A writing tool that happens to make sound
Basslines that write themselves. Pick a groove, hit new line, then take the MIDI and play it with whatever bass you already own. The synth is there so you can hear what you are getting. That is not the point.
Now two plug-ins, one price. REHEAT the instrument, and the new REHEAT MIDI DRIVER that plays your own synths with REHEAT's line, live, with no dragging. Already own REHEAT? It is a free update.
Instant download. 30 day money back. The music you make is yours.
$49. One-time, yours forever, with free updates.

Every line can be dragged straight out onto a track. That is the whole idea. REHEAT decides the notes, your own bass makes the sound.
Acid, hip hop, house, tech house, trance, techno, drum & bass, dub, disco and electro. Each one brings its own tempo, length and relationship with the kick.
The generator moves through a real progression: root on the change, chord tones on the beats, passing notes between, and a chromatic lean into the turnaround.
One bar is composed as a cell and then played against each chord, so the line repeats and becomes a hook instead of wandering.
REHEAT MIDI DRIVER is the same engine as a MIDI effect, no sound of its own. Put it in front of any synth you own and it plays your sound with REHEAT's line, live. NUDGE shifts the pattern into place; FOLLOW MIDI locks it to your kick.
Feed the plugin your drum bus and it follows the beat, correcting its phase without ever restarting the pattern. The MIDI DRIVER does the same from an incoming kick, with FOLLOW MIDI.
It is a writing tool, so it is not stuck in 4/4, it follows the host's meter or takes one you choose.
The browser demo runs the same generator as the plugin and lets you download the MIDI. It asks for an email after ninety seconds, then plays on.
One email when a new Tunary instrument lands. No newsletter, no schedule, just the release.
