it would be cool if you add analog synth and substractive synth because you can make cool pads and basses and keys with analog synths and cool pads and keys and basses with substractive synth

Hello! To be honest, I'm not sure what you mean. Subtractive synthesis refers to taking a complex wave (such as a sawtooth) and applying filters to it, such as BeepBox's EQ and Note Filters. You can already do that: https://www.beepbox.co/#9n10s0k0l00e00t2ma7g00j00r1i0o3T0v1u00f0q8z10pb222d2aw5h0E2bbbbbwp17FL5-1Hw

As for analog synths, technically any sound that a computer or phone or video game system synthesizes is digital, not analog. However, again it's probably possible to make something that sounds similar to any analog synth using BeepBox or some other digital tool.
