What if your pitchwheel never hit a wrong note again? What if a simple chord could evolve into an entire melody? What if your rhythm section could swing, shuffle, and surprise—without hours of programming?
That’s not a wishlist—it’s exactly the kind of creative freedom Pitch Innovations is chasing. With a growing suite of plugins built on fun and unique concepts – they’re offering producers something more than just another synth or effect.
If you’ve ever wished your tools felt as intuitive and fluid as your ideas, this just might be what you’ve been waiting for.
Whether you’re hunting for smarter arpeggios, humanized grooves, expressive pitch control, or the wild frontier of chord-bending, this suite offers a little something for the sound designer, performer, and beatmaker alike. Let’s break it all down.
Eternal Arps: The Arpeggiator Reimagined
Forget robotic arpeggios. Eternal Arps is all about turning a static chord into something that feels alive. Inspired by instruments like the harp, santoor, and marimba, this MIDI FX and virtual instrument hybrid doesn’t just sequence notes—it plays them like a real musician would.
You get three modes of input (Trigger, Sequence, Live), each changing how the plugin reacts to your playing. Want complete control? Trigger mode’s your friend. Prefer letting it run on autopilot? Sequence mode handles playback on a loop.
But the real magic is in its groove engine: five editable rhythmic patterns per preset, randomized with a click of the “Magic Dice.” Scatter and Variation parameters tweak the timing and spacing of notes for more organic playback, while scale quantization ensures you always stay in key—even with exotic or custom scales.
Built-in instruments add a nice layer of realism. The harp and marimba samples are particularly expressive, and when paired with MIDI drag-and-drop, you can build intricate melodies fast. Eternal Arps doesn’t just play back notes—it brings them to life with surprising emotional depth.
Groove Shaper: Geometry Meets Rhythm
At first glance, Groove Shaper looks like a toy. But don’t be fooled—beneath its colorful shapes lies a ridiculously powerful groove engine.
This plugin is a shape-based rhythmic sequencer. You drag geometric icons (triangle, pentagon, etc.) onto a grid, and each shape generates a unique rhythm subdivision. Want a triplet hi-hat on beat one and quintuplets on beat four? Easy. Each step can hold a different rhythmic identity, complete with its own velocity, swing, and gate settings.
What makes Groove Shaper shine is its flexibility. It’s not just a beat generator—it’s a performance tool. You can load your own synths or drums, adjust global swing and dynamics, and instantly audition variations using the Magic Dice. It’s particularly useful for breaking out of the 16-step trap that plagues a lot of beatmaking.
Want off-kilter glitch grooves? You got it. Need flam-style snares or Latin shaker loops? Also covered. And because everything’s MIDI-based, you can capture your groove and edit it later in your DAW.
It’s one of those plugins that’s fun to use but sneaky powerful once you understand how deep it goes. Perfect for beatmakers, composers, and anyone looking to infuse their rhythm sections with a bit more spice.
Rhythm Box: Musical Typing, Upgraded
Rhythm Box takes the humble laptop keyboard and turns it into a groove machine. Think of it like a beat pad for your number keys—each key (1–8) triggers a full drum pattern. Tap one, and boom—you’ve got a killer trap loop. Tap another, and you’ve flipped to a tight acoustic groove.
It’s all about instant gratification here. Rhythm Box comes loaded with factory kits and patterns, and you can swap between them on the fly. Each key becomes a rhythm performance trigger, making it super easy to jam out beat ideas without programming a single note.
The built-in kits are great for quick sketches—realistic samples, some round-robin variation, and enough variety across genres to keep things interesting. Plus, you can load your own VSTs and control them instead if you want more advanced sound design.
It’s a fun, fast sketchpad for laying down grooves, especially on the go. Bonus points for the Magic Dice feature, which can randomize patterns with a surprising degree of musicality.
Fluid Pitch: Intelligent Bending for Expressive Players
Let’s talk about pitch wheels. They’re great in theory, but in practice, it’s easy to go off-key or overshoot your target. Fluid Pitch fixes that. It’s a MIDI plugin that adds intelligence to pitch bends by snapping them to a selected musical scale.
You pick your key and scale, and Fluid Pitch ensures that any bend you make lands on a note that belongs. Slide your wheel from C to E, and it’ll skip right past that nasty sharp note you didn’t mean to hit. It’s clean, it’s smart, and for live players, it’s a total game-changer.
But that’s just the beginning. The plugin also brings MPE-style bending to standard keyboards. You can trigger polyphonic pitch bends—so each note in a chord can slide independently. No fancy hardware required.
Microtuning adds another layer for those chasing experimental or culturally specific sounds. You can fine-tune each note in the scale by cents, creating custom tunings or just getting that sweet analog drift.
The result? A plugin that makes pitch bending feel intuitive and expressive rather than terrifying. Whether you’re a synth soloist or film composer, Fluid Pitch opens the door to emotional, scale-locked pitch play with zero wrong notes.
Fluid Chords: Bend Between Harmonies
Fluid Chords takes everything we just said about pitch bending… and applies it to chords. It’s a chord-morphing plugin that lets you bend from one chord to another in real time, using the pitch wheel. That means you can literally play a C minor chord and glide up to a G major—all in one fluid motion.
This is way more than just pitch-shifting. Fluid Chords intelligently interpolates between the notes of two chords, creating harmonic transitions that would be time-consuming to program by hand. Want to bend a single note into a whole chord? Done. Want to turn an A minor triad into a lush 7th or 9th chord? Just slide the wheel.
Because it supports MPE, this plugin can perform mind-bending transformations—especially when paired with pads, strings, or any rich sustained sounds. Add in custom chord triggering, real-time bend modes, and global transposition, and you’ve got a playground for producers looking to experiment with harmony.
It’s one of those plugins that sounds weird on paper but makes perfect sense when you try it. Once you do, you’ll probably wonder why nobody thought of this sooner.
