In their own words
Wave Alchemy
Wave Alchemy makes virtual instruments, effects plugins, drum samples, music loops, and sound effects for macOS and Windows. Its Triaz drum-production plugin combines sequencing, layering, mixing, and sound design, with 15,000 samples and more than 700 presets. The sequencer supports polyrhythms and per-step pitch, chance, repeats, and note offset; its Motion Sequencer modulates parameters. Users can import and organize personal samples, then export audio stems, full mixes, one-shots, and MIDI to a DAW. Triaz costs 79.00 GBP once and comes with a 14-day fully functional demo that has fewer samples and presets. The free Triaz Player includes 4,000 samples and 200 presets, but does not allow sequencer editing, Sound Browser use, or personal sample loading. Magic7 is a free reverb plugin with 11 reverb types and 234 presets. Listed plugins use AU, VST3, or AAX formats and offer native Apple silicon compatibility. First authorization requires an internet connection; after successful serial entry, the plugins can be used offline. Instruments and effects can be activated on up to five computers, with one running at a time.
