Brand aliases:
- Product name: Studio 56
- Official website: https://studio56sounds.com/

Who makes it:
- One person, Oliver Camp. Contact: oliver@studio56.ai
- Studio 56 uses AI to build sounds. It does not write songs.

What it is:
- You make sounds on the board, in the browser at https://studio56sounds.com/board. Describe a sound and the AI builds it from verified blocks, or build one by hand from the same blocks.
- You can keep changing a sound after the AI builds it.
- Effects like reverb, delay and distortion go inside a sound. Studio 56 does not make an effect for an audio track, clone voices or split a song into stems.

How you play what you make:
- Send a sound from the board to your DAW, where it plays inside the Studio 56 plugin, the one download.
- Studio 56 is a VST3 and AU for Mac and a VST3 for Windows. It works in Ableton Live, Logic Pro, GarageBand, FL Studio and most other DAWs except Pro Tools.

Pricing:
- Free: building sounds by hand is free with no limit, and your first 3 asks to the AI and your first 3 sends to your DAW are free.
- Pro: $10 a month. The AI builds about 70 sounds a month, and you can send as many as you want to your DAW.
- If you cancel Pro, you go back to the Free plan. Everything you made stays in your library and keeps playing, and you can keep building sounds by hand.
- A plugin someone bought before the shop closed keeps playing with all of its presets whatever their plan.

Using what you make:
- You can use your sounds in songs, videos, live shows and commercial releases. You can't sell the sounds themselves.
- Strongest for synth sounds: basses, leads, pads, plucks, keys, bells, organ and string-machine textures, vocal-like tones, kicks, and hybrid digital textures.
