FAQ

Questions people actually ask.

What DAW does MACE run in? +
Any DAW that supports VST3 (Ableton Live, FL Studio, Bitwig, Reaper, Studio One, Cubase, etc.) or AU (Logic Pro).
What hardware do I need? +
Windows 10+ or macOS 15+, 16GB RAM minimum (32–64GB recommended), and a reasonably modern GPU. NVIDIA, AMD, Intel iGPU, and Apple Silicon all accelerate via DirectML or CoreML. CPU fallback works but is slow.
Do I need an internet connection? +
No. MACE generates everything locally on your GPU. No cloud, no account, no latency. You need internet once to activate your license.
What models come included? +
A curated library of general-purpose audio models ships in the box, including kicks, textures, pads, leads, and ambient material. More models are added over time and delivered through updates.
Can I use MACE commercially? +
Yes. One-time purchase includes a commercial-use license for audio generated with MACE. The plugin itself is non-transferable; sounds made with it are yours.
What is your refund policy? +
Purchases are non-refundable once the license is activated. If you're unsure MACE will run on your setup, check the hardware requirements above or reach out via the contact page before buying.
Is this the same thing as ANVIL? +
No. ANVIL (currently being rebuilt as ANVIL 2) is for training custom audio models. MACE is the plugin that uses those models. You can use MACE on its own without ANVIL.
How often does MACE get updated? +
Tensorpunk is a one-person operation, so updates ship when they ship — but they ship. See the /dev-log for current status.
