phrz in 43 seconds

made with phrz

phrz takes up to 24 samples, chops them at random and places the chops at random to make a phrase. it keeps them in key.

press new phrase and it cuts and places them again: same sounds, a different phrase, as many times as you like.

finding samples and arranging chops by hand is slow. phrz can load public-domain (cc0) sounds at random, then does the chopping and arranging for you.

sometimes an image or a video gives a sound a world. that is why visuals are part of phrz.

how it works

  1. 01

    drop in some sounds, then press play.

    drop in your sounds and press play to hear a phrase. they don't have to be in the same key.

  2. 02

    not that phrase?

    press new phrase and hear another possibility from the same sounds.

  3. 03

    add a picture or a video.

    an image is material too. phrz cuts it up just like your sounds.

export the phrase as wav, or sound and visual together as mp4 in sizes for reels, tiktok, youtube shorts, x and square posts. save a .phrz project and come back to it.

questions

does it write music for me?
no. phrz rearranges and processes the material you give it. what comes out is a phrase or a piece of material to take further, not a finished track.
is it random?
yes. chance picks the fragments, the timing and the structure. with pro, you can lock the layers you like and randomize the rest.
do i need my own sounds?
no. phrz opens with starter sounds already loaded. use those, replace them, or add your own. you can also switch the draw from toggle to cc0, and phrz loads random public-domain sounds.
do i need to install anything?
no. phrz runs in the browser. core needs no account. pro is tied to an account, so buying it means signing in.
can i use it in my DAW?
yes. phrz plugin runs inside your DAW (VST3 and AU, Mac and Windows). phrz web is the one that runs in the browser.
can i make something for social media?
yes. add an image or video and export the sound and visual together as mp4. phrz includes size presets for reels, tiktok, youtube shorts, x and square posts.
what can i take out of phrz?
wav, mp4 and a local .phrz project in core. pro also adds stems, so every audible layer can leave as its own audio file.
