We are Inphonik
We're a small company that releases cool products for musicians.
By cool products, we talk about audio software plug-ins.
By small company, we talk about a two-person team.
Mathieu Demange is a software developer from Paris, France. He teaches music theory in a music school, he also plays percussions in Quatuor Puls’, and keyboards in DETUNE.
His passion for audio and electronics drove him to launch his first software products RYM2612 and RYMCast, by modeling the Yamaha YM2612 sound chip.
William Lamy is a graphic designer who lives in Strasbourg, France. He works in a web-agency and plays drums in local indie-pop bands Joy & Glory and Petseleh.
He’s known in the demoscene under the nickname Willbe, as a composer of hip hop and electronic music since 1997.
We joined forces in 2016
to design, implement and release software instruments and effects in VST, AU, AAX, Rack Extensions formats as well as iOS apps. We started to publish our first software products: RYM2612 Iconic FM Synthesizer, RYMCast Genesis VGM Player and RX950 Classic AD/DA Converter under the brand Mathieu Demange.
Our method relies on a thorough analysis of the inner circuitry of the machines we aim to emulate. Cracking the very mystery of an electronic architecture is a crucial step for recreating the unique characteristics of the original hardware, whether sound qualities or noisy side-effects that makes its full, lively character.
In 2019, after getting so much positive feedback from users and the press for the release of RX950 Classic AD/DA Converter, we decided to create a company name that was better at expressing our ambition towards our users and the audio engineering industry: Inphonik was born. Keeping our authentic approach, we strive for developing new products that are true to the original sound, that are easy to use and that inspire our users to make more music.
RX1200 12-bit Sampler Instrument
Our tribute to the E-mu SP-1200, created by Dave Rossum in 1987, that was so influencial it helped shaping new styles of music.
PCM2612 Retro Decimator Unit
A free effect that adds the iconic saturation/decimation from the Sega Genesis, based on our audio engine developed for the RYM2612.
RYM2612 Iconic FM Synthesizer
More than an emulation of the Yamaha YM2612! We've modeled our first synthesizer as if the sound came from a real Sega Megadrive/Genesis.
RYMCast Genesis VGM Player
RYMCast is our videogame music player for Sega Genesis files. Based on the same engine than our RYM2612, it's a powerful companion app that extracts sound patches via drag & drop. Freeware for Win/Mac/Linux.
RX950 Classic AD/DA Converter
Our first effect plug-in emulates the entire signal path of the Akai S950, praised for its 12-bit crunch. It also features the infamous "house music" low-pass filter.
