Conduct time.

A commercial macOS instrument for hybrid, film, and game composers. You conduct a MIDI cue live with a mouse or trackpad, Air plays it into your DAW, and the performance comes out as a tempo map.

Air, 2026

The idea for Air began in 2014 with Air Conductor, an Android app that turned a phone into a conductor's baton, reading beats from its accelerometer to set the tempo of a MIDI orchestra. After years as an after-work project, it became Air.
