ONE IDEA CHANGED EVERYTHING
Controlled Complexity
Hear Midicake in Action
Effortless Composition
Our goal is to empower performers and producers with tools to add complex, repeatable layers to compositions in real-time, and without programming.
We designed a MIDI sequence engine that synchronises with other sequencers and tracks with changes as a performance evolves.

OUR STORY
ARP was born from a musician's quest to break free from computer-based music production and create something more immediate and tactile.
Our founder, a software engineer and lifelong music enthusiast, fell in love with hardware synths and sequencers but quickly discovered their fundamental limitation - not enough hands to layer the complex, intricate sounds he envisioned.
ARP bridges this gap, enabling musicians to add rich, evolving layers while preserving the spontaneous, in-the-moment creativity that makes music-making truly joyful.
Expanding possibilities with the magic of live creation
