Description
Iota is a tone generator, which is to say, a synth for your pedalboard. It is designed to make playing easy: regardless of your skill level or familiarity with synthesizers, you’ll quickly be making fun sounds, and running them through all your favorite effects. Pick the character of your sound, some notes, and some parameters for how Iota moves through those notes, then set it in motion. Music theory? Sound design? Fret not, just have some fun!
