Fingerlab is an independent mobile and desktop app studio based in Paris, France, founded in 2010. The team designs touch-first music creation tools for iOS and macOS, with an emphasis on tactile, playful interfaces that work as both standalone apps and AUv3 plug-ins inside larger DAW setups.

The studio is best known for DM1 – The Drum Machine, an iPad drum machine that won an Apple Design Award in 2012 and was followed by DM10, an expanded drum-and-synth machine. Other releases include Musyc and its sequel Musyc 2, which turn physics simulations into music; PolyWave, a sequencing wavetable synthesizer co-developed with Dream Theater keyboardist Jordan Rudess; and Playset, Albert, Mynth, Flynth, SK-51, Mellowsound, iPhilicorda, and the Polagone sequencer.

Alongside its music apps, Fingerlab has shipped games such as Multiponk and Atom Run, and offers custom app development. The studio's catalog leans toward instruments and sequencers that prioritize hands-on experimentation over deep menus, aimed at producers using iPads and iPhones as part of their production workflow.

Fingerlab has 3 products cataloged on Equipboard, including Synth Plugins and Electronic Pads. Their gear is featured by 1 artist, with the strongest followings in Electronic, Rock, and Pop. Notable users include Jonny Greenwood.
