What is SpectMorph?
-------------------
SpectMorph is a free software project which allows to analyze samples of
musical instruments, and to combine them (morphing). It can be used to
construct hybrid sounds, for instance a sound between a trumpet and a
flute; or smooth transitions, for instance a sound that starts as a
trumpet and then gradually changes to a flute.

SpectMorph ships with many ready-to-use instruments which can be
combined using morphing.

SpectMorph is implemented in C++ and licensed under the GNU LGPL version 3

Integrating SpectMorph into your Work
-------------------------------------
SpectMorph is currently available for Linux, Windows and macOS users.

- VST Plugin, especially for proprietary solutions that don't support LV2.
  (Available on Linux and 64-bit Windows/macOS)
