Description:	This paper reports a summary account of the Timbre Tools Hackathon: a hackathon that invited audio developers and music technologists to consider and work with timbre through the design of tools that promote a timbre-first approach to digital instrument craft practice—timbre tools. Through ethnographic observation, we identified different approaches towards integrating timbre as an active part of creating tools and technologies in music. These strategies inform future work and the development of tools to assist awareness and exploration of timbre for instrument makers.
