drawbar

Your Nord's sounds, in a window. See what is on your computer and on your instrument side by side, edit programs, samples and pianos, and send them back. Runs in the browser or on the desktop.

drawbar with an instrument attached and a piano library open in its editor

Open drawbar.app in Chrome or Edge, or run the desktop app:

nix run github:jmoo/drawbar#drawbar
cargo install drawbar
  • Drop Nord files in, or connect an instrument and read what it holds.
  • Edit a program on a panel laid out like the instrument's, or any field in a table.
  • Trim a piano library until it fits, build a sample instrument from WAVs, and listen to either before you send it.
  • Queue your changes and send them in one go, with a review of what each one replaces.

Start with The window in the user guide, and read What is supported before trusting alpha software with sounds you cannot re-create.

Building

nix develop, then from crates/: cargo run -p drawbar and cargo test -p drawbar. nix build .#drawbar-web makes the browser bundle. The rest is in Building from source.
