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 happens under the hood?
DarkFire is an analogue-like preamp and saturator plugin that offers an exceptional feature: after saturating your signal, you may detach the added harmonics, process them separately, and then blend them back with the original audio signal.
What are harmonics?
Harmonics are crucial in music production. Those are the frequencies that are integer multiples of a fundamental frequency produced when a musical note is played. They add richness, depth, and character to sounds, defining the timbre that makes each instrument unique. Enhancing harmonics makes audio more engaging and dynamic. Manipulating harmonics results in a more professional and emotionally resonant sound in music production. Only DarkFire can process them separately.
Where should I use DarkFire?
Separately processing harmonics enhances mixing by improving clarity and definition, allowing precise tonal shaping. It adds presence, depth, and creative effects. Instruments that benefit include guitars, bass, vocals, pianos, drums, strings, and synths. So basically: “Use on every track.”
Independent Control
DarkFire gives you the power to independently sculpt and shape added harmonics, letting you seamlessly blend them back into your mix for a more dynamic and expressive sound. It adds depth, width, and movement to your audio.
Analog Modelled
Techniques like tube saturation and tape emulation introduce harmonics, adding warmth and fullness. DarkFire’s shaping tools are modelled after legendary analogue hardware, including classic FET and VCA compressors known for their fast attack times and distinctive tones, vintage passive EQs offering warm and musical tone-shaping, and authentic tube saturation and tape emulation to infuse your audio with organic warmth and harmonic richness.
Harmonics Shaper
EQ and filtering make it possible to sculpt and shape the harmonics allowing you to place them where you need and not where you don’t. In addition, compressing them allows you to mix more harmonics in with the dry signal without adding as much peak level.
Added Excitement
Add extra depth, width and movement to the harmonics to bring your sounds to life. This enhancement of harmonics not only enriches the sonic texture but also creates a more immersive and emotionally impactful listening experience, elevating the overall quality and professionalism of your music production.
