MeeBlip is a Canadian designer of compact, affordable synthesizer hardware and MIDI tools, created through a collaboration between engineer James Grahame of Reflex Audio / blipsonic inc. and Peter Kirn of CDM (Create Digital Music). The line launched in 2010 with an open-source, hackable digital synth aimed at putting hands-on sound design into the hands of beginners and tinkerers, and the company has continued to publish code and schematics for its products.
The brand is best known for a series of small desktop monosynths including the MeeBlip SE, Anode, and Triode, followed by the geode — a hybrid instrument pairing digital oscillators with an analog low-pass filter. Outside of synths, MeeBlip also makes simple MIDI utilities such as the cubit duo USB MIDI interface and thru box and the thru5 MIDI splitter kit. Manufacturing is handled in Foothills, Alberta, with a separate European fulfillment site.
MeeBlip's reputation sits at the intersection of the open-hardware and bedroom-electronic-music communities, where its low price points, immediate playability, and DIY ethos have made the instruments a frequent reference in coverage from outlets like CDM, Sound on Sound, and FACT, as well as in homebrew clones built by hobbyists.
MeeBlip has 6 products cataloged on Equipboard, including Synthesizers, Tabletop Synthesizers, and MIDI Interfaces. Their gear is featured by 6 artists, with the strongest followings in Electronic, Rock, and Orchestra. Notable users include Rodney Orpheus, Octave One, and Anonymous Animal.
