01 — Software
Each one does a single job properly. Free desktop trials let you try before you buy — see each product page for its evaluation terms.
Get all hex guitar audio channels into your multichannel audio plug-ins — no matter what DAW you have.
Conventional DAWs may stop at mono or stereo inputs relegating your multichannel audio input plug-ins inaccessible.
Eight delay lines. One instrument. Sonic nirvana.
Conventional delays don't give you the Holdsworth sound as found in the Yamaha UD-Stomp and Magicstomp.
See your MIDI split into channels.
A single scrolling event list can be hard to follow when multiple MIDI channels are active at once.
Bring in a device your DAW project doesn't expect — or allow.
You need one more input but building an aggregate device breaks your session — and your flow.
A real volume pedal, inside the DAW.
Fader automation doesn't always move the way your foot volume does.
Freeze a sound. Keep playing.
You want to freeze a note or chord from your audio and keep playing over it.
Also in development: SY-1000 Control Center and Scale Demon.
02 — Coaching
I’m Luke — a music graduate, guitarist, teacher and music-software developer with more than 30 years of playing behind me. I work with players who want to deepen their musicianship, sharpen their improvisation, or make sophisticated digital guitar technology actually work.
Advanced improvisation, fretboard knowledge, applied harmony, phrasing, jazz and fusion concepts — built around your playing, not a syllabus.
Guitar synthesis, GK pickup systems, MIDI Guitar 3, DAW routing, latency, plug-in configuration, MIDI controllers. Share your screen and we’ll fix it together.
03 — From the lab
Hold Pedal 1.0.0 is available for macOS and Windows. Inspired by the EHX Freeze, it freezes a moment of incoming audio into a continuous layer that you can keep playing over. It works on the audio itself and does not require a MIDI instrument. Shape the frozen layer with separate Effect and Dry levels, Momentary and Latch modes, Attack and Release, and optional MIDI triggering with MIDI Learn.
Start with a free 15-minute video call. Tell me where you are with your playing or what you’re trying to get your rig to do, and we’ll work out whether I can help.
