ARGISH

It scores. You listen.

Self-Playing Drone Synth

Click a few chords on the wheel. Press play. ARGISH scores. Voice-leading its pads, weaving an arpeggio, laying bass and pulse underneath, all re-shaping to your mood. Leave it running and it writes epic, cinematic soundscapes that never repeat: a film score composing itself, in real time, while you just listen.

Most synths wait for you to play them.
ARGISH plays itself, you just steer the mood.

01 / 06

Inside the machine

A complete generative ambient rig behind one dark, tactile face. Everything moves together, locked to your project tempo.

The Wheel

A circle-of-fifths chord wheel

Three rings: major, minor, diminished. Click chords to build a progression; the in-key ones light up. Click out-of-key to modulate to a new key on purpose.

Self-Play · Wander

It performs your progression

Hit play and the machine voice-leads your chords smoothly. Turn on Wander and it improvises endlessly, always in key, never quite repeating.

The Mood Pad

One gesture shapes everything

Dark ↔ bright, calm ↔ energised. Drag the pad and ARGISH opens the filter, leans major or minor, and re-writes the music to match the feeling.

Granular Engine

11 effects, endless texture

Mosaic, Haze, Tunnel, Warp and more, each with four variations, freeze, four reverbs and ten knobs. Turn any moment into a shifting cloud.

Low End · Pulse

Acid bass, kick & drone

A resonant bass synth on its own step sequencer, an ambient kick, and a tonic drone pedal underneath it all: a full ambient rig, not just pads.

Play It Your Way

Keyboard, wheel, or hands-off

Drive it from a MIDI keyboard, click the wheel, or let it self-play. Tempo-syncs to your DAW, and can send its chords out as MIDI on Mac.
