for comparison 😄

[@IITRIGGERDII]

P L E A S E make a video breaking down how this was done and what most of it means, at least like in general terms; I've been trying to replicate this myself because I'm really interested but I'm lost because desmos wants me to assign a val to P and H ;-;

[@serox8887]

This would be a great Minecraft Soundtrack

[@N.Dwastaken]

So let me explain what this guy is doing. What is considered a sine graph/sine wave in maths is considered as a fundamental tone or frequency. This means a singular pitch such as the A4 (440hz) or C3 (middle C) notes on a piano or keyboard with no harmonics and thus the frequency or tone may sound flat/dull at times. When you play multiple musical notes together over various intervals you get a chord. A chord in audio physics represents a complex tone, that is - one which is made out of multiple harmonics and frequencies + the fundamental frequency or in the context of a musical chord, the root. If we apply music theory to this, they have applied various skills such as when and when not to use the tonic, modulation and perhaps various voicings and inversions for better harmonic flow. So shout out to them for being able to do this while it took me 2 hours to plot y= x^2 on demos 👏😅😂🎛

[@berrynote]

Nice explanation!

[@jamesbernards8409]

This is beautiful my guy. I've only been using desmos to get through my electronics work. I'd love to learn how you've done this!
