Grey Matter 1.0.0 for Mac
Mac UtilitiesGrey Matter is an audio plugin from Mixland that treats a circuit like a playground. It is built on physics based modelling of circuit strain, inspired by vintage converter stages from classic console hardware. Used gently, it adds warmth and smooth glue to a track. Pushed hard, it bends and strains the sound into far wilder places, and the fun is in exploring everything between those two points inside your DAW.
Key Features
- Physics based circuit modelling that turns real circuit strain into creative sound shaping
- Modelling of three vintage converter stages known for warmth and a smooth top end roll off
- Interactive sandbox controls let you push parts past their normal hardware limits
- Gentle settings give transparent glue, while hard settings give bold circuit bent colour
- Runs in AAX, VST3 and AU formats in major DAW apps on Mac and Windows
How to Download
- Download from the official site to start the free trial or buy a licence from Mixland.
