direct · no ticket queueEmail us about anything — a bug, a question about clip generation, controllers, or the model download, or a feature request. Because OhmsGrid runs entirely on your device, please don't attach your audio to the message; we can help without it. For non-private questions you can also open an issue on GitHub.

privacy · grid · controllersNo. Clip generation and analysis run locally on your supported Apple Silicon Mac or iPad; Mac stem separation also stays local. No audio leaves the device, and there is no cloud LLM, account, or telemetry. Model assets download from the pinned Hugging Face revision only after consent.
Columns are instrument categories — drums, bass, lead, melody, pad, fx, vocal, and percussion — and rows are scenes that trigger together, in the spirit of a Launchpad driving Ableton Live's Session View. Fill pads with generated or sampled clips, then launch scenes to play a full arrangement.
Tap an empty pad and OhmsGrid generates a clip on-device with the ACE-Step 1.5 music model, using your project's key, tempo, and the pad's instrument category as context — so the new clip lands in key, at tempo, and at a duration that fits its column. Everything is computed on your own GPU.
OhmsGrid is Launchpad, Push, and APC40 ready — an 8×8 hardware grid maps naturally onto the software grid, so you can trigger clips and scenes from the pads you already own.
Only for the first-run model provisioning. After you consent, the ACE-Step weights download once from public open-weights mirrors and are cached locally; from then on, generation and playback work fully offline.
OhmsGrid is a one-time $19.99 App Store purchase for Mac and iPad. No subscription or generation credits.
