Audio plugins for macOS · AU + VST3

Your mix, illuminated.

Five studio plugins — compressor, reverb, delay, saturator, EQ — whose displays show you exactly what is happening to your sound, while it happens.

The suite

Five plugins. One system.

The same obsidian, the same grid, the same champagne-collared knob — and exactly one data accent each.

Truthful

Every moving pixel is real

Each display draws live telemetry from the plugin’s own DSP. There are no decorative spectra and no idle animation pretending to be signal. When nothing is playing you see a calibrated display at rest — never a synthetic waveform.

If it moves, it is your audio.

Progressive depth

Eight controls. Then the drawer.

Five macro knobs with feel-first labels, a Mix knob, and an audition rail — that is the whole default surface. When you want attack curves, crossovers, or circuit bias, the expert drawer slides out with the full parameter set.

Hidden, never removed: everything stays automatable.

Feel first

Labeled the way you listen

Macros speak the language of the ear — Soft ↔ Firm, Clean ↔ Ember, Matte ↔ Sheen — while the exact value sits in a chip beneath each knob, in numerals that never jitter. Double-click and type, units understood.

Private

No cloud. No accounts. No telemetry.

The plugins never touch the network — no license servers, no analytics, no phoning home. This site keeps the same promise: no trackers, no cookies, no external requests. Everything you are reading is served from where you are reading it. The whole policy fits on one small page.

One material system

Obsidian and gold

Flattened obsidian panels. A single champagne-collared ceramic knob. Exactly one data accent per plugin — signal cyan, depth violet, cold teal, ember orange, champagne — and gold reserved for the brand itself.

The same tokens, the same grid, the same light: five plugins that read as one line.
