Sample Rate (22kHz): A 22,050 Hz sampling rate is half the standard CD quality (44.1kHz). It provides a lo-fi, "crunchy" sound that fits the 8-bit and 16-bit aesthetic.

Because the sampling rate caps at 11kHz of usable frequency, the high-end harshness of digital square waves is rolled off. Modern chiptune can be piercingly bright, hurting the ears with sharp harmonics. Organya's 22kHz ceiling acts as a natural low-pass filter. The result is a "blanket" of sound—rounded, soft, and analog-like.
