Excite high-fidelity strings, tubes, and bars to conjure resonant objects and acoustic environments: a blooming cello, a playful xylophone. From organic realism to spectral fantasy. Retune the voices to preset chords — including custom chords and microtonal scales. Connect a MIDI keyboard for polyphonic play and the full spectrum of its synthesis engine. Animate the contact mic and capture gestures with a built-in looper. Transform the resonators with Touch Modes — from a streaming granular processor, to a Bode frequency shifter, to a virtual-analog drum machine. Ghosts is a compact partner in sympathetic resonance, harmony and rhythm. Our summer sale for Ghosts is now sold out. Thank you to everyone who ordered one! Stay tuned for more information about the next restock. You can join our forum to receive an email heads up. - [Sparks](https://kinotoneaudio.com/products/sparks/) - Analog Harmonic Processor Sparks is a stereo overdrive, wavefolder, and state-variable filter that combines a fully analog signal path with advanced digital control. Every parameter is continuous and can be smoothly modulated by the LFO and envelope follower — letting you navigate vast spectrums of texture and motion. Color your signal in one sweep, from subtle grit to blown-out fuzz. Sculpt harmonics with a shape-shifting filter. Spin the LFO across the stereo field to create expansive analog soundscapes. You can even play Sparks as an instrument on its own with a built-in SID Chip-inspired synthesizer. ## Product categories - [Pedals](https://kinotoneaudio.com/product-category/pedals/) - [Merch](https://kinotoneaudio.com/product-category/merch/) - [Accessories](https://kinotoneaudio.com/product-category/accessories/)
