There is a challenge in designing a system for timbre design that is engaging for new users and enables experienced users to intuitively design a diverse range of complex timbres. This paper discusses some of the issues involved in achieving these aims and proposes that a timbre can be intuitively represented as an image. The design of TimbrePainter, a system that uses images painted with a mouse to specify the parameters of a harmonic additive synthesizer, is described.
