This sounds very cool. A great synth to play with: so many possibilities to try out.

Hey, thanks! I’m about 4 months into learning all of this music/coding/mixing stuff and I feel like I’ve gotten a much better hang of things in the last couple of weeks. Would love to see what someone with your dev/musical chops would do with this!
this is my birthday week so I am hoping to drop something neat onto the forum each day - I have something else brewing with :fm synth as well.
Happy Tuesday
Spacy Trip - nice done … but I had to choose another Synths, because the " :organ_tonewheel " Synth you use, was not available in my Sonic Pi Version 3.2.2 (Linux) — what version do you use?
Tonewheel was only introduced in version 4.0
Yea, thought so 
Do you know, if there is a 4.xx .deb for Linux/Ubuntu available?
I did this one some time ago Sonic Pi 4.3 installer for Ubuntu 22.04 Please look at the video first as it suggests.

Woah, I was not expecting all of this to come out of the tonewheel.

Yeah I was kinda blown away. This script in particular is really fun to slowly modify. I kinda just chose an arbitrary point in my jam to post it. I wish I had a nicer computer because I can’t really screen record while running any sort of music software.
