Bizar is a two-engine hybrid synthesizer module for the Ableton Move, running inside the Schwung framework. Its first oscillator chooses from engines including basic waves, two-operator FM, wavefolding, noise, wavetables, supersaw, harmonic, formant, virtual analog, waveshaping, chords, Karplus-Strong, modal and speech synthesis, while the second oscillator offers the same generators or processes the first through ring modulation, folding, filtering, bit crushing, comb and phaser filters, distortion or FM. A resonant low-, band- and high-pass filter with audio-rate filter FM, a looping cycling envelope, two LFOs, a twelve-column modulation matrix and four macros shape each of six voices, followed by three effect slots with delay, reverb, chorus, phaser, flanger, super unison, drive, crushing, EQ and compression.
Bizar also has a tempo-synced step sequencer with automation lanes and an arpeggiator, plus mono, unison and one-key chord modes, and responds to velocity, polyphonic aftertouch, the mod wheel and the sustain pedal. Factory presets share the same timbre and space macros, so the whole bank plays the same way from the Move's knobs. Schwung's browser-based Remote UI adds full parameter access, envelope and LFO curve editing, the sequencer editor, a patch browser that includes saved user patches, A/B compare and share links, and the same engine also runs as a synth in a web browser.
