Glosso and Artikulation Plugins Debut as AU/VST3

Every something has released two new plug-ins, Glosso and Artikulation. They are published as AU and VST3 plug-ins for macOS and Windows, making them available to common desktop DAWs. The rollout also includes a note that two additional tools, perp and otophon, are scheduled to arrive next month, with perp described as a Risset-powered live looper and otophon as a synth. The maker frames these as “experimental, non-normative designs” presented in simple black-and-white interfaces.

Glosso draws inspiration from Rob Hordijk’s rungler and the Benjolin circuit and uses two chaotic rhythmic circuits to drive two voices. Each voice has controls including Head/body and haat/boty tuning frequencies, and a ‘Q’ control that emphasizes phonemes by accentuating the vowel filter. Stagger sets the separation between the voices while the clock control can be synced to a host or run free, and cross-modulation is available through a cross control that blends interaction between the circuits. The design intentionally produces slight differences between the voices on every run, a quality the article likens to glossolalia, which literally means speaking in tongues, and the release notes also reference a related Eurorack module, every division and duration, produced in collaboration with Dr. Nicolas Bougaïeff and Johannes Lohbihler.

Glosso is built around the idea of chaotic vocal circuits and draws direct inspiration from Rob Hordijk’s rungler and the Benjolin circuit. The plugin uses two chaotic rhythmic circuits that drive a pair of voices, producing interlocking, unpredictable behavior. The two voices will always be at least a little different — maybe a lot different, according to the release notes. The design references glossolalia, literally speaking in tongues, as a conceptual touchstone for the interacting vocal elements.

Each voice exposes dedicated tuning controls labeled Head/body and haat/boty to shape the relative frequencies that define their timbral relationship. A Q control emphasizes phonemes by accentuating the vowel filter, enabling vowel-like coloration in the sound. A stagger control determines the separation between voices so their timing can be offset for polyrhythmic results. A cross control provides cross-modulation between the circuits to blend and entangle the voices’ behaviors.

Glosso also offers clock control that can be synced to a host or run free, allowing either tight tempo alignment or autonomous timing behavior. The implementation centers on live, chaotic interactions rather than fixed, deterministic sequencing. The release frames these behaviors as experimental, non-normative designs presented in a simple black-and-white interface. The plugin is available as AU and VST3 for macOS and Windows.

Descriptions of the plug-in’s signal architecture, user controls, modulation options, interface layout, and intended musical applications are absent from the provided material. Technical specifications, preset content, parameter ranges, examples of routing, and host-integration specifics for Artikulation are not included in the article. No manuals, walkthroughs, or audio demonstrations for Artikulation are referenced in the available content, leaving practical usage guidance unavailable. Until further materials are released, details that would explain Artikulation’s design intent and user workflow are not present. The available sources do not provide this information.

Every Something has announced additional tools beyond Glosso and Artikulation, including two forthcoming releases named perp and otophon that are scheduled to arrive next month. Perp is described as a Risset-powered live looper and otophon is described as a synth, identifying their product types and intended roles in a live or studio signal chain. Both are presented as part of the same experimental toolkit that the maker is releasing in simple black-and-white interfaces.

The project also ties into hardware work with a Eurorack module titled every division and duration, which the article identifies as a collaborative product made with Dr. Nicolas Bougaïeff and Johannes Lohbihler. That module is presented alongside the plugin releases as part of a broader set of instruments and designs associated with the maker. The release materials link these items together conceptually with influences from circuit-driven instruments.

Outbound references in the article point toward polytemporal instruments and circuit-inspired designs as inspirations for the software and hardware pieces mentioned. The list of related products therefore comprises two upcoming software tools (perp as a live looper and otophon as a synth) and a collaborative Eurorack hardware module (every division and duration) developed with named collaborators.

Imagine crossing vocal synthesis with a rungler, vocal circuits entangling with one another like they’re “speaking in tongues.”

Glossolalia literally means speaking in tongues.

Conclusion

Every something Glosso and Artikulation plugins were released as AU and VST3 plug-ins for macOS and Windows, with the developer announcing two new plug-ins and indicating two additional tools, perp and otophon, are expected next month. The release materials describe the designs as “experimental, non-normative” and present the interfaces in simple black-and-white. The announcement emphasizes the simultaneous availability of Glosso and Artikulation and the forthcoming addition of other tools in the same series.

Glosso draws inspiration from Rob Hordijk’s rungler and the Benjolin circuit and centers on two chaotic rhythmic circuits that drive two voices. Each voice includes tuning controls labeled Head/body and haat/boty, a Q control that emphasizes phonemes by accentuating a vowel filter, a stagger control to set voice separation, and a cross control for cross-modulation; a clock control can be synced to a host or run free. The article does not provide detailed technical or usage information for Artikulation. Perp is described as a Risset-powered live looper, and otophon is described as a synth, with both due next month.
