Ambiotica vs Coastline

Ambiotica turns any sound into a slowly evolving ambient spacescape. Feed it a chord, a field recording, a guitar, or your voice, and it spins that input into a living drone: a rolling looper, a granular cloud, micro-loops, and a modulated, chord-tuned reverb, all pulled together by one macro called Gravity. THE SIGNAL CHAIN Your sound splits into two parallel paths. One is a Looper feeding a Granular cloud; the other is a parallel Micro-loop. Both merge into a modulated Reverb, and the reverb tail regenerates back into the source, so the texture keeps re-graining and evolving on its own. THE CONTROLS Orbit: a tempo-synced rolling looper. Sets the loop length and feeds it back on itself, so layers stack into an evolving bed. Constellate: clouds the sound into grains. Turn it up and the grains grow and spread in pitch, from a sparse sparkle to a thick pad scattering into octaves and fifths. Satellite: a second, faster loop. Down for a long, rolling loop; turn it up and it tightens into a tiny fragment that freezes and sustains into a drone. Tail: the reverb's decay, from a small room to an endless wash. Flux: sets the reverb tail in motion (shimmer and a stereo drift) and feeds it back into the chain, driving the self-evolving regeneration. Spectra: a bank of resonators tuned to your chord. Rings the reverb tail into a harmonic shimmer (set Key and Chord). Dilation: reverse. Flips the loops and grains so they play backward. Gravity: the master pull. Raises feedback, decay, granular density, freeze and motion all at once, collapsing the whole chain into a single sustained drone. Event Horizon: the counter-force. Pulls feedback, decay, the chord ring and the regeneration down together, emptying the chain toward silence. Mix and Level: dry/wet blend and output trim. Tap any stage's constellation to bypass it and build the exact chain you want. Sixteen factory presets give you starting points, from gentle shimmer to a full frozen drone. A NIGHT-SKY INSTRUMENT The interface is a living constellation. Each stage is a glyph that breathes and moves with the sound, and Gravity collapses the whole field into a glowing well. A reduce-motion option stills the animation whenever you want. FORMATS Ambiotica is an AUv3 plug-in for iPhone and iPad. Load it in AUM, GarageBand, Drambo, Loopy, and other AUv3 hosts, plus a standalone app. Built for ambient, drone, film scoring, sound design, and live texture.

Atmosphere machine. Texture generator. Harmonic workstation. A dual-engine audio sustainer with intermodulation, advanced filtering, support for custom samples, and more – all in the service of adding depth and character to your music. Coastline uses a combination of additive and granular synthesis to stretch sounds infinitely. It creates complementary ambience for any sound or composition. It brings a textural “je ne sais quoi” that makes your tracks stand out and feel more alive. Move as quickly as you want: slap it on a track for instant atmosphere, or use it as the recording and processing hub of entire compositions. All recordings happen immediately and automatically – set one volume threshold, and sit back. ENGINES AND EFFECTS • Tide – an additive synthesizer for reimagining sound. Control which frequencies of the input are mapped to oscillators, rebalance them to highlight harmonic or inharmonic characteristics, and introduce new frequencies with waveshaping. • Glade – a granular synthesizer that stretches sound forever with no clicks or transients. Balance the original timbre of your sound against Tide’s distillation of it. • Audio Matrix – route any channel in Coastline to intermodulate another. Create unique harmonic distortions, or load samples to introduce a completely new texture. Includes built-in field samples for naturalistic textures. • Filter – a multi-mode filter for all audio in Coastline, featuring feedback modulation, stereo spread, and independent per-channel controls. • Reverb – a downsampling reverb with a highly configurable chorus section for blending the results of Coastline and introducing another layer of texture and modulation. FEATURES • Modulation – modify any control in Coastline with multiple LFOs, sequencers, smooth random sources, and performance effects. • Presets – full preset control over every parameter in Coastline. Cross-platform preset format for sharing with friends. • Waymaker – connect to Coastline’s sibling application, Waymaker, for sequencing and additional control over the pitch of Coastline’s output. Includes 20+ presets by Peter Bark and imago meri. Also available for macOS and Windows in VST3 / AU / AAX formats from Aqeel Aadam Sound.
