About 2G

2G is a sampler instrument modeled after early-2000s mobile phones. It uses Neural Synthesis to generate audio samples from text descriptions, which can then be edited and played as a sample inside the instrument. Users can import their own audio files in WAV, AIFF, FLAC, or MP3 formats up to 20 MB and 10 seconds long. The tool analyzes loops by comparing timbre, volume, and vibrato to find smooth transition points and presents up to three candidates for selection. Root note analysis detects consistent pitch and corrects fine-tuning discrepancies, marking samples as unpitched if no prominent pitch is found. The interface includes controls for trimming samples, adjusting attack and release dynamics, and modifying tone through brightness, detune, noise, quality, and formant settings. A small speaker simulation models the frequency range and diaphragm behavior of mobile device speakers, with voice coil heating compression applied during high-velocity playback. The instrument operates at 16 kHz mono by default but includes a switch to bypass this setting.

Frequently asked questions about 2G

What is Neural Synthesis in 2G?

Neural Synthesis is the AI-powered feature in 2G that generates audio samples from text descriptions. The generated audio can then be edited and played as a sample within the instrument.

Can I use 2G without generating sounds?

Yes. Users can import, edit, and play their own audio files without using credits or requiring a subscription. These operations consume zero credits and work offline.

Which file formats can I import into 2G?

2G supports importing WAV, AIFF, FLAC, and MP3 files. The maximum file size is 20 MB, and the duration must not exceed 10 seconds.

Is an internet connection required to use 2G?

An internet connection is required only for Neural Synthesis and credit verification. Local samples can be played and edited completely offline.

What happens if I run out of generation credits?

Credits are only needed to generate new sounds. Users can continue using saved sounds and their own samples indefinitely even after running out of credits.

Can I use the generated sounds in my music?

Yes. Generated sounds in 2G are royalty-free for personal and commercial music. However, they cannot be repackaged or resold as standalone samples or libraries.
