Ambiotica

Ambiotica turns any sound into a slowly evolving ambient spacescape.

Feed it a chord, a field recording, a guitar, or your voice, and it spins that input into a living drone: a rolling looper, a granular cloud, micro-loops, and a modulated, chord-tuned reverb, all pulled together by one macro called Gravity.

THE SIGNAL CHAIN
Your sound splits into two parallel paths. A tempo-synced Rolling Looper feeding a Granular cloud; the other is a parallel Micro-loop. Both merge into a modulated Reverb with tuned, chorded resonators, with the reverb tail regenerating back into the source, keeping the texture re-graining and evolving on its own.

THE CONTROLS
Orbit: loop layering, how much of the rolling loop feeds back and stacks
Constellate: granular density and grain size, from sparse sparkle to a full cloud
Satellite: micro-loop length, tiny stutters and frozen fragments
Tail: reverb decay, from a small room to an endless wash
Flux: reverb motion and drift, driving the self-feeding regeneration
Spectra: harmonic shimmer, ringing the tail into a tuned chord (Key and Chord)
Dilation: reverse the loops, micro-loops, and grains
Gravity: expand the whole chain toward a single sustained drone
Event Horizon: drain the whole signal path toward silence

Tap any stage's constellation to bypass it and build the exact chain you want.

A NIGHT-SKY INSTRUMENT
The interface is a living constellation. Each stage is a glyph that breathes and moves with the sound, and Gravity collapses the whole field into a glowing well.

FORMATS
Ambiotica is an AUv3 plug-in for iPhone and iPad. Load it in AUM, GarageBand, Drambo, Loopy, and other AUv3 hosts, plus a standalone app.

Built for ambient, drone, film scoring, sound design, and live texture.
