Music that composes itself.

A multisampling instrument with a generative engine that writes and plays its own music from templates you design.

GAGE is made by Style Audio, LLC.

GAGE Sampler playing a template: the generative engine's parts light up keys across the keyboard
GAGE Sampler

A sampler and a composer in one.

Load instruments, choose a key and scale, and press one button. GAGE plays its own parts, following rules you set.

  • Multisampling engine. Zones mapped by key and velocity, with ADSR, filter and per-part effects.
  • Generative Engine. Parts pick their own notes from Scale, Next Note, Harmony and Rhythm rules, with chord mode, runs and Look Ahead.
  • Rules tab. Edit a part’s Scale, Next Note, Harmony and Rhythm tables, starting from preset tables or presets you have saved.
  • More chord types. sus2, sus4, 6th, add9, 9th, power, stacked 4ths and 5ths, 11th and 13th.
  • Arrangement. Decide when each part enters, how long it plays and how long it rests. Solo or mute any part.
  • Arrangement Grid. See and edit when every part comes in, plays and rests on one timeline.
  • Key/Scale Arrangement. A road map of key and scale changes, with Loop, End and repeat-a-section choices.
  • MIDI-import parts. Play back a fixed part alongside generative ones, looping where the file’s own End of Track marker says.
  • Drum part. A step-sequenced grid, with Euclidean rhythms, ratchets, swing and per-drum volume.
  • Automation. Lanes for Cutoff, Resonance, Volume and Pan.
  • Templates. Save a whole “song” and reload it, with Reverb, Delay and Chorus. Name each part, tag a template by mood and browse by mood.
  • Loudness. Set a template’s gain by hand, or let GAGE measure it and set the gain for −21 LUFS.
  • OSC control. Drive GAGE from a game engine, with an OSC Mapping window that shows every address.
  • Skins. Change how GAGE looks; make and share your own.
  • Undo and redo, a built-in metronome and performance recording.

Standalone app, AAX, AU, CLAP and VST3 on macOS (Apple silicon and Intel); standalone app, CLAP and VST3 on Windows.

Listen

Five templates, playing themselves.

Each clip is GAGE Sampler playing one template on its own for a little over a minute, recorded straight out of GAGE. We only matched their volumes and added gentle fades. Play a template again and it plays differently.
