The creator

About

My name is Henrik, founder of Audivoso and creator of Phraser VST. I’ve been creating electronic music for 14 years and have spent many years studying music theory and playing guitar.

I created Phraser to help producers turn inspiration into musical ideas, whatever their level of music theory knowledge. My goal was to make it easier to explore basslines, chords and melodies that work together, and bring more harmonic possibilities into the composing process.

Phraser is a starting point for your creativity. It helps you generate ideas quickly, then leaves you free to shape, develop and make them your own. Your imagination, taste and musical decisions are what turn those ideas into something personal.

This is only the beginning, by getting continous feedback from the community and adding my own new ideas I intend to continue developing Phraser into a great tool for everyday use. Happy creating and exploring!

Compatibility

System requirements

Everything you need to run PHRASER as a plug-in or standalone MIDI idea generator.

01

Windows

A 64-bit Windows system. Use the standalone application or load the VST3 in a compatible 64-bit DAW.

02

macOS

macOS 11 or later. Universal builds support both Apple Silicon and Intel Macs, with VST3, Audio Unit, and standalone formats.

03

DAW and workflow

For plug-in use, you need a host that supports 64-bit VST3 or Audio Unit. The standalone app works without a DAW; exported MIDI can be dragged into your instruments.

04

Internet and graphics

An internet connection is needed for account activation and license validation. GPU rendering can be disabled in Settings when troubleshooting graphics compatibility.

FAQ

Have a question not covered here? Reach out to our customer service team at contact@audivoso.com.

01

What does Phraser actually generate?

+

It generates bass, chords and melody together as one phrase, so the parts stay harmonically related instead of sounding like separate guesses.

02

Is the 7-day trial the full product?

+

Yes. The trial is the real product with full access, so you can test the workflow before committing to the license.

03

Can I drag the MIDI into my DAW?

+

Yes. The output is designed for drag-and-drop into your favorite instrument or piano roll, so the idea moves straight into production.

04

Why is authentication stuck on loading?

+

This usually happens if Windows doesn't have a default web browser selected. Choose a default browser in your Windows settings to allow the activation window to launch.

05

Which styles are included?

+

Nine styles are included: Pop, Lo-Fi, Cinematic, Rock, Funk, Blues, Classical, Melodic House and Hip-Hop. A style never changes which chords get chosen — it changes how they are played, shaping rhythm, voicing, articulation, timing and velocity across all three layers.

06

Is this AI generated music?

+

No. Phraser is rule-based and built from composition logic, so the output follows musical structure instead of machine-learned prediction.

07

Can I use the generated music and MIDI commercially?

+

Yes. You can edit, export and release music and MIDI created with your licensed copy of PHRASER, including in commercial releases and client work, without paying additional royalties to AUDIVOSO. We do not claim ownership of your original musical contributions or projects.
