Glitch is a minimal environment for creating algorithmic music, modular synthesizers and live coding.

Glitch formulas are made of numbers, variables, functions and some common arithmetic operators that we've all learned at school.

To keep things simple, everything in Glitch is a number. Numbers are passed into functions, stored in variables, even sound waves are represented as a sequence of numbers.

Arithmetic proved to be an intuitive way of building modular synthesizers. Add 1 to a note - and it becomes one semitone higher, multiply the instrument by 2 - and it becomes two times louder.
