Sculpt your harmonics

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! DarkFire enables you to sculpt only the added harmonics before layering them back with your original signal. This makes Darkfire an extremely flexible enhancer that adds excitement, movement, depth, and colour to your sounds. 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.

What is DarkFire?

DarkFire is an analogue-style preamp and saturator plugin that lets you saturate your signal, detach harmonics, process them separately, and blend them back for a richer, more dynamic sound.

Why Harmonize?

Harmonics, the frequencies that enrich timbre and depth, define an instrument's character. DarkFire uniquely allows precise harmonic manipulation, creating a professional, emotionally resonant mix.

Use Everywhere

DarkFire enhances clarity, tonal shaping, and creative effects, making it perfect for guitars, bass, vocals, pianos, drums, synths, and more. Essentially: use it on every track.
