Example

Explaining the use of synthesizers like Ableton's Operator or Wavetable for creating custom sounds, demonstrating how to manipulate oscillators, filters, and envelopes to achieve desired tones.

Scenario

A user aims to design unique synth patches for a synthwave track. The assistant provides a walkthrough on crafting lush, wide, retro-style pads by layering saw waves with slight detune, applying reverb, and adjusting the ADSR envelope for a slow attack.
