Other projects
Emergence
2026
Emergence is an instrument plugin that lets you play field recordings like an instrument. You load any audio file, rain, wind, crowd noise, a room, anything, and it becomes playable via MIDI. Each note you play resonates that frequency out of the source material using high-Q bandpass filters, surfacing the pitched content that was already hidden in the recording. Currently available via inquiry.
Nebula
2026
Nebula is an experimental ambient reverb plugin, designed to do much more than just create space. It features a modular design, with pitch, smear, and the reverb. It has a filter where you can choose how each frequency band in the reverb tail decays, the ability to tune the reverb tail so it rings in key, and many more features that make it unique and incredibly useful for sound design. Currently available via inquiry.
