Strangelight AudioNodes
Instruments 5 nodes
- Bass SynthSquare bass with a sine sub, filter, amplitude envelope and drive; all controls are patchable Group inputs.
- KickSine kick with a note-on-triggered ADSR, Filter and Drive. Decay is the envelope release. Drive spans 0–18 dB with a calibrated 9 dB default on its normalized control.
- Mono SynthSaw lead with filter, amplitude envelope and drive; built only from ordinary UI nodes and Group inputs.
- PadEight slow-envelope saw voices with shared Filter and Chorus. Enter the Group to edit the voice envelope using ordinary nodes.
- SnareTriangle body and filtered noise with separate note-on-triggered ADSRs. Both decay controls are ordinary release inputs.
Effects 12 nodes

- LimiterCatches peaks above a set ceiling.
- EQShapes tone with eight bands you drag directly on the display.
- FilterShapes tone with resonant low-pass, high-pass, band-pass, or notch.
- ChorusThickens and widens sound, with clean, ensemble, and vintage styles.
- TremoloPulses volume or pans stereo sound with shaped rhythmic movement.
- Modal ResonatorRings as a struck string, bar, plate, or tube when you excite it.

- Quantize PitchSnaps pitch into a key and scale on this branch of the patch.
- ScaleSets a key and scale for quantizers and chord nodes.
MIDI 29 nodes
- ClockDrives sync from its own BPM or your DAW's tempo and transport.
- Clock DecodeBreaks a Clock into tempo, play state, position, and meter.
- Clock DividerSets a Clock to straight, dotted, or triplet divisions.
- Euclidean SequencerSpreads hits evenly across steps for Euclidean rhythms.
- MIDI ClockSyncs the patch to MIDI clock from your DAW or external gear.
- Step SequencerPlays a 16-step note pattern in time with a Clock.
- CC EmitTurns a control signal into MIDI CC messages.
- CC ExtractorTurns up to four MIDI CCs, such as the mod wheel, into modulation.
- MIDI DecodeTurns MIDI into pitch, gate, velocity, sustain, and bend signals.
- MIDI EncodeTurns gate, pitch, and velocity signals into MIDI notes.

- MIDI PanicSends all-channel resets to clear stuck MIDI notes.
- MIDI ArpeggiatorTurns held notes into rhythmic patterns in time with a Clock.
- MIDI Channel FilterKeeps only one MIDI channel from an incoming stream.
- MIDI ChordTurns each note into a chord, following a Scale for in-key harmony.
- MIDI DelayEchoes notes as repeats, in milliseconds or synced to tempo.
- MIDI FilterFilters note ranges and selected MIDI message types.
- MIDI Gate LengthSets notes to a fixed length or stretches them longer.
- MIDI HumanizeLoosens timing and velocity for a less mechanical, played feel.
- MIDI LatchControls how notes stay held: toggle, track, or replace.
- MIDI ProbabilityLets each note through by chance for evolving, varied patterns.
- MIDI RandomizeVaries note pitch and velocity randomly, optionally kept in key.
- MIDI RatchetRepeats notes as fast bursts for rolls and stutters.
- MIDI Scale QuantizeSnaps notes into a chosen key and scale, or follows the project key.
- MIDI SplitPasses notes within a key range, for keyboard splits.
- MIDI TransposeShifts notes up or down by semitones or octaves.
- MIDI Velocity ClampScales velocity and keeps it between a minimum and maximum.
- MIDI Velocity CurveReshapes velocity response so playing feels softer or harder.
- MIDI Voice LimitCaps the number of notes that play at once, stealing oldest or newest.
