What does DARK SKY do?

Dark Sky is a playground for achieving mesmerizing texture & atmosphere, regardless of the sound you throw at it.

For this plugin, we studied every in and out when it comes to granular FX to create the ultimate tool for limitless creative outcomes.

Whether you're fine-tuning a single instrument or reimagining an entire mix - Dark Sky brings a unique spatial quality to your music, bringing each element to life.

It’s perfect for adding a rich, textural atmosphere to everything from synths, guitars and pianos to vocals and drums alike.

How does DARK SKY work exactly?

DARK SKY includes 6 unique fx parameters for shifting your sound into a dream-like soundscape.

The Number parameter determines how many grains are sampled from the incoming audio, controlling glitch delay-like textures & atmospheric reverbs.

The Speed parameter determines the playback speed (pitch of the grains). This allows you to shift octaves to dial in your desired outcome.

The Detune parameter subtly randomizes the pitches of the grains and modulates them to create an ensemble-like sound.

The Feedback parameter recycles grains back into the signal, working in much the same way as a Feedback knob on a regular delay. The higher the Feedback, the longer the effect will linger.

The Size parameter controls whether you want to make the grains smaller or larger, extending or shortening the length of grain size.

The Mix parameter controls the “wet” mix amount of the other 5 parameters that you want blended into your dry signal.

The Dark Sky is instantaneously effective!!!!

As a relatively new producer, I'm up for anything that will help me progress as quickly as possible. I seem to have good luck with the investments I have made in my endeavor to level up, and my investment in the Dark Sky plugin was no different! It instantly transformed and improved every sound I gave it, so much so I am presently working on 5 projects at the same time!!! I feel like the old lady on the hot sauce commercial... "I'd put that sh*t on everything!!!" Another unfair advantage in my favor!!!

Cymatics plugins are now part of my production arsenal, they are tools that make you approach sound design from a fresh perspective.

Easy to use and super cool!!

The melodies I make with synths are fuller and the track is less empty. It adds a real boost to the production without having to put more samples on top.

Super easy to use and great present to get you started to create magical touch

I was looking a quick way and happy surprise to spice up my bass. This plugin came in just in time and did make that happen. I particularly like the preset sound of Butterfly and Ghost.

Soundscapes for DAYS!!

This adds some very ethereal vibes. Put it on a send or on a melody buss and start turning ****. Automating some of them throughout the track will be next on my list to tinker with. Definitely a solid purchase.
