Welcome to Homage

Abstract

Welcome to the Play Series Homage online manual. Read this user guide and learn about the main controls and workflows to get started making music.

 

Homage pays tribute to the adventurous spirit of the LA beat scene with warped melodies and distorted textures, packing Lo-Fi samples spanning saturated synths, guitars, keys, basses, and more. Homage blends into modern productions of any genre and shines when creating Lo-Fi hip hop.

As with all Play Series instruments, Homage aims to balance intuitive, performance-focused control with nuanced sound design. The macros offer quick and dynamic control over the synth engine, enabling you to effortlessly shape presets and customize your own sounds. For those who wish to go deeper in sound design, you will find powerful sound editing tools and custom effects chains that offer further control and inspiration. Homage also contains an analog-style sequencer that can produce chords, arpeggios and melodic, rhythmical patterns. Ultimately, these tools aim to empower you in your own sound creation!

In this user manual, you will learn about the main controls and workflows to get started making music.

We hope you enjoy this instrument!
