Open AudioFlow and Learn the Layout
The main workspace combines a node graph, a library sidebar, top navigation, and a lower performance area.

Open AudioFlow to land in the editor. The left sidebar is the node library, the center canvas is the patching area, and the lower workspace switches between piano/group mode and the sequencer.

Build Your First Patch
A simple starting patch is Oscillator -> Gain -> Output, with optional envelope and visualization.

Drag an Oscillator node into the graph, add a Gain node to control level, then connect Oscillator output to Gain input and Gain output to the Output node input. This gives you a minimal playable synth voice.

Play Your First Patch
Once your first patch is wired, you can audition it live from the computer keyboard, the inline piano, an external MIDI controller, or sequenced playback.

After starting audio and selecting the playable node path, AudioFlow lets you trigger the patch immediately without leaving the editor. This is the fastest way to confirm that your Oscillator -> Gain -> Output chain is behaving as expected.

Open the Sequencer and Switch from the Virtual Keyboard
The lower workspace can switch between the virtual keyboard view and the sequencer so you can move from live preview to arrangement mode.

The bottom area of AudioFlow is shared between performance-oriented controls and the sequencer. When you are testing a patch, the inline piano or group view keeps the interface lightweight. When you are ready to record, edit timing, or build an arrangement, switch that same area into sequencer mode.

Save, Export, Import, and Recall Workflows
AudioFlow can save, export, import, and reopen named workflows.

AudioFlow keeps your current patch available while you work and can save named workflows for signed-in users. Export and import let you move patches between sessions, machines, or collaborators.

Report Bugs and Request Features in Context
Support buttons on nodes, the sequencer, and workflow management open a thread with admins while preserving the original context.

AudioFlow support requests are attached to the area where you open them. Select a node and use the message button in its action bar, switch to the sequencer and use the Sequencer support button, or open Workflows and use Workflow support.
