instruments for the curious
We create software and hardware instruments for musicians, makers, and explorers.
Tools that reward curiosity. Instruments worth getting lost in.
MIDI sequencers, generative tools, and signal processors. Standalone applications and plugins built for live performance, studio sessions, and everything in between.
Built for the stage and the studio. Deep modulation, expressive controls.
Physical devices merging embedded electronics with musical intuition. Designed to be touched, patched, and pushed. Built to last.
The weight of a knob matters. Nothing is arbitrary.
Built on open standards — MIDI, USB, CV. Our instruments integrate into any setup, from modular rigs to DAW-based studios.
Works with everything. Plays well with others.
good tools get out of the way. great ones surprise you.
— the noise~toys philosophy
From clock accuracy measured in microseconds to the tactile feel of every control. Nothing is arbitrary — and nothing is more frustrating than a tool that fights you at the wrong moment.
Our instruments reveal new behavior the more you use them. The surface is immediately playable. The edges are designed to be discovered over months.
We build instruments that invite experimentation without penalty. Some of the best music starts somewhere unexpected.
A 16-voice Turing Machine MIDI sequencer that generates evolving melodic sequences. Dial from pure creative chaos to perfectly frozen loops — and everything in between.

An image-driven reverb plugin. Load any image and let its luminance, edges, color temperature, or texture shape the parameters of an 8-channel feedback delay network — four analysis modes, continuous blending.
