sonicLAB's Fundamental software instrument is inspired by the earliest days of electronic music. Before electronics merged with traditional ideas of music-making, synthesized music relied on scientific instruments that happened to make sound. Fundamental gives you a complete studio of yesteryear, with eight banks of sine waves, carefully sampled and modeled on vintage sine wave generators.

The Buchla Thunder is a wonderful match for this non-traditional sound experimentation. Check out our video on how you can get hands on with the building blocks of synthesized sound.

sonicLAB founder Dr. Sinan Bökesoy demonstrates a key feature in Fundamental 1.1: control over the fundamental frequency and the harmonic ratio. These two sliders alone provide a means to explore a preset's vast sonic space.
