A small lab for
making sound
play with you.
We design tools for musicians who treat the studio like a workbench. iOS apps and Push devices, drawn with the line discipline of an engineering blueprint and the warmth of a paper field manual.
What we believe
We make instruments for the kind of musician who keeps a notebook on the desk and isn't afraid to wire something wrong on purpose. If it sounds wrong, it might be right. The tools are precise so the playing can be loose.
SELENITE
iPad · iPhoneA MIDI processor inspired by optics. One note enters. It travels through a graph you build: pitch shifters, chord voicers, scale quantizers, velocity and timing jitters. It emerges as many. An AUv3 plugin that runs inside the host you already use.
Open SeleniteASTERISM
Ableton Push 3A Max for Live MIDI effect that turns the Push 3 pad grid into a chord-generation instrument. Three interactive zones (scale degrees, modifiers, and voicings) build complex chords from simple gestures. Everything stays in key. All output is standard MIDI.
