Bend time

Automate notes

A single grid as a multi-dimensional musical canvas — for iPad, iPhone, and Mac.

Fugue Machine Rubato dives deeper into the multi-playhead piano roll concept of Fugue Machine Classic by adding time-bending playheads, parameter automation, and much more.

At the heart of the sequencer is a nonlinear time engine that lets playheads move with a natural — or surreal — feel

Unlike conventional sequencers, where time advances at a constant rate, time in this engine can expressively accelerate, decelerate, freeze, and change direction

Playheads are now free to swing, strum, bounce, move elastically, and more.

Built upon the time engine is a robust parameter automation system with time-bending automation playheads and envelopes sculpted with points, curves, and shapes

Nearly everything can be automated — even the notes.

Eight years in the making, Fugue Machine Rubato is rock-solid and absolutely packed with features.
