Destiny Plus arc*C

Destiny Plus introduces arc*C, an avant-garde 4-voice polytonal instrument that redefines sound design through deep spectral manipulation, multidimensional sequencing, and generative control. Designed for artists seeking new frontiers in synthesis, arc*C arcs between two independent synthesis enginesโ€”a spectral core and a phase distortion coreโ€”within each voice. Featuring a 32-complex-envelope modulation matrix, four 3D lattice sequencers, and innovative DSP, arc*C is both sonically rich and technologically groundbreaking.

A powerful AMOLED display, a drawing app interface with Google Gemini API integration (see below), and an impressive preset library round out this futuristic sound creation tool. Whether sculpting drone textures or polymetric rhythms, arc*C offers unmatched control and complexity in a Eurorack-inspired standalone format.

Google Gemini API and arc*C app

Arc*C was designed to be integrated with its paired drawing app. Users can draw using colours mapped to parameters and create unique sound-design patches with their eyes. These colours and drawings can be individually looped and timed. The app can also use a userโ€™s Google Gemini API key, letting the user collaborate with a digital parasitic entity that draws from descriptions. It may not create perfect depictions, but it symbolises a shared reality to map, augment and control timbreโ€”an infection of perception and agency, shifting control from mind to information flows.
