Create Songs, Samples, and Sounds with a Synthesizer

Even if you don’t know exactly how a synthesizer works, you’ve heard its unique imprint. This keyboard instrument has been used in nearly every genre of music. “Here Comes the Sun” by The Beatles, “Jump” by Van Halen, “Purple Rain” by Prince, “Blinding Lights” by The Weeknd, and “Shine On You Crazy Diamond” by Pink Floyd – all were created in part with synthesizers.

Synthesizers give artists unlimited creative agency to create any sound imaginable. It can do things like imitate a French horn, sample and tweak music hooks, and alter the human voice. But perhaps the coolest thing is that synthesizers make creating music easy for everyone. Even with no musical training, you can create songs, samples, and sounds by simply playing keys, turning knobs and adjusting sliders. When you’re ready to record the music hook in your head, add sound effects to your movie project, or share your songs on the internet, a synthesizer can make it possible.
