Pentimento (x TAETRO)

Layer sounds that react to your music — Pentimento by dBdone x TAETRO

Pentimento is a texture layering plugin that overlays sounds triggered by your audio's dynamics. Every kick, snare, or melody movement shapes the layer in real-time — no MIDI, no programming needed.

Co-created with TAETRO, Pentimento launches with 50 hand-curated sounds and full support for uploading your own samples and building custom packs.

How It Works

1. Load Pentimento on any track in your DAW.

2. Select a texture from TAETRO's packs:
• Places (10 sounds) — nature, outdoors, atmospheres
• Textures (30 sounds) — metal, paper, plastic, wood, objects
• Noise (10 sounds) — buzz, electricity, tape noise, fuzz.

3. The texture plays back shaped by your audio's envelope:
• Kick hits texture bursts
• Sustained notes texture sustains
• Quiet passages texture fades.

Your music conducts the layer. No MIDI required.

Creative Controls
