Friendly PC/Mac support that keeps your tech working.
Built for producers who collect sounds.
Hey everyone! I've completed work on my first published app now available for purchase. I built the SteckLogic Media Downloader as producers, beatmakers, DJs, and editors need a cleaner way to collect royalty free approved sounds, loops, one-shots, and reference media without losing the title, artwork, description, or metadata.
For macOS + Windows. Early Access: $10.
I hope you find it as useful as I do.
Thank you. Circuit Tracks x2 Pack Manager
Circuit Tracks x2 Pack Manager is a MusicRIG-included patch transfer workspace for two Novation Circuit Tracks units. It gives musicians a clear way to see which pack is loaded on CT 1 and CT 2, inspect synth patch slots, import Circuit Tracks SysEx pack files, and drag patches from one device pack to the other without losing track of source metadata.
The design is built around side-by-side hardware confidence: each Circuit Tracks has its own 64-slot pack grid, category counts, loaded pack name, import drop zone, and connection state. A central transfer rail makes the copy-only behavior obvious, while the patch inspector shows the selected slot, source pack, SysEx size, signature, category, and quick actions for rename, copy, and export.
Key capabilities shown:
Dual-device workspace for CT 1 and CT 2
Loaded pack visibility for each Circuit Tracks unit
64-slot synth patch grids with category color coding
Drag-and-drop patch transfer from one pack to another
SysEx pack and patch import workflow
Patch inspector with source, signature, and export metadata
Transfer queue for reviewing cross-device patch copies
MusicRIG integration for managing multiple connected hardware devices
Role: product design, UI direction, hardware workflow design, and frontend prototype. PRO VS Mini Studio
PRO VS Mini Studio is a MusicRIG-included patch librarian and performance editor for the Behringer PRO VS Mini. It gives musicians a focused interface for browsing program banks, importing SysEx and JSON patch collections, selecting presets, shaping vector oscillator blends, and sending MIDI program/control changes to the hardware.
The design brings the PRO VS Mini into the larger MusicRIG workflow while preserving the immediacy of a standalone synth editor. A searchable bank browser, color-coded program grid, vector XY pad, oscillator meters, filter/LFO controls, envelope shaping, patch export, and test-note actions are organized for fast sound design and live hardware validation.
Key capabilities shown:
PROVS-MINI MIDI bridge connection and device status
SysEx, MIDI, binary, and JSON bank import
Searchable, color-coded program bank and preset categories
Vector XY pad for oscillator blend control
Cutoff, resonance, LFO rate, and amp envelope editing
Patch export, save, audition, and test-note actions
MusicRIG workflow integration for hardware-aware preset management
Role: product design, UI direction, hardware workflow design, and frontend prototype. Launchpad Loop Studio
Launchpad Loop Studio is both a standalone performance app and a MusicRIG-integrated module for loading audio loops, assigning them to a Novation Launchpad Pro MK3, and animating the full hardware grid in real time. It turns the Launchpad into a visual loop launcher: clips can be loaded, mapped, triggered, stopped, and paired with LED animation states from one focused interface.
The design is built for fast studio use whether launched on its own or used inside the larger MusicRIG workflow. A loop browser keeps source material close at hand, the 8 x 8 session grid mirrors the physical Launchpad layout, and the animation panel gives performers direct control over brightness, tempo, flash depth, and playback-driven LED modes.
Key capabilities shown:
Audio loop import and browser-based clip selection
8 x 8 Launchpad Pro MK3 session grid
Pad assignment, clip playback, and stop-all controls
Hardware LED animation modes including pulse, chase, rainbow, and clips
MIDI target connection status for LPProMK3 MIDI
Animation timeline for scene-based visual movement
MusicRig session sync and hardware preview feedback
Role: product design, UI direction, hardware workflow design, and frontend prototype.
