Studio scene with Pearce G1 and BC1 preamps, an unbranded CLX52 compressor, a Sonic Blue bass, and Buffalo One and Empire Squeeze plugins on the monitor.

Modern plugins. Analogue instinct.

Sound should move you.

Optymyse Audio builds deeply modelled audio plugins that react like the hardware that inspired them.

Our point of view

Meticulous by design. Musical by instinct.

Model the behaviour

We study the response, interaction and useful imperfections that give analogue signal paths their feel.

Voice it for the instrument

Every decision is judged against transient detail, harmonic character and the way a performance sits in a mix.

Remove the friction

Focused controls, fast recall and clear signal flow keep a session moving.

The plugins

Focused tools for shaping sound.

Every release starts with a clear job, a distinctive sound and controls that earn their place.

Bass Preamp · Available on Darkglass Anagram

Buffalo One

Two voices. One unmistakable presence.

A dual-channel bass preamp with four selectable units based on the Pearce G1 and BC1, each in stock and BS mod form.

VST3, CLAP, LV2 coming soon.

Compressor · In development

Empire Squeeze

Authority without the squeeze.

Characterful VCA compression that controls the low end while preserving movement and intent.

Limiter · In development

Level Head

Catch the peak. Keep the character.

A circuit-modelled CA3080 feedback limiter with hardware-fitted response, two attack personalities and natural, depth-dependent release.

Noise Gate · In development

Vector Gate

Silence the noise. Keep the note.

A transparent, single-control noise gate for Darkglass Anagram that clears hiss and hum between notes while adapting naturally to fast stops and long sustains.

Parallel Bass Rig · In development

The Big Rig

Build the bass sound around the performance.

A complete parallel bass environment combining Buffalo One, Vector Gate and Empire Squeeze with NAM captures of a Hartke LH1000 and HyDrive 115 cabinet.

Compressor · In development

Satsuma Squash

Sweet sustain. Natural sparkle.

A characterful guitar compressor with singing sustain, gentle bloom and the bright, touch-sensitive feel of a cult 1970s stompbox.

Bass Amplifier · Coming soon for desktop and Darkglass Anagram

Long Haul

Big amp feel. Built to travel.

Valve warmth, solid low-end punch and a cabinet with presence. A complete bass amp plugin inspired by the Hartke LH1000 and HyDrive 1×15 rig.

VST3, CLAP, LV2 coming soon.

OptyForge™

Model the circuit. Keep the soul.

We trace how a circuit reacts to level, frequency and playing dynamics, then rebuild that behaviour in software.

The finished plugin stays quick to use, easy to recall and ready for macOS, Windows, Linux and Darkglass Anagram.
