Quickly build complex sequences with four independently modulated layers and real-time step controls shaped by aftertouch



From sketch to score in seconds
Circular begins with a single note, but it never stays there. It moves, shifts, and evolves into a living, cinematic sequence. With four fully independent layers, each step becomes a canvas — modulating pitch, filter, and effects in real time. What starts as a simple sketch quickly transforms into a motion-rich score, giving you the speed to compose fast and the depth to create something truly your own.

The sounds of Circular
From soft music boxes and felted keys to bowed ceramics, brushed guitars, and reversed bells, Circular’s palette is rooted in contrast — soft and harsh, acoustic and synthetic, familiar and strange. Explore prepared pianos, intimate object recordings, airy saxophones, tuned metals, processed vocals, and hybrid synths — all shaped to move and unfold across time.
