Describe any synth, effect, sampler, or audio tool you want, and Warp builds it. No separate dev environment, no manual compiling, no external toolchain. It's effectively a plugin that builds other plugins.

The DSP side is powered by Cmajor, and the UI side is built on a custom canvas-based interface engine.

Once a plugin is generated, you can hit play and use it immediately.

If you want to go further, you can edit the code directly, edit the UI visually on the Warp canvas, or export the result as VST3 for Windows/macOS, or AU for macOS.

The UI system is a custom canvas-based editor inspired by Figma. It supports visual editing, components, layout, animation, and control binding. You can build things like spectrum analyzers, spectrograms, animated meters, waveform displays, modulation views, and other audio-reactive interfaces directly in the editor.

It is also Figma-compatible, so you can copy and paste elements between Figma and Warp.

You can share any plugins you create, privately or publicly, directly in Warp.

There is also MCP support, so if you want to work with external tools like Claude Code or Codex you can connect them directly to Warp. You can also edit everything manually inside Warp using the built-in code editor and canvas editor.

Currently the project is in beta and I've been bringing in new users slowly to keep feedback manageable. Learn more at https://warp.audio (https://warp.audio). I add new users every day.



I'll be lurking in the comments if anyone has any questions!

Interesting!
So is this able to create a working version of GRM Reson, complete with the moveable, automatable ball?
(Very specific, I know) :hihi:

The absolute slopification of music production has arrived, built solely so you can skim a greedy percentage off LLM token arbitrage. It's an insulting grift-monetizing a buggy wrapper that does nothing but scrape open source libraries, hallucinate boilerplate code and repackage it into a broken plugin format that absolutely no one needs. Watching this lazy 'API-call' sham pass for "innovation" is genuinely offensive to anyone who actually understands software engineering or respects the craft. :tu:

I get the concern. There’s a ton of low-effort ai wrapper slop out there, and people are right to be skeptical of it.

But that’s not what I’m trying to build. I’m not claiming Warp replaces great hand-built plugins or carefully modeled classics. The use case I care about is smaller and more specific: making boutique tools for workflows that are too niche for normal commercial plugins.

For example, I made myself a cinematic riser builder because I was constantly doing the same annoying chain by hand: paulstretch-style stretching, filtering, distortion, reverb, widening, automating everything, rendering. Now it’s one focused tool I use constantly in my own work.

Same idea with custom samplers, odd midi tools, sound design utilities, meters, and workflow helpers. Not “replace your plugin folder,” but “build the specific tool you wish existed.”

AI being involved doesn’t automatically make something a grift. The value still has to come from taste, usefulness, curation, UX, and whether the result actually works.

You probably could! Give it a shot.

The perfect tool for supply chain attacks!
