Microphonic Soundbox Cosmos

LeafAudio's line of Sound Design instruments perfectly integrates in any audio setup to create interesting and otherworldly soundscapes.

A TACTILE INSTRUMENT FOR SONIC DISCOVERY

The Microphonic Soundbox cosmos is a growing universe of instruments and creative add-ons designed specifically for experimental sound design and sonic exploration. Whether you're composing music, designing soundscapes for film or theater, crafting installations, or engaging in meditative sonic explorations, these unique tools offer a hands-on and unconventional approach to sound creation.

At the heart of this cosmos lies the Microphonic Soundbox, a tactile, acoustic instrument that produces complex and otherworldly tones. The instrument is equipped with high-quality contact microphones, enabling you to capture vibrations directly from its surface. This method of body sound transmission offers a more immediate and detailed audio experience than traditional airborne microphones. Every scrape, tap, stroke, or resonance becomes a rich layer of sound. Amplified with almost scientific precision, it's a new way of listening that invites deep focus and inspires new forms of expression.

This tactile approach opens up unexplored sonic dimensions. The Soundbox isn't just an instrument; it's a platform for experimentation, used by renowned artists such as Robert Rich, Bugge Wesseltoft, Robert Dudzic, and Kevin Martin (The Bug). Thousands of musicians, composers, and sound designers worldwide have integrated the Soundbox into their workflows, drawn by its purity and versatility.

EVER-EXPANDING UNIVERSE OF BODYSOUND INSTRUMENTS AND TOOLS

While the Soundbox produces mesmerizing acoustic textures on its own, its full creative power is revealed when it's processed in real time. We highly recommend running it through loopers, effects pedals, or plugin chains to build layered compositions, modulate textures or evolving soundscapes.

To take your explorations even further, we offer a range of add-ons. Accessories like springs, bows, rubber bands and the Microphonic Playground expand the instrument’s physical and sonic capabilities, letting you construct your own “bodysound” stage. These additions transform the Soundbox into a modular performance environment that continues to evolve with your creativity.

With the Microphonic Soundbox, every surface becomes a stage, every gesture a story. Dive into a world where sound is discovered, not just played.
