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.
