If you make music…
…then our story is shared. The instruments we work on change the game: from early analog emulations by Arturia, like the Prophet V, CS-80 and Jupiter-8, to Output’s Arcade, to the era-defining SubLab XL.
We launched our first synth in 2008. That’s Gavin, one of the founders, giving an early demo at a trade show in Germany. Since then, our instruments have been used by producers including Pi’erre Bourne, Dahi, Arca, Hudson Mohawke, The Weeknd…
How you make something is where the magic lies for us. We’ll be highlighting the super-creative composers, sound designers and illustrators we work with, so stay tuned.
