Plogue Art et Technologie, Inc. is an incorporated company based in Montreal, Quebec, Canada that develops music software including Bidule, chipsounds, Alter/Ego and chipspeech.[1][2]

The name Plogue was chosen as it means "plug" in Quebec Anglicism/slang.[3]

The company also has interesting old chips and many of its software releases focus on recreating the older synthesizer chips from the pre-90s. Much of David Viens' work within the company involves Rom Dumping, he collects old voice synthesizers and their ROMs.[4] Hubert Lamontagne was hired by the company due to his knowledge of Phonetics and this lead to the creation of Chipspeech and Alter/Ego.[5]
