One person, a few plugins

I make electronic music, and I build the tools I wished existed while making it. stms is where those tools live.

CHORAL started because every vocoder I tried made me do the boring part first. Route a synth in, match the levels, fight the sidechain, and only then find out whether the idea was any good. I wanted to play a chord and hear the voice sing it, immediately, the way you audition anything else, by playing it. So the synth is inside, the MIDI drives it, and the setup is gone.

The company is one person. That is not a story about being scrappy; it is the reason the plugins are few and the reason each one is finished before the next begins. I would rather ship one instrument I use every day than five I tolerate.

If CHORAL ends up on one of your records, that is the whole point of it. Tell me what you made.
