SSL · 1176 · OPTO · VCA compressor + brick-wall limiter.

Four compressor characters in one box, each with its own detector and attitude — from the clean glue of a VCA bus to the fast bite of a FET. A brick-wall limiter sits at the end so nothing escapes.

NC Saturation

WARM · GLOW · GLUE · DIRT harmonic drive.

Four ways to put the harmonics back — from analog warmth to proper nastiness. Dial it in with drive, blend it in parallel, watch the curve bend in real time.

  • GLOW tube — asymmetric, even harmonics
  • GLUE console — cubic drive + stereo crosstalk
  • DIRT diode — aggressive, with safety limiter

FM at the centre, easy on the surface. Three layers — SUB, FM MID, noise TOP — four macros that do what they say, and a PRO view with every operator when you want to go deep. From 808s to growls, pads and plucks.

04 FAQ

Good
questions

Is it really free?
Yes. During ADE week every plugin and the complete bundle are free. We only ask you to follow @nobodyculture and leave your email so we can tell you about updates and new drops.
Which DAWs does it work in?
Any macOS host that loads AU or VST3 plugins. Each plugin also ships as a standalone app.
Windows or Intel Mac?
Not yet — this release is built for Apple Silicon Macs on macOS 15 or later. Leave your email and you'll be first to know when other platforms land.
Why does macOS block the installer?
The installers aren't notarized by Apple yet. Approve them once from System Settings → Privacy & Security → Open Anyway (see the guide above). After install the plugins open normally.
Can I change the colours?
Yes. Every plugin has the ORANGE and YELLOW NIGHT skins plus a CUSTOM editor with a contrast check. Skins can be exported and shared as .ncskin files. Click the plugin name in the header to switch.
How do I uninstall?
Delete the plugin from /Library/Audio/Plug-Ins (or ~/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins if you installed "just for me") — Components for AU, VST3 for VST3 — and the app from /Applications.
