## Wave Collider (audio effect)

A VST3 and AU audio effect for Windows and macOS that blends two audio signals through 25 modes (vocoders, ring modulation, spectral splice, probabilistic gating, scrub, math operations, granular clouds, and more), driven by a 16-step modulator. Also available as AUv3 for iPad through the App Store.

## Little Arp Monster (MIDI arpeggiator)

A MIDI arpeggiator that goes beyond the usual: build patterns from chords, single notes, and rests on a 16-step grid, evolve them across scenes and an Arranger, shape every step with a modulation lane, and turn up the Spice dial for ideas a traditional arp would never land on. It is a MIDI effect that drives any synth you own. Available as VST3 and AU for macOS, VST3 for Windows, and AUv3 for iPad.

## Little Drum Machine (drum machine)

A free drum machine for desktop and iPad: a step grid with per-step velocity, musical Randomize and Mutate, scenes chained in an Arranger, per-lane polyrhythms and polymeters, a built-in mixer, and MIDI out. Start with 32 included samples across eight drum categories, or load your own, then tune, trim, and shape each one on the Sample tab. An FX section adds a tempo-synced delay, a reverb with seven rooms, per-lane drive and a glue compressor. Available as VST3 and AU for macOS, VST3 for Windows, and AUv3 for iPad.

## Little Duck (tempo-synced ducker)

A free tempo-synced ducker, a "fake sidechain" volume shaper with no sidechain input to route: pick a rate and it locks to the host's tempo, with Depth, Attack, Release, and Shape dials and a live curve display. Available as VST3 and AU for macOS, VST3 for Windows, and AUv3 for iPad.
