ABYZOR MIDI AI AI Module · Beta

Genesis works on its own with the built-in engine. When you want AI-assisted generation and refinement, install the separate ABYZOR MIDI AI Module — unlimited local generations on GPU or CPU, no subscription.

  • Free forever — not tied to Variations
  • Runs locally; AI processing stays on your computer
  • Same module powers Genesis today and Variations AI when it ships

AI is optional. You can keep using Genesis without installing the module.

Genesis V2

A major release.
A new creative foundation.

Genesis is no longer just a MIDI generator. V2 is built around the actual creative process — generate, hear, explore, edit, save, recall, drag out — with a refined interface and deeper links to the rest of the ecosystem.

Generate

Musical ideas,
instantly.

Create melodies, basslines, chords, arpeggios and rhythmic ideas with a single action — in key, in your DAW, in seconds.

Generating a musical idea in ABYZOR Genesis
Four ideas

Four directions.
One decision.

Generate four different musical directions at once, compare them visually, and keep the one with the most potential. Choosing is faster than re-rolling.

Four generated idea directions side by side
Locks & morph

Keep what works.
Regenerate the rest.

Lock the rhythm, lock the pitch — or both — and explore variations without losing the core of the idea. Then use Morph To to move the same idea toward another StyleDNA profile.

  • Lock Rhythm · Lock Pitch
  • Morph between style profiles
  • Harmonic generation with genre-based progressions
  • 10 categories, 51 presets in the style library
Lock rhythm and lock pitch controls
History & ancestry

See where your
idea came from.

Save up to 20 patterns, each preserving the musical pattern, seed, settings and preset. The Ancestry Tree tracks how an idea evolved — generate, mutate, edit, import, create variations — so you can always get back to the version that worked.

Seeds

Share an idea
as a link.

Every Genesis idea can be represented by a deterministic seed. Share it as a simple URL — paste it back into Genesis and the idea is recreated exactly as it was generated.

Latest · v2.2.0

New themes.

Fresh interface themes so Genesis matches how you work — dark, focused layouts that keep the piano roll and controls readable during long sessions.

  • THEMES — Dark, Light, and High Contrast
  • AI MODULE tab — optional local AI when the module is installed
  • Your projects and seeds stay compatible

v2.1.0

Call & response blocks.

Split the loop into A (question, tension) and B (answer, resolution) across melody, bass, chords and arpeggio — so a generated pattern has structure instead of just repeating.

  • BLOCKS — A|B split across all four parts
  • REFINE — one-click "make it musical" with undo
  • REGEN BLOCK — regenerate A or B, keep the other
  • Grid generation snapped to 0.25 beat
  • Piano roll shows the A|B split
  • Live preview updates correctly after REGEN

BLOCKS is off by default — existing projects and seeds stay compatible. · Full changelog

You have four bars you like.
Now build the track around them.

ABYZOR Variations $9.99 one-time

Genesis gets the idea onto the piano roll. That's where most generators stop — and where the actual work starts. Variations picks the same phrase up and develops it: variations of the melody, bass, chords and rhythm that still sound like your idea, plus the drums and arrangement underneath it.

  • Drag a Genesis pattern in, get dozens of developments back
  • Grow a 4-bar loop into a 32-bar section that stays coherent
  • Drums, call & response structure and arrangement layers in the same window
  • Drag MIDI or WAV straight into your DAW

Genesis stays free, forever. Variations is the one thing ABYZOR sells — bought once, with every future update included. You never need it to keep using Genesis.

Requirements & installation

Getting it into
your plugin list.

Windows
Windows 10 or 11 · 64-bit VST3 host. Tested with FL Studio, Ableton Live, Reaper and Cubase.
macOS
macOS 10.13 or later · Apple Silicon & Intel · 64-bit VST3 or AU host. Tested with Logic Pro, Ableton Live and Reaper.
Compatibility
Any DAW that supports VST3 or AU plugins on Windows and macOS.
Install on Windows (VST3)
  1. Download and unzip the Windows package.
  2. Copy ABYZOR Genesis.vst3 into your VST3 plugin folder — usually C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3.
  3. Open your DAW and run a plugin rescan (Clear Cache & Rescan).
  4. Find ABYZOR Genesis in your plugin list and load it.

Not showing up? Confirm the .vst3 file is directly inside the VST3 folder (not in a nested subfolder), that the folder is in your DAW's scan paths, then rescan again.

Install on macOS (VST3 & AU)

Important: Genesis is a free, unsigned plugin, so macOS will block it on first launch. This is normal — approve it manually using the steps below.

  1. Download and unzip the macOS package.
  2. Copy the plugins into the correct folders (VST3 and/or Components).
  3. Go to System Settings → Privacy & Security.
  4. Scroll down — you'll see "ABYZOR Genesis was blocked". Click Open Anyway.
  5. Open your DAW and run a plugin rescan.
  6. If prompted again during the scan, click Open Anyway once more — this is expected.
  7. ABYZOR Genesis will now appear in your plugin list.

Tip: you may need to approve the plugin twice — once in Privacy & Security, and once during the DAW rescan. After that it works normally.

Is Genesis really free?
Yes — 100% free. Use it in personal and commercial productions with no royalty or licence fees. No trial period, no account required.
Does it work on macOS?
Yes. Genesis is available for macOS as VST3 and AU, with a Universal binary supporting both Apple Silicon (M1/M2/M3) and Intel. Requires macOS 10.15 Catalina or later.
What's coming next?
Deeper Variations integration — sending ideas from Genesis into full composition workflows — and more ecosystem tools for creators.
