The Lineup
Available now. Buy and get your download + personal license key.
Pancake
A four-shape auto-panner — sine, triangle, saw, square — with tempo-synced rate, phase, and offset. Built for anything that needs to move.
Woodpecker
A BPM-synced trance gate. Chop pads, keys, or full loops into rhythm — rate, shape, depth, and pulse width. No step sequencer to program.
Slinky
A BPM-synced wobble filter — low-pass, high-pass, or band-pass with a tempo-locked cutoff sweep. Sine, triangle, square, or random.
RabbitHole
A sample browser that integrates seamlessly with your DAW. Point it at any folder, search by keyword, preview with a click, and drag samples straight into your project. Stop digging — start making.
Tube Temptation
Tube distortion. Surgical warmth to total destruction.
Pitchfork
Pitch shifter, ±2 octaves — a full ±24 semitones of freedom.

WHY_PLAIN_TOOLS
Most plugin companies sell you knobs you'll never touch and presets you'll never use, then charge a hundred dollars for the privilege. We build the opposite: small, focused tools that do exactly what they say, priced like the basics they are.
