§ 01 · Catalogue

One ready, two on the bench.

§ 02 · House rules

Four rules every plugin has to pass.

  1. Show the math.

    What you see on screen is what happens to your audio. If a plugin colours the sound, it tells you so.

  2. Respect the session.

    A project you save today should open the same way in every future version.

  3. Stay out of the way.

    Quick to load, quiet when idle, and nothing popping up between you and the mix.

  4. Keep it small.

    One job per plugin, done properly. If finding the good sound takes a manual, we're not finished.

§ 03 · Your account
