What you can do in PatchWorld

Start simple, then go deep: play instruments, build your setup, patch sound into worlds, perform together, and connect your studio tools.

Play music right away

Jump into ready-made jam rooms and an ever-growing library of synths, drum machines, sequencers, effects, and community-made instruments. Start simple, make something quickly, then go deeper when you are ready.

Build your dream studio

Create a studio in 3D with instruments, modules, effects, and worlds from the ever-growing PatchWorld library. Arrange them, tweak them, connect them, remix devices made by other patchers, and make them your own.

Patch sound into worlds

Connect sound, visuals, physics, logic, avatars, and world behavior directly in 3D space. Inspired by Pure Data, Max/MSP, and TouchDesigner, PatchWorld turns patching into a spatial creation language for instruments, live visuals, games, and reactive worlds.

Perform, film, and create together

PatchWorld is built for real-time multiplayer creation. Jam with friends, host workshops, rehearse, teach, explore community worlds, stream sessions, film performances from desktop, or use PatchWorld as part of a physical live setup.

PatchWorld connected to a physical keyboard, MIDI controllers, and modular music devices

Connect your tools

Connect MIDI, OSC, Ableton Link, external controllers, DAWs, and hybrid studio workflows so PatchWorld can become part of your live setup, production workflow, or streaming system.

PatchWorld is a fantastic space for researching and building unique accessible instruments, supported by a wonderful community of virtual music engineers.

Damian Mills, researcher and musician

If you like to play music, beginner or pro, this is your app. The community is incredibly alive and welcoming, and connecting PatchWorld with Ableton and TouchDesigner opens endless possibilities.

@Monchi, musician and developer

PatchWorld enables a playful, collaborative approach to music-making beyond the limits of traditional instruments and classroom settings.

Leonard Bruns, researcher and music educator

I came for the music, but stayed for the immersive visuals and creative possibilities. It pulls you in fast, then becomes impossible to put down once you realize how deep it goes.

Tom Vigal (@Hanumanatee), musician & visual artist

PatchWorld made me buy a VR headset and quickly became my most-used app for building musical instruments. Space, movement, and even the world itself become part of the instrument.

Enrico Benato, conservatory student & performer

Excellent tool for music production. DAW integration and an active Discord community make PatchWorld feel like the future of VR music production.

@Magnet, music producer

Musical worlds you can inhabit, interact with, and become part of. A completely psychedelic, immersive experience.
