We all know and love the sound that saturation adds to audio, but have you ever wanted to take COMPLETE creative control over exactly WHAT is added? Well, now you can!

Whether you're adding low-end punch and warmth to a kick or bass, high-end width and sparkle to a vocal or guitar, or enhancement and richness to the whole mix. Darkfire makes ANY sound more exciting.

DarkFire Key Features

What happens under the hood?
DarkFire is an analogue-like preamp and saturator plugin that offers an exceptional feature: after saturating your signal, you may detach the added harmonics, process them separately, and then blend them back with the original audio signal.

What are harmonics?
Harmonics are crucial in music production. Those are the frequencies that are integer multiples of a fundamental frequency produced when a musical note is played. They add richness, depth, and character to sounds, defining the timbre that makes each instrument unique. Enhancing harmonics makes audio more engaging and dynamic. Manipulating harmonics results in a more professional and emotionally resonant sound in music production. Only DarkFire can process them separately.

Where should I use DarkFire?
Separately processing harmonics enhances mixing by improving clarity and definition, allowing precise tonal shaping. It adds presence, depth, and creative effects. Instruments that benefit include guitars, bass, vocals, pianos, drums, strings, and synths. So basically: "Use on every track."

Independent Control
DarkFire gives you the power to independently sculpt and shape added harmonics, letting you seamlessly blend them back into your mix for a more dynamic and expressive sound. It adds depth, width, and movement to your audio.

Analog Modelled
Techniques like tube saturation and tape emulation introduce harmonics, adding warmth and fullness. DarkFire's shaping tools are modelled after legendary analogue hardware, including classic FET and VCA compressors known for their fast attack times and distinctive tones, vintage passive EQs offering warm and musical tone-shaping, and authentic tube saturation and tape emulation to infuse your audio with organic warmth and harmonic richness.

Harmonics Shaper
EQ and filtering make it possible to sculpt and shape the harmonics allowing you to place them where you need and not where you don't. In addition, compressing them allows you to mix more harmonics in with the dry signal without adding as much peak level.

Added Excitement
Add extra depth, width and movement to the harmonics to bring your sounds to life. This enhancement of harmonics not only enriches the sonic texture but also creates a more immersive and emotionally impactful listening experience, elevating the overall quality and professionalism of your music production.

Hassle-free software protection
No iLok, no dongle, or internet access is required for activation. Our software uses license files to activate your software. You can freely use the purchased software on all your computers as long as you are the user.

Automatic Gain Compensation
Automatic gain compensation quickly adapts to current settings and ensures the output sounds as loud as the input. This even protects you from thinking that something sounds better. In some cases, it is just louder.

Realistic 3D yet flexible GUI
The photorealistic graphic user interface of the plugin gives you the feeling you are touching the real hardware. But it easily adapts to your needs. You can always drag the arrow in the bottom right corner to change its size - make it smaller to save valuable screen space, or enlarge it to make it easier to use.

FREE 15-Day unlimited trial
All the descriptions are nothing compared to putting your hands on the plugin. No saving limits. No noises. No boundaries. Engage the plugin in your project for real and fully exploit its powers for two weeks.

64-bit audio quality at ANY sampling rate
The plugin provides the maximum audio quality you can get. It uses internal 64-bit audio processing and can handle any sampling rate. 192 kHz or even higher.

Smart bypass
The intelligent way our plugins manage bypassing ensures that you don't get any clicks or harmful noises when automating the parameter. It also compensates for latency, ensuring that the bypass states are perfectly in sync with each other.

Intelligent sleep on silence
This plugin intelligently detects whether it makes sense to perform processing at all. If not, it temporarily turns on sleep mode. In such a state, it requires virtually no CPU at all to save the computing sources for other processes.

Free-for-life updates
Our plugins never become obsolete. We keep track of the current operating systems and DAWs. You may always update to the most recent version for free, without paying a cent, a penny, or whatever currency you prefer.
