A single horizon at dusk. On the left, ridges fade into a sunset haze and a distant castle shows one lit window. On the right, a city of towers stands in cool mist beneath stars and a vast planet lit along one edge. Between them, a slender doorway glows on the horizon.

Windward Audio

Instruments for places that don’t exist.

Instruments for film, TV and game composers. Each one is a doorway to somewhere else.

A small workshop

We don’t make sounds. We make places.

A castle hall at the end of a long war. A tavern where the fire never quite goes out. A spaceport that hums at 3 a.m. Every Windward instrument starts with a place like that, and everything in it is there to help you score it.

We’re a small, independent maker in Ontario, Canada. Our instruments run on macOS as AU and VST3 plugins, on Apple Silicon and Intel.

Next from Windward

More worlds are on their way.

An empty building at night, a dark realm under a red moon, and its sunlit twin. Each is a world of its own, in the workshop now.

An empty hospital corridor under fluorescent light, rendered for LIMINAL.

LIMINAL

Playable instruments inside empty places.

Twenty fragile instruments inside ten liminal spaces: a hospital corridor at night, a mall after closing, a pool where the water never moves.

Coming 2027

The painted DUNGEON CRAWLER map: a dark realm lit red, with the Dungeon, Castle, Cathedral and other locations.

DUNGEON CRAWLER

A dark realm under a red moon.

Forty places across a painted dark-fantasy map, from the Dungeon’s corridors to the Final Boss Lair. An instrument for every place, and an effect that puts any track there.

Coming 2027

The painted LIGHT SEEKER map: green meadows, a river, crystal spires and floating isles in daylight.

04 · Instrument and effect

LIGHT SEEKER

A sunlit realm of sky castles and crystal palaces.

The bright twin of DUNGEON CRAWLER: 31 places across a painted, sunlit map. Uplifting, shimmering and majestic, as an instrument and as an effect.
