TAQS.IM is a music software developer focused on World Music creative tools, with a particular emphasis on Middle Eastern sounds, scales, and rhythms. Founded by musicians Andrew Kzirian and Aram Hovagimian, the company builds virtual instruments and plugins designed to make microtonal music, maqam scales, and traditional instrumentation accessible to producers working inside modern DAWs.

Their flagship product is SOLO, a hybrid synthesizer that combines virtual analog oscillators with sample-based waveforms, filters, effects, and a built-in microtonal scale converter, shipped in VST3, AU, and AAX formats. The catalog also includes MicroToner for microtonal scale processing, World Piano, Pro Keys, Pro Beats, a Drone Pad iOS app, and expansion packs such as Silk Road, Electro Shaabi, and Oriental EDM. A free Kontakt instrument and the Learn the Oud video series round out the lineup.

Beyond software, TAQS.IM operates as a broader hub for Middle Eastern music culture, running a podcast, a 24/7 radio stream, and instructional content for oud players. The brand's reputation sits at the intersection of ethnic instrument sampling and modern plugin design, catering to film composers, electronic producers, and players exploring Arabic, Armenian, Persian, Turkish, and Balkan traditions.

TAQS.IM has 1 product cataloged on Equipboard, including Synth Plugins.
