Zeta-Hybrid Tech is where recovered ideas become working systems. Classified builds, anti-gravity thinking, unexplained results — engineered on Earth, inspired elsewhere.
By day I build websites and systems for clients. At night I build the software I can't buy: a studio, a practice room, a transcriber and an agent that never sleeps. Below is each one, how it works and what it's made of.
Every project here is built to be used daily, and judged against the one thing it's for.
Instruments, effects and utilities in a patchable virtual rack.
Each one analysed bar by bar, with key changes marked.
Vocals, drums, bass, guitar, piano and the rest, pulled from one recording.
Studio software on a real-time audio engine.
Tools that read music and teach it back.
An agent that works while I sleep.
Every build starts with something I wanted and couldn't buy. I write the one sentence it has to do, and nothing goes in that doesn't serve it.
REQUIREMENT LOCKED
Rust where timing matters, Python where it's quicker to be right. Real audio and real standards, with no mock-ups to hide behind.
ENGINE RUNNING
I measure the output against human work and make the tool say how far to trust itself. Then I use it every day until it breaks.
LIVE IN USE
Nothing here was designed to be sold. That freedom is why each one is so specific about what it's for.
Each project earns a place on my own desktop, or it goes back on the bench.
The same code that plays a first chord today gets measured against better data tomorrow.
Every project is a bay. Pengo, Jazz Lab, Audio to Score and Hermes follow, each with its screens, its stack and what it does.
Pengo is a rack-based mini-DAW. Virtual hardware you patch together with cables, a sequencer with a piano roll, and a console mixer. Every line of code, every faceplate and every sound in it is original.
Jazz Lab opens a standard, reads the harmony bar by bar, draws the chord-scale on the fretboard and plays a rhythm section that follows the form. I built it to get as good at this repertoire as I am at development.
Take a recording, find the guitar solo in it and get a draft tab to open in TuxGuitar. Or pull the band apart and mix it so you can hear a line clearly enough to learn it by ear.
Hermes is an open-source agent. What I built is everything around it: the sealed server it lives on, the jobs it runs while I sleep, and the approval gate that stops it publishing anything without a human yes.
If I don't open it on a normal day, it isn't finished. Everything here earned a place on my own desktop.
A tool that guesses should say so. Audio to Score reports how far to trust its own tab.
The apps run on my own hardware and bind to it. The agent sits behind a private network with nothing public.
Anything that leaves the building waits for a person to say yes.
Zeta-Hybrid Tech is the experimental side of one developer, building the software he wishes already existed.
