Polymer 4+

Unlock the potential of your synths with Polymer, a Polyphonic Voice Distributor.

Polymer lets you play your monophonic synths together polyphonically, as if they're one giant mutant polysynth. And that's just the tip of the iceberg: you can alternate notes between different synths in monophonic sequences, layer pads and leads to create songs without leaving the keyboard, or experiment with the outer limits of modular paraphony.

Operating via MIDI, Polymer is compatible with almost any modern electronic instrument — modulars, samplers, polysynths, even virtual instruments through the macOS IAC Bus.

Polymer is an experimental utility that expands the horizons of your existing synth collection. You’ll never look at your studio the same way again.
