  • Load in your own sounds.
  • Save and load your work.
  • BPM settings, or “strum mode” for controlling tempo.
  • Up to 6 sounds can be loaded at once.
  • Each sound has its own 32 step frequency modulation sequencer.
  • Global Distortion setting.

User guide

glitchDS is organized into different pages.

  • Sequencer Control - It has a 32 step sequencer based on the Game of Life. After 32 mutations, the sequence starts over.
