Artists in DSP has announced the release of a beta version of Amorph, describing it as “the first audio plugin that turns plain English (or any language) text into working audio effects and instruments2.
Artists in DSP is releasing Amorph for free with the goal of democratizing audio programming. The team believes that AI should not replace musicians, but rather amplify their creative potential. Instead of requiring users to purchase hundreds of different plugins to chase a specific sound, Amorph removes the barrier between the idea in a musician’s head and the signal in their DAW. Users simply describe the effect, and the plugin builds it for them.
No Coding Required (Unless You Want To)
The most important feature of Amorph is freedom. You do not need to know how to code to use it:
- For Musicians: Just type what you hear in your head (e.g., “A vintage tape delay with random pitch wobble”). The AI does all the heavy lifting, writing the DSP code for you instantly.
- For Sound Designers: You can let the AI generate the base structure, then tweak the code manually to make it as you wish.
- For Developers: You have full access to the Cmajor engine to write instruments from scratch.
How It Works
Amorph is a “Text-to-DSP” engine powered by the Cmajor language:
- Prompt: You type a description in plain English.
- Generate: The AI writes the DSP code in real-time.
- Play: The code compiles instantly inside Amorph, creating a fully functional processor or synth.
Availability
This is a stable beta release. Amorph has been tested extensively lately to ensure it creates high-quality, usable audio code:
- OS: macOS (10.13+) / Windows 10/11 (64-bit).
- Formats: VST3 / AU / CLAP.
- Host: Compatible with Ableton Live, Logic Pro, FL Studio, Reaper, Bitwig, and most major DAWs.
