PX7 Audio WaveGrid

Write music without opening a DAW.

A modern tracker for your Mac. Compose at the speed of the keyboard, shape every sound and stay in the flow.

Apple checks every release before it reaches you. Less than 5 MB to download.

€25 one-time · one app-specific key for up to 7 Macs · no account or subscription.

Tracker speed. Mac clarity.

Write without reaching for the mouse

Enter notes and effects from the keyboard, edit individual fields, select ranges, transpose, interpolate and build grooves. The pattern stays the instrument.

Samples and synthesis belong together

Drop in your own samples, record a sound, or create one with subtractive and FM synthesis. Projects can embed their samples, so the song travels as one file.

Turn patterns into a finished track

Arrange in Song mode, queue patterns live, add swing and use tracker effects from arpeggio and retrigger to vibrato, slide, chords and chance.

A mixer when you need one

Shape each track with inserts, then finish through filter, drive, bitcrusher, delay, reverb and limiter. Export the mix as WAV or render stems for the next stage.

Plays well with the rest of your setup

Record from CoreMIDI, import and export MIDI, capture microphone or line input, and work with Audio Units without turning WaveGrid into a conventional DAW.

Your music stays yours

WaveGrid saves automatically, recovers your work if something goes wrong and keeps every project on your Mac. No account, no upload, no lost flow.

What is a music tracker?
A tracker writes music in a vertical grid instead of on a horizontal timeline. Each column is a channel, each row is a step in time, and notes are typed from the keyboard rather than drawn with a mouse — which is why trackers stay popular for fast, pattern-based composing.
Is there a native music tracker for Mac?
Most trackers are cross-platform ports, so they carry an unfamiliar interface and their own window behaviour. PX7 Audio WaveGrid is written for macOS: it uses native audio, native file handling, and standard Mac shortcuts.
Can I make tracker music on an Apple silicon Mac?
Yes. WaveGrid runs natively on Apple silicon and supports samples, a subtractive synth, an FM synth and Audio Units, exporting a WAV mix, stems or MIDI.
Is WaveGrid an alternative to Renoise?
They serve different needs. Renoise is a far more comprehensive tracker with deeper routing, effects and a large plugin ecosystem, and it remains the stronger choice for complex productions. WaveGrid is focused and native: patterns, instruments and export, without a project setup to work through first. If you want depth, choose Renoise; if you want to start writing immediately on a Mac, WaveGrid is the shorter path.
