The Summoning — turn any sound into a playable pad

The Summoning is a free, browser-based tool that turns any audio into a playable instrument. Offer a track and it conjures the track’s sustained voice — a pad, a synth, a held tone — into a spirit you can play, layer and record. Everything runs on your machine; nothing is uploaded.

What it does

The Summoning takes a moment of sound and stretches it into an instrument. Feed it a track and it captures a sustained tone — a pad, drone or held note — that you can play across the keyboard, layer with itself and record into your own loops and textures. A fast way to make ambient beds, evolving pads and drones from samples you already have.

How to use it

The rite conjures its sustained voice into a playable spirit.
Play it across your keyboard; layer and shape it.
