MIDILODY: Your generative MIDI Sequencer & Looper MIDILODY is a generative MIDI sequencer and looper designed to inspire musicians with evolving, musically rich loops. It excels at creating original sequences that evolve over time, perfect for ambient textures, live performances, or sparking new musical ideas. Key Features: - Evolving Sequences: New notes and rests are added at precise timings, allowing them to overlay existing ones. This overdubbing creates dynamic rhythms and chords, making your loops evolve organically. - Real-Time Editing: Remove unwanted notes and rests on-the-fly without interrupting playback, giving you control during live sessions. - Key and Scale Selection: Choose from predefined scales to set the tonal foundation of your loops. - Auto-Pause Functionality: Automatically pause after adding a new note—ideal for live ambient performances where gradual evolution is key. - Infinite loops: let your MIDI sequence evolve for hours and days constantly. Perfect for ambient / sleep patches. - Rests probability: more flexibility for your loop. - Adjustable Sequence Length: Set your sequence length up to 64 notes - Adjustable Loop Duration: Set your loop duration to 1 bar / 4steps , 2 bars/ 8 steps, or 4 bars/ 16 steps to suit your musical needs. - Velocity and Notes Filtering: Apply filters to capture notes with low velocity, perfect for creating subtle ambient textures. - Note-Off Messaging: Send note-off messages to accommodate external gear or plugins. By default, notes adhere to your AUv3 instruments’ settings. - MIDI Notes routing: filter your notes by octave to send them to other instruments - AUv3 state saving Designed by Musicians, for Musicians We’ve invested significant effort into MIDILODY’s layout and user experience. As daily users ourselves, we’ve ensured it’s straightforward and intuitive, allowing you to focus on creativity. Seamless Integration MIDILODY thrives when paired with MIDI routing options from your AUv3 host, enabling the creation of intricate, evolving textures across multiple AUv3 instruments. Experience the Difference MIDILODY isn’t just easy to use — it’s uniquely inspiring. With every session, it sparks new ideas and unexpected musical directions. Whether you’re producing ambient soundscapes or live looping, it just might become your favorite creative companion. IMPORTANT! MIDILODY is and AUv3 plugin. It won't work in standalone mode. It needs an AUv3 host such as AUM, Drambo, Cubasis, etc.

TESTERE is a 7-oscillator supersaw synth where each voice stacks 7 saws with per-voice control over detune, phase, waveshape (flavor), stereo pan, and a sine wave sub oscillator. Instead of micromanaging each oscillator manually, TESTERE uses distribution curves to control these offsets. You dial in a curve shape and a spread amount, and the synth applies the resulting values across all oscillators smoothly interpolated, musically controllable, and repeatable. This system allows for infinite combinations, from tight analog-like stacks to wide, animated swarms, all with a minimal set of parameters. Each oscillator is a wavetable oscillator with a selection of saw waveforms. You can subtly vary the shape across oscillators or push it further for complex harmonic shifts. All detune, phase, flavor, and panning spreads are curve-driven and musically scaled, making the synth flexible but not overwhelming. A clean sine sub oscillator is included for adding low-end weight, with an adjustable octave (set in settings) and a level control (in the FX panel). Features: - 7-saw stacked oscillators per voice, 8-voice polyphony - Curve-based detune, phase, flavor, and pan spread - Clean sine sub oscillator with octave and level controls - Single global LFO with assignable target - Analog-style ladder filter with rise/fall envelope - ADSR amp envelope per voice - Built-in arpeggiator - Stereo ping-pong delay - AUv3 plugin support AUv3 Compatible Hosts: Works as a plugin in GarageBand, Logic Pro for iPad, AUM, Loopy Pro, Cubasis, BeatMaker 3, and other AUv3-compatible hosts. Whether you want to dial in tight classic stacks or explore chaotic layered textures, TESTERE’s curve system gives you deep control without micromanagement.
