Anyone ever use Sunvox to make sound effects?

Technically it could be done... 


I can make plenty of noise with it, although I don't know how easily I could reproduce the specific sounds I might be looking for. I know someone out there can. What it primarily would take is an understanding of sound equipment, and how to hook it up and what settings to put on it, because that's essentially what sunvox emulates.


Free, open source, light weight. Fun program.

It's not free on Android. I wonder why.


I usually use Reason From Propellerhead Software to make something, exporting it to wav format to either pass it by Magix Audio cleaning suite or pass it through Audacity or both.


Audacity is a free and open source editor I truly can recommend. Reason though cost a lot of money and it is too complex, for someone who wants to make sound effects.


If you wanna make sound in either the additive or subtractive way, it is better to use something ready, than make your own modular synth from scratch.


That's because the second approach is for experimenting with stuff to find new interesting sounds, while if you are looking for something simple, you can make your life easy usingthe following one:

I mean okay. Assume you Add oscillators, pass them through filters, add LFOs and some effects, to end up to what?


If you are looking for complex sound, that's the path.


Otherwise, make your life easier.


Want to make unique effects?


I got a suggestion no matter what you will use.


How about making simple ones. then layer them one over the other using Audacity?


Edit:


"It's not free on Android. I wonder why."


Now I think I know why.


Correct me if I am wrong but I believe it might be a freeware, but it is not open source.


You see open source software comes with certain licenses that grant you rights on the software others prohibit. This software license is just a copyright notice and attributions.  The license copyrights the code to the developer and also gives attribution to code that has been used with it, made by others, without stating any special rights.

Right, I was mistaken about open source. I thought it was, but you're right.


Edit: I regularly use Audacity, mainly for cutting and snipping tracks to the perfect length for my game, so I can use the parts that I Want.
