Draw a shape.
Play its sound.

An instrument that starts with your finger.

Draw a line, a loop, or something nobody has seen before. Watch it become a metal sculpture you can touch and play. Each shape has its own resonances.

Hear what one change does.

Open Workshop to compare a physical edit with your original drawing. Keep a version, then record strikes, cuts and repairs while the instrument rings. Edit the recorded actions and replay the take from its starting drawing. Try an acoustics experiment, or export the default family of eight related WAV sounds with the drawing and recipes.

Play it in your music app.

Add Sound With Bones as an AUv3 instrument in a compatible host. Open your drawing in the plug-in and play it from a MIDI keyboard or track. Your host saves the instrument with its project.

Keep what you make.

Record your performance. Save instruments and songs in your library. Import, export, and share with your name attached.

Hear your drawing sing.

Every shape can play a song. Soft Geometry and Twinkle, Twinkle are free. Sound With Bones Plus adds Für Elise, Canon in D, Bach's Prelude in C and more, eight sculpted shapes, 10-minute recordings and WAV export.

Just you and the sound.

Sound With Bones makes sound on your iPhone or iPad. No account, ads or internet connection needed to play. Drawing, playing, recording and sharing are free.
