01 / MEET THE INSTIGATOR
It starts
with a
little poke.
Every track starts with something small. A note you meant to play. Or one you didn’t.
Play a note below. We’ll carry it into the loop at the end.
01 / FROM NOTE TO INSTRUMENT
The creature is the control.
Pluck a string. Change its tension. Hear the sound respond. In Tonkro, the workshop is a playable instrument—not a picture sitting above the keys.
Sound engines · Hands-on parameters · Playable keyboard
02 / THEN SOMETHING STARTED TAPPING
One little note.
A few new friends.
Rumble heard your note. Now it needs somewhere to land. A kick, a little space, a beat that pulls you forward.
Switch a few steps on. Leave a little room between them.
02 / GIVE YOUR IDEA A BACKBONE
A beat you can get your hands on.
Move from that first note to drums. Shape the hit, play the pads, and find the spaces that make a rhythm feel like yours.
Drum synthesis · Performance pads · Sequencing
03 / A HAPPY LITTLE ACCIDENT
A bit of grit.
A lot of character.
Spool keeps the sounds you almost threw away. In the app, samples become instruments. Here, give your melody a little colour before we bring the pieces together.
Try a little colour on this note. Clean, warm, or wonderfully unruly.
03 / FOLLOW THE HAPPY ACCIDENT
Small moves. A different world.
Turn time, tone and feedback into part of the performance. Effects have their own workshops, with the controls right where your hands expect them.
Effects · Modulation · Direct control
04 / LOOK WHAT YOUR LITTLE IDEA BECAME
Now it’s your world.
Press play.
Your note. Your rhythm. Your colour.
