Fifteen ways
to follow an idea

Recording, editing, performing and sharing. Sound, stories and moving pictures, connected by your studio’s library, with contacts and private reviews alongside them.

Find your studioExamples & guides for every tool

One studio library. Fifteen ways to create.

THREE WAYS TO START

See where an idea can go

Each example uses the same studio library. Save or export your result, then choose it in the next tool.

01 / THE TOOLS

Catch the idea

A first take. A careful edit. A character finding their voice.

An intimate recording room with a microphone, keyboard and warm desk light

MIDI

Draw melodies, chords and bass lines in a piano roll. Shape timing and velocity, then export MIDI or bring a rendered phrase into Composer.

Draw the notes, find the feel and save a phrase you can build on.

Songwriter

Turn a spark into lyrics or an album concept. Explore stories, song structures, rhymes, line rhythm and unexpected musical directions.

Find your angle, shape the verses and make the chorus count.

Recording

Record instruments and voices, or practise with illustrated vocal lessons, pitch and ear training. Keep the takes, shape the mix and bring it into your library.

Record a take. Audition it with your other tracks.

Editor

Work on one audio file at a time. Trim, cut and repair recordings, apply effects and inspect the sound before saving a new audio file.

Open a sound, select the part you want and shape the audio.

Composer

Arrange recordings, loops and stems on a multitrack timeline. Build sections, balance the mix and merge them into a finished track.

Add your sounds, arrange them to the beat and export your mix.

Foley

Record your own effects, bring in found sounds and generate new ones with AI. Shape them into a sound collection or layer them into a finished effect.

Capture a sound, keep its source and credits, then trim, layer and export.

VoxBox

Write a scene, build your cast and give each line a recorded or imported voice.

Write dialogue, assign takes and find the rhythm between the lines.
02 / THE TOOLS

Find your moment

The next track, the right loop, the cue that changes the room.

Soundscapes

Blend continuous loops with weighted random sounds. Create a haunted room, a role-playing world or an atmosphere that changes as it plays.

Lay a sound bed, add chance events and let the scene unfold.

DJ

Cue two tracks, adjust their speed and blend them with an independent deck mixer.

Load the decks, set your cue points and work the crossfader.

Live

Launch loops and backing tracks. Record a new loop and build your performance around it.

Load your clips, set the tempo and launch your next layer.

Theater

Build a running order of sound cues, fades and pauses. Keep the next moment under your hand.

Arrange the cue list, rehearse the transitions and press GO.
03 / THE TOOLS

Make it someone's

Sounds to play with. A gift to keep. An album with a story.

A cassette, vinyl record, handmade booklet and headphones on a wooden table

Visualizer

Cut clips to the beat. Build lyric videos, moving graphics and stories with your music at the centre.

Choose your track, build the timeline and render your film.

Soundboards

Turn your sounds into something anyone can play.

Arrange your pads, find the feel and try it out.

Mixtapes

Make a personal listening gift, one track at a time.

Choose the tracks. Add a message only you could write.

Albums

Bring tracks, pictures and words together in a digital booklet.

Pair each track with lyrics, photographs and its story.
VISUALIZER / MUSIC IN MOTION

Give the song
its own world

Build a lyric film, a beat-cut photo story or a retro visual performance. Arrange images, video, text and 2D or 3D clips on a timeline that follows your music.

Open Visualizer
  • Cut to the musicWaveforms, beat markers, snapping and editable clip timing help you find the rhythm.
  • Words, worlds & charactersTime your lyrics, layer motion graphics, or bring stick figures and paper puppets into the picture.
  • Keep a style, make a filmReuse studio templates and characters. Render video in your browser and save the result to your library, where supported.

Optional AI and media connections use your own provider accounts. Paid generation shows a price for approval before it runs.

THE PEOPLE BEHIND THE SOUND

Keep your people close
Let the work grow

The vocalist from last week. The friend who hears every detail. Your regular listening panel. Give them a place in your studio, too.

01 / CONTACTS

A name you remember
A credit you won’t forget

Keep contact details, social links, roles and notes together. Tag people and build dynamic lists that update as tags, age or other criteria change.

Dynamic listsCredit pickerStudio messages

Add a public name and role to your credits in a few clicks. Preview email recipients before sending, and invite contacts to opt into your beta panel.

Get to know Contacts
02 / REVIEWS & FEEDBACK

Before everyone hears it
Hear what they think

Start a review from a saved production. Invite individual contacts or a dynamic list, with a private link for each listener and a deadline you choose.

Timestamped notesRatingsRevocable links

Listeners can play and respond without an account. Keep track of feedback in its own review workspace while you continue working on the next revision.

Step into the listening room
MCP & AGENT SUPPORT

Bring your assistant
into the studio

Connect a compatible AI assistant through MCP — the Model Context Protocol — so it can work with your studio’s sounds and projects. Use your own agent, with the access you choose.

See how agent connections work
01 / FIND

Find the right sound

Ask your assistant to explore the library, read project setups and check where a sound is used before you replace it.

02 / EDIT

Shape a draft together

With editing enabled, an agent can create private projects, arrange their content, build visualizer clips, save reusable styles and characters, upload files and update credits or licence information.

03 / PLAY

Give the next cue

Enable agent control in an open DJ, Soundboards or Theater console to trigger pads, control decks and crossfades, or advance a theater cue.

ONE LIBRARY, MANY POSSIBILITIES

Your sounds can move with you

Keep audio, images and video in your studio library. Use the same sounds across projects, export a finished mix, and bring it into a mixtape, an album, a visual film or your next performance.
