About the SoftwareRytmik Lite Chiptune Synthesizer is an ultimate tool for chiptunes and oldschool gaming music creation allowing you not only to play with wavetable synthesizer but also to create music clips or whole songs.
Rytmik allows you to share your songs with other users through the Rytmik Cloud and can also serve as a music player for songs uploaded on Rytmik Cloud with it. On top of that, users can exchange their songs and cooperate on their composing.
Once your work is complete, you can save it in WAV format to local storage.
And that’s not all!
Every instrument is a wavetable synthesizer. With the advanced effect module, you have more power to shape sounds with the ADSR envelope, vibrato, portamento, noise shaper, or digital delay. Drawable waveform synth module allows users to draw and modify their own wave and use it as a sample oscillator – with that you can use Rytmik as a sonically unique chiptune synthesizer.
Rytmik Lite with Rytmik Cloud will of course include more features and additions to the popular series to enrich your experience with playing with sounds and creating music on the go.
Key Features
- Share your songs via Rytmik Cloud

- A drawable waveform synth module
- Advanced effects like the ADSR Envelope, Digital Delay, Noise Shaper and more
- Almost every effect parameter can be modulated via the step sequencer

The fact I could come up with two catchy chiptune battle themes within an hour is absolutely awesome. A great way to try the Rytmik Ultimate software. It's got simple placement options as well as a plethora of adjustments to make sounds your own. You can also add in notes via a virtual keyboard (which I have yet attempted to use.. Kept it simple for now.)... So far I would say it is software I look forward to using in future projects.

Updated Review:
I was too harsh in my original review. I messed with the program for more time, and found that it is much more simple to use than I thought. It took me quite a bit of time to understand however, and I'm still trying to figure things out. But, for $5, this is quite a nice little tool.
Original Review (I originally had my review say "not recommended"): Has potential, but it's got a clunky mess of a layout with no description of how to use anything. I can't tell if I'm actually able to make and place my own notes, or if I'm stuck using loops. It's all unclear. This is of course coming from someone who is not used to using intermediate music software like FruityLoops and the sort, so it may just be on me. But, it'd be nice if the program was more user friendly and intuitive, which it just isn't right now. I'm sure it'll get better with time.

If you're looking to make music, but you either don't have the money for big programs like FL Studio or SONAR or something, or you don't really ever get how they could possibly work—
Then this is a GREAT place to start.
You can't do anything in the way or vocals or any mixing that's TOO complex, but, again, it's a great place to start. The software itself is only 7 dollars, and you'd be able to try it for yourself and see if it's your cup of tea, and hey, if you like it, you can spend 11 more dollars on the DLC and have EVERYTHING that this software has to offer; absolutely everything.
The range of sounds and effects are VERY wide; I couldn't even begin to describe how this program works because there's just so much to it—enough to be satisfied with what you can make.
It just take a little bit of practice with quite a bit of patience to use this software every day/night like I do ^.^

(original review)
This program is hard to learn. It is marketed as an easy program, but a confusing sound making section complicates any chance of making anything your own. Nice default loops though...
P.S. Also needs some video tutorials or something to get someone started in sound/music production
(new review)
Everything i sad above is a misunderstanding. (I still haven't used the loop making section though.) This thing is awesome and needs only a basic tutorial for the drag and drop interface (because someone won't understand it, it is way to simple.) This program is worth it if you don't want, dare I say it? royalty free music from random places on the internet (ugh). I would suggest this if you just want to mess around or are getting serious but just can't get that right feel of 8-16 bit.

Are you planning to make music for video games? This is a perfect tool for that. The files naturally come in .wav format, so you'll probably need an audio converter like Audacity, but otherwise this tool is very useful for creating great-sounding video game music. The user interface is easy to use, there's a whole lot of enjoyable instruments to work with, and the program allows you to save the data for 999 songs: you can export as many as you want, but those 999 will be perfectly editable.

Everyone who's ever wanted to make their own chiptune-style music but hasn't needs to get this wile it's on sale for $4, especially if they're experienced in making music. Incredibly easy-to-use interface full of pre-made, fully-editable music clips, make composition easy for novices.
And, if you are an experienced composer, this is a great tool for pumping out gritty, chiptune-style samples to use in your DAW.
Or, if you're developing a game and you want to add your own original music, but aren't a composer (yet), this might be the thing for you.
Highly recommended.
