Early preview

What SynSound can't do yet

SynSound is new. Editing, mixing, bouncing and saving work end to end; these are next on the list.

Choose an audio interface

It records from your computer's default input and plays through its default output for now.

Record a MIDI keyboard

Draw and edit MIDI today; playing notes in from a keyboard is coming.

Open Pro Tools sessions

AAF, OMF and .ptx sessions don't open yet: bring in the audio files instead.

Privacy

Your sessions never leave your computer

Unreleased songs, voice-overs and client mixes stay on your own device. SynSound records, mixes and bounces everything locally, in the browser or in the app.

No uploads

The online version works on files inside your browser. Nothing is sent to us.

Works offline

Once it has loaded, SynSound keeps working without an internet connection.

No account, no subscription

Nothing to sign up for, no licence server and no telemetry.

Standard files

WAV, AIFF, FLAC, MIDI and MusicXML out, so your work is never locked in.

Get SynSound

Use it online, or download it

Version 0.6.0, early preview. Free, with no account. For recording and plugins, the Mac or Windows app is best.

FAQ

Questions, answered

Is SynSound really free?

Yes. SynSound is free while it's an early preview, with no account and no subscription.

Can I record with it?

Yes, from your computer's default audio input. Choosing a specific audio interface and buffer size, and recording from a MIDI keyboard, are coming next.

Will my plugins work?

On the Mac and Windows apps, VST3 and CLAP plugins load, and on the Mac Audio Units too, each with its own editor and saved with the session. The browser version uses the 27 built-in plugins.

Can it open Pro Tools sessions?

Not yet. AAF, OMF and .ptx sessions don't open, so bring in the session's audio files instead. MIDI files and audio in all common formats import.

Are my files uploaded anywhere?

No. The online version opens files straight from your computer and works on them in the browser. Nothing is sent to Syntera Labs.

What does early preview mean?

SynSound is new and changing fast. Save your work often and keep copies of important sessions and recordings.
