Orbiters Overview

Orbiters are instruments you play.

They transform sound in real time, letting xPlorers explore Audios inside Entangled Worlds through movement, gesture, and modulation.

What an Orbiter does​

An Orbiter connects three things:

  • An Audio (what you listen to)
  • An Entangled World (the context you explore)
  • An Orbiter (the instrument that transforms sound)

When an Orbiter is open, you can:

  • Play and loop the Audio
  • Move in three axes (X, Y, Z) to transform the sound
  • Switch dimensions (1 / 2 / 3) to access different transformation setups
  • Add modulation using the Cosmic LFO per axis

Dimensions​

Each Orbiter contains three dimensions.

Dimensions are not “presets”. Each dimension can map X, Y, and Z to different audio processes designed by the Orbiter creator.

Some controls are global (for example: transport, loop, and often volume). Most performance controls (XYZ, Cosmic LFO, sensors) are dimension-specific.

What this section covers​

  • Release: create and publish a new Orbiter
  • Edit: update an existing Orbiter after it’s been created
  • Interact: play an Orbiter on an Audio and explore its dimensions
