Rithmatic

Every memory pad opens pre-loaded with a real DX7 voice, ready to play the moment you launch. No Volca required, no setup, 36,000+ more voices free in the library.

Rithmatic is a DX7-family FM synthesizer and patch library, with a six-operator patch builder you can hear with nothing plugged in. Browse, build and play patches from a library of tens of thousands — connect a Korg Volca FM2 over USB and it becomes a full two-way editor for the hardware too.

A LIBRARY THAT SHIPS FULL • 36,118 unique DX7 voices are bundled with the app. No download, no account, no network — they are there the first time you open it. • Search by name, or filter by what a patch actually sounds like: family, character, algorithm, brightness. • Mark favorites, arrange collections, and audition anything — no hardware required. • Every voice is credited to the archive it came from, and to its designer where a bank names one. See the in-app attribution list.

PLAY IT INSTANTLY — NO HARDWARE NEEDED • A DX7-compatible synthesis engine runs inside the app, so you can play any patch from the on-screen keyboard. • Every memory pad starts loaded with a real voice from the bundled ROM — open the app and there's already something to play.

PATCH BUILDER • Edit all six operators on a graph you can see: the algorithm, the cables, feedback, and each operator's envelope and ratio. • Draw envelopes directly on the amplitude field. • Save to your library, send to the edit buffer, or write to a numbered slot.

WITH A VOLCA FM2 CONNECTED • Read the FM2's current patch, send to keys, or write to any of its 64 memory slots. • Back up all 16 sequencer patterns and restore them. • Capture the whole instrument to a snapshot and put it back later. • Import your own banks — standard DX7 .syx and .sys files.

BEYOND THE VOLCA FM2 • Set the target to DX7-compatible in Settings and Rithmatic will drive a DX7 (mkI/II), TX7, TX802 or the original Volca FM over standard Yamaha voice dumps. Those are send-only instruments, so the patterns and snapshot features are Volca FM2 only.

Rithmatic works offline, keeps your files on your device, and collects no personal data — no account, no analytics, no ads.

The library, the patch builder, the pre-loaded pads and the in-app synth all work the moment you open the app, with nothing plugged in. Connect a Korg Volca FM2 over USB and the instrument features unlock too.
