Demo
Try DARKSTAR in your browser
A live, playable preview running on a Web Audio engine. It's lighter than the full native engine — fewer voices, less headroom — but the core synthesis, the workflow and the complete factory library are the same.
Technology preview - 5,000 factory patches loaded
- C++ core · WASM
- Web MIDI
Sound plays through your default output. Click into the synth first if your browser blocks audio until you interact.
Before you dive in
A few terms you'll meet inside
DARKSTAR has three signature systems with their own names. Here's what they mean before you go looking for them in the synth above.
- SING
Singularities
The patches in the browser at the top of the synth. Loading one changes the whole sound at once — oscillators, filter and modulation together.
- ANOM
Anomalizer
Hit "Anomalize!" to nudge the current patch into a related but different-sounding variation, instead of tweaking every knob by hand.
- SHIFT
Stellar Shift
Morphs the whole patch from Patch A into Patch B over a duration you set, with up to 64 checkpoints along the way. Save any checkpoint as its own patch, or record the whole transition as a sound.
About the browser build
- Factory library
- All 5,000 factory patches are loaded here — the same library the full version ships with.
- Audio path
- The same C++ core as the desktop build, running through WebAssembly and an AudioWorklet.
- Status
- Technology preview. The first working host adapter is in; broader browser acceptance is still in progress.
- MIDI
- Plug in a controller and play — availability depends on your browser’s Web MIDI support.
