FM drum synthesizer and step sequencer. Motto Akemie is a 6-voice FM drum synthesizer and step sequencer for your DAW. Each voice is inspired by our famous “Akemie’s Taiko” eurorack module, with similar controls and playful FM sounds ranging from pure sine oscillations to mega clones and chaotic feedback noise envelopes.
The built-in multi-track step sequencer allows you to quickly create polyrhythmic patterns with step modulation of all parameters, randomization and Pam-style scaling using saveable pattern banks and presets. Voices can also be played chromatically and controlled via MIDI with MTS-ESP micro-tuning support.

Unpack ALM Co. – Motto Akemie v1.1.0.exe and place the Motto Akemie.vst3 folder in the VST3 directory.
Presets are built into the plugin, but some DAWs (like Live) do not display them,
so vstpreset files are included with the plugin. These can be used by copying the files into your DAW’s presets folder.
