Modelled character effects
Tone, motion, and behavior inspired by classic and unusual signal paths, translated into focused plugins with stable workflows and fewer distractions.
Unusable Engineering
Over-engineered DSP solutions with simple interfaces
We build plugins the hard way so they feel easy in real sessions. Some rework classic signal paths with deeper modelling. Others explore new scientific metaphors and control ideas. Different approach, same goal: expressive tools with clear controls and strong musical sweet spots.

Lineup logic
Two directions, one working philosophy
The catalog moves between modelled character effects and stranger simulation-driven tools, but the goal stays the same: over-engineered internals, direct interfaces, and musical results you can reach without dead ends.
Simulation-driven tools
Thermodynamics, fluid behavior, membranes, neural impulses, and other odd ideas turned into playable instruments and effects.
SynthAU/VST3Mac/Win
Curves & Membranes
A one-oscillator mono synth built around Bézier wave shaping, orbital motion, and a membrane-style filter model.
Neural VocoderAU/VST3Mac/Win
Synaptic Resonance
A neural vocoder-style effect where input signal excites a 2D simulation that drives a 40-band resonant filter bank.
GranularAU/VST3Mac/Win
Grain Discharge
A cavitation-driven granular effect where fluid simulation events spawn grains from recent input audio history.
DistortionAU/VST3Mac/Win
Cavitation Fractures
A fluid-dynamics distortion that creates transient fracture, unstable texture, and controlled collapse.
DynamicsAU/VST3Mac/Win
Spectral Pressure Chamber
A thermodynamic multiband compressor where spectral pressure drives dynamics and color.
FilterbankAU/VST3Mac/Win
Frequency Guillotine
A 16-band spectral slicer for vocoder-style shaping, stereo motion, and rhythmic chaos.
ModulationAU/VST3Mac/Win
Ensemble Diffuser
Dual-circuit modulation with stringer-style ensemble motion and hot vintage-inspired phasing.
FilterAU/VST3Mac/Win
Harmonic Dissector
Dual parallel resonant filters for stereo carving, modulation motion, and harmonic edge.
ReverbAU/VST3Mac/Win
Tension Reactor
A physically modelled spring reverb with reactive tank behavior, metallic depth, and unstable tails.
DegradationAU/VST3Mac/Win
Entropy Encoder
A creative codec-decay effect for swish, birdies, smear, frame jitter, and intentional digital loss.
BundleModelled character tools
Emulated Effects Pack
Five circuit-inspired effects for modulation, filtering, spring space, and controlled digital decay.
