Audio Modeling PolySWAM (Pre-Order)

Currently in Beta until official release

Strike A Chord

A new approach to expressive polyphony, designed to bring the expressiveness and performance realism of SWAM instruments into polyphonic orchestral sketching and live performance.


What is PolySWAM?

From the very beginning, SWAM has deliberately remained monophonic.

Not because polyphony wasn't desirable, but because realism and expressive control have always come first.

Rather than changing SWAM, we created an entirely new instrument designed to find the right balance between the expressiveness and performance realism of SWAM instruments and the possibilities offered by polyphony.

Developed together with Emanuele Ruffinengo, Latin GRAMMY Award-winning producer, arranger, and music technology expert, PolySWAM introduces a new approach to expressive polyphony.


Creative Flow Amplified: Sketching & Orchestral Composition

Forget laying down your initial ideas with generic pianos or flat synth pads.

PolySWAM gives you an immediate, deeply inspiring, and highly expressive acoustic arsenal right at your fingertips.

Access everything from intimate chamber ensembles to massive symphonic layers, punchy brass sections, funk big bands, and the majestic, cinematic combinations demanded by modern composers.


Live Performance Redefined: Expressive Ensembles on Stage

SWAM Solo instruments revolutionized the stage for solo violin, saxophone, and woodwind performances. Now, that same breathtaking realism, response, and quality are extended to full ensembles.

Bring the power of dynamic, living acoustic groups to your live rig.

Perform complex arrangements in real-time with an organic responsiveness never before possible on stage.


A New Instrument Paradigm: Pure Plug & Play

PolySWAM is not a traditional sampler, it doesn’t trigger static recordings.

It calculates physical behavior in real-time and dynamically assigns voices to individual virtual players.

This is not a heavy workstation that requires hours of layout setup.

It is pure Plug & Play. Select a preset, play, and instantly feel the different acoustic articulations.

They are already there, built into the instrument - no need to search through thousands of samples.


Dynamic Legato & Polyphonic Gestures

Powered by the SWAM engine and driven by proprietary voice-allocation algorithms, PolySWAM naturally reacts to your touch, seamlessly playing legato, staccato, and even generating smooth, realistic portamentos.

By understanding how you shift between notes and chords, the system shapes the transitions dynamically.

With just a little practice, you can achieve surprisingly realistic and fluid musical phrases.

The Basics

iLok is a copy protection method used by many of our brands.

It has 3 types of activations, iLok USB, iLok Machine, and iLok Cloud.

Different brands/products will offer different iLok methods. iLok USB is always an option, but the availability of iLok Cloud and iLok Machine methods is at the discretion of the software developer.


iLok Account

For all iLok protected products, you will need an iLok account. You can create one for free here: ilok.com/#!registration


iLok License Manager

To manage your iLok licenses, there is a dedicated app called iLok License Manager. This app is used to register, activate, and move your licenses between locations.

You can download the latest installers from the iLok website: ilok.com/#!home


iLok USB Key

iLok USB

This activation is stored on an iLok 2 or 3 USB key.

It is the best option for portability, if you frequently move between multiple machines, and offline use.


iLok Machine ID

Machine ID

This activation is stored locally on your computer.

While this is a convenient way to work offline, and does not require the additional cost of an iLok USB, there is the risk of a license being lost in the case of a drive failure.

This option also requires extra care when you upgrade to a new computer, the license(s) must be deactivated on your old machine first to ensure you do not lose them.


iLok Cloud

iLok Cloud

This activation is based online, and requires a "cloud session" using the iLok License Manager.

It requires an active internet connection for the entire time you use the plugin(s).

Crossgrade Proof

This crossgrade is for owners of a competing DAW. To prove your DAW ownership, we require that you upload proof in the form of an image/PDF.


Types of proof

A copy of your purchase receipt for the original license or the most recent update/upgrade

A screenshot of your product registration

A photo of your package (either CD/DVD or printed manual), with the unique serial number included in the photo.
