LILT

a musical grid

Watch with sound on YouTube

A musical grid for small computers. Place notes on a sixteen by eight grid and let them loop, then shape the sound with echo, space, pace and wobble. Nine voices in three sound banks, from glassy and soft to a pocket of chiptune.

Every sound is generated as it plays. Headphones are worth it.
