Whetstone Whine

Spectral wavetable · 6ykv7v89

Play it on your computer keyboard: A–K (white keys), W E T Y U (black keys), Z/X octave down/up.

Beginning as a smooth, simple tone, it gathers ringing overtones as you sweep through it, sharpening into a hard whine that opens up toward the top end. With very little weight below, it stays lean and cutting — a piercing melodic line that slices over dense backing.
