What Makes MACE Unique?

  • Generative Sampling
    Instead of merely playing back existing recordings, MACE harnesses AI models to craft brand-new sounds in real time.
  • Flexible 16-Cell Design
    Load and regenerate samples across 16 independent cells. Swap, layer, and experiment to find the perfect sound.
  • Instrument Mode & X/Y Morph Pad
    Turn the first four cells into a melodic instrument, complete with an X/Y morph pad for real-time tonal shifts and evolving textures. Engage looping of samples to turn MACE into an interesting wave scanning synth!
  • Sonic Character
    The sampling engine in MACE aims for gritty, punchy, and interesting characteristics. Great for genres like breakcore, industrial, techno, jungle and hip hop.
  • Time stretcher
    Uses a unique sounding algorithm and has 4 modes that     can lead to strange percussion, gritty evolving pads, and all sorts of resampled madness.
  • Model Browser & Expanding Library
    Browse curated AI models or import your own ANVIL trained models. Each model offers unique sonic palettes, with interesting character from the sonic artifacts of machine learning.

    • Streamlined Workflow
      Drag generated samples straight from MACE into your DAW. Instantly capture your new sounds without disrupting creative flow. Drop effortlessly into another sampler, or even your favorite wavetable synth!
    • Advanced Sampler Tools
      New looping modes (Forward, Backward, Ping-Pong), time-stretching, multiple interpolation options, and a built-in ADSR envelope let you sculpt sounds to fit your music.
    • Smart Hotkeys 
      Quickly control all parameters, shuffle, or auto-play regenerated samples with convenient key commands.
    • Much More!
      Cell Generations feature that is an advanced undo system. It keeps track of up to 64 generations of each cell for you to go back and drag back into any cell
      Midi Mappable Regeneration:  Each regenerate button can be midi mapped and automated by your DAW (cell, row, all)
      Generate by cell, row, or ALL at once
      Customizable color for the UI
      Lock samples from becoming regenerated in rows
      Multi-out support of 16 channels
    Whether you’re an experimental sound designer, a producer craving fresh percussion, or an artist looking for unexpected melodic samples, MACE provides a playground of generative possibilities. If you enjoy pushing boundaries and discovering unprecedented sonic textures, MACE is your new secret weapon.
