Syntho is now part of Maru
Make the synth
you wish
existed.
A new era of audio creation means more of your ideas can become something you can play. At Maru, we make instruments and build tools that help you create your own, with AI to help you write code, try changes and spend more time listening.
Visit MaruYour ears make the final call.
Try a sound before you build one
What would you
make differently?
Start by playing. Find a tone you like, push it somewhere strange, then notice what you wish you could change. That is a useful starting point for an instrument of your own.
AI should serve your creativity
You bring the idea.
Keep the decisions.
The exciting part of AI is having time to try the second version. Ask for a darker tone, a slower attack or fewer controls. Listen, change your mind, try again. The sound worth keeping is still your decision. We build for that kind of collaboration.
Describe the instrument you want.
Give an agent a musical brief, then refine the sound and controls. See how Studio works and request early access.
Build on the parts that already work.
Use the audio framework’s processing, controls and reusable modules so you can focus on what makes your instrument different.
Learn from what others are making.
Browse community projects for ideas you can discuss, learn from or develop in another direction.
Follow the experiments.
See the lab’s work on generative sound, musical agents and new ways to interact with instruments.
