Apple acquires Swiss Samplab
Summary
Apple acquired certain assets and software rights from Swiss audio software company Samplab GmbH. Samplab built AI-powered tools that turned polyphonic audio into editable MIDI notes and simplified music production workflows. The deal appears to have included hiring some Samplab employees and moving the product’s website toward Apple. The software stopped operating later, and the company changed its name and corporate purpose around the same period.
