Beast Screenshots

In the "Routing View" the modular synthesis can be controlled. Here, we edit the synthetic lead instrument of the demo song.

The track editor allows editing arrangements of parts and instrument assignments.

Notes can be entered using the "Piano Roll". Below, also midi control events can be edited. Here you see the lead melody of the demo song.

FFT Scopes allow visualization of audio signals, which is useful for getting an impression of the frequency spectrum that a network, effect or instrument produces at some point. Here you see how a Reverb Effect blurs the frequency content (upper spectrum: without reverb, lower spectrum: with reverb).

BEAST has a builtin wave editor for viewing samples used in synthesis networks and songs.

We support configurable skins in many widgets since version 0.6.0, so BEAST can be customized to look the way you want it to look.

The audio mixer is used to create a mix of the individual song tracks. Here, you see the mixer settings of "Industrial Drive" song, which can be downloaded from the Sound Archive.

The pattern editor is still being worked on. BEAST is, as far as we know, quite exceptional in offering both, a "Piano Roll" and a "Pattern View" for the same notes, so each musician can choose the editing style he likes best.

The modular synthesis is not only used for instruments, it is also used for effects. Here you see the post processing chain of a song, containing a reverb and compressor.
