The projects
Each card opens a fuller page — what it is, how it works, and where it stands.
Life-OS · Web app
Waves
A sacred personal life-OS. Your day is structured around ritual and the Chakana — the Andean cross of five domains held in balance. Completing work grows a living Plant and Character; the canvas itself drifts from amber dawn to indigo night.
Open project →Ableton Live extension
Waves for Ableton
Capture ideas, tasks, and reusable "seeds" without leaving Live — a right-click on any track. It snapshots metadata versions of your Set as you work and syncs everything back to the Waves web app, so the studio and the day stay in step.

Story Map
Plan a set, album, collab, or remix as a narrative. Lay out chapters with their emotion, tempo, and nature-element; track recurring motifs and the energy arc from first note to peak. A living plan that grows beside the music.
Open project →Desktop · Performance mixer
Dub Console
A dub-inspired performance surface for Ableton Live, driven live over OSC. Ride echo and spring-reverb throws, kill feedback, and play the mixer like an instrument — the tactile dub board that Live never shipped with.
Open project →Commons · Proof of authorship
Serviceberry
A gift-economy network for creators. Upload a work, sign it, and receive a tamper-proof certificate of authorship — hashed, watermarked, and witnessed by a community-run chain of Raspberry Pis and LoRaWAN gateways. No fees, no wallets, no extraction.
Open project →About this workshop
Deep Mountain Sound is Santi's home for music and the tools around it. The threads run together: three of these projects live inside Ableton Live, one organises the life that surrounds the music, and one protects the work once it leaves the studio. Built part-time, in the open, from Nelson, BC.
“Move with what matters.”
