Gavinski’s Tutorials

The purpose of this video is to help you become familiar very quickly with the basic purpose of each Igor Vasiliev plugin. Each is briefly demoed and explained in a nutshell. These plugins, mostly aimed at experimental musicians, are all available for iOS and I think all of them also run on M1 Macs, standalone and as AUv3. In this video, I don’t look at Igor’s older apps which are not AUv3, like Fieldscaper or Soundscaper. That’s not to say they’re not interesting, many regard them as classics, but I rarely use IAA apps these days, and decided for this video to focus just on the AUv3 ones. There was already a lot to cover!

Black Friday




These applications form a unified collection of experimental audio tools designed for exploring sound beyond traditional boundaries. Each one offers a different approach - whether through recording, glitch sequencing, feedback loops, granular synthesis, or noise generation - yet all share a focus on transformation, unpredictability, and creative discovery.

Together they provide musicians, sound designers, and multimedia artists with versatile ways to craft drones, textures, rhythmic abstractions, and immersive atmospheres. They are especially suited for ambient, experimental, cinematic, and live performance contexts, where evolving soundscapes and unconventional timbres can become central elements.

In essence, this suite is not about reproducing familiar music but about opening doors to new sonic worlds - tools for those who seek inspiration in noise, rhythm, and the unexpected.

A Story of ExoSphere

When I began working on ExoSphere, my intention was simple: I wanted a tool that could generate the foundation (or even complete tracks) of long‑form ambient and meditative compositions. I imagined something that could create soundscapes which breathe and evolve, without demanding constant intervention, yet still offering depth for those who wish to shape every detail.

At first, I thought about speed and simplicity. I wanted users to be able to sketch ideas quickly, perhaps with a single press of the randomizer, and hear a draft atmosphere emerge. But I also knew that some would want more: advanced controls to refine each layer, to make the sound truly unique. Balancing these two needs - effortless beginnings and deep customization - became the guiding principle of the design.


One of the core ideas was to divide the generators by their purpose. Each layer: Core, Flow, Grain, Shard, Glow - was given its own role in the sonic architecture. This separation made the system easier to understand and gave better results when parameters were randomized. Another idea was to keep parameters specific to each generator. By limiting controls to what mattered most for each layer, I reduced unnecessary complexity while preserving creative freedom.

Working with ExoSphere is not about following a strict technique. It is about listening, experimenting, and adjusting by ear. The basic process is straightforward - choose a sample, set its tone, presence, density and spatial depth. From there, you refine by adding modulation, letting parameters shift and evolve over time. This is how a simple sketch transforms into a living composition, one that never repeats itself exactly, always unfolding in new ways.

The result is an application with a deep, immersive sound. In headphones, ExoSphere reveals a rich low-frequency foundation and enveloping textures that draw the listener inward. On good speakers, it fills the room with atmosphere, equally suited for meditation, creative work, or quiet reflection. The modulators and sequencer are tied to a shared rhythm, so even a minimal external beat can blend seamlessly into the evolving soundscape.

ExoSphere is a universal app for iOS and Mac and will soon be available in the App Store.
