// Manifesto

How we work

We're an independent studio. This is what we believe and how we ship.

// 01

One thing at a time

We ship one product every six to nine months. No filler, ever. Each tool gets the attention it deserves before we move on.

// 02

Design out of love

We don't build to undercut competitors. We build the thing we wish existed when we sat down to write a song last Tuesday.

// 03

Buy once, own forever

No subscriptions. No iLok. A one-time licence and a signed file that works on your machine when the internet is down.

// 04

Reply within a day

Every support email is answered by a real person within 24 hours. Usually it's the founder. There is no support tier.

// 05

Open about what we know

We publish the engineering blog, the dev streams, the failed prototypes. If you want to learn this craft, our work-in-progress is your seminar.

// 06

The internet is optional

Plugins activate offline. Presets are local files. Your music doesn't depend on our servers being awake.
