CHAINIX

One plugin. Eight effects. Endless character. Chainix stacks eight effect modules — Saturate, Filter, Compress, Crush, Chorus, Delay, Reverb, and Noise — into a single reorderable chain. Enable the ones you want, drag to reorder the signal flow, and dial in warmth, grit, movement, and lo-fi texture without loading an entire rack of plugins. Sculpt it live with the Hex Pad and modulate the whole thing with the Flux engine — built for tech house, glitch, and texture.

FEATURES

Core Architecture

◆8-Module FX Chain — Saturate, Filter, Compress, Crush, Chorus, Delay, Reverb, Noise
◆Drag-and-drop reordering — change the signal flow of all 8 modules in real time with 20ms crossfade protection
◆Per-module enable/disable and per-module save/load presets
◆Zero latency — no oversampling, no look-ahead

FX Modules

◆Saturate — 3 modes (Tape, Tube, Clip) with analog-modeled waveshaping and fold-back distortion
◆Filter — State Variable Filter (LP/HP/BP), 20Hz–20kHz with resonance
◆Compress — 3 tone modes (Punch, Glue, Squash) with parallel mix
◆Crush — continuous bit depth (2–16 bits) and sample rate reduction
◆Chorus — stereo quadrature LFO with rate and depth
◆Delay — tempo-synced (1/16–1/2) with filtered feedback and soft clipping
◆Reverb — size, damping, and independent wet/dry mix
◆Noise — 4 types (Vinyl, Tape, Static, Room) with wobble, sidechain ducking, and tone shaping

Global Controls

◆PHAT macro — boosts saturation drive, bass shelf, compression, and reverb size together
◆TRASH macro — increases distortion, bit crushing, noise, and feedback together
◆Flux Engine — Perlin-noise organic parameter drift with Flux Link for unified amount
◆Sub-Anchor — LR4 crossover keeps bass clean while the chain colors mids and tops
◆Master Mix (constant-power crossfade), output gain (-24 to +6dB), and true bypass

Hex Pad

◆2D XY performance controller with 6-corner mapping: Space, Flux, Heat, Crush, Wobble, Filter
◆Real-time cursor trail and a pulsing hexagonal outline tied to output level
◆Morph — automated cursor movement (Circle, Star, Triangle, Random Walk) with tempo-synced rate
◆IGNITE — randomize Hex position instantly

Performance & Chaos

◆Randomize (RND) and Entropy Shuffle — randomize parameters, or order and parameters together
◆Per-module locks — protect modules from RND and SHUFFLE, persisted across sessions
◆A/B snapshot toggle with constant-power crossfade
◆Freeze Chain — capture audio into a loop buffer via UI button or MIDI CC (learnable)
◆Evolve — slow organic parameter drift; Half Speed — record-then-playback octave-down
◆Wet Lock — forces 100% wet output for send/return setups

Chain Seeds & Presets

◆Chain Seed — encode the entire chain state into a compact alphanumeric seed; copy and load via clipboard
◆18 factory presets (Retro Crush Classic, Lo-Fi Tape, Vinyl Warmth, Tape Echo, Warehouse Glue, Full Destruction, and more)
◆Full save/restore via JUCE ValueTree state

Safety & Build

◆NaN/Inf protection, hard limiter, and adaptive DC blocker on heavy saturation or crushing
◆Hard-mute overload protection with smooth recovery, plus full parameter smoothing
◆Universal Binary (Intel + Apple Silicon), AU/VST3/CLAP/AAX/Standalone

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Is Chainix free?

No. Chainix is a paid plugin — a one-time purchase, no subscription. Once it's yours, you own it, including future v1.x updates. If you want a free taste of the engine first, grab Chainix Raw.

What are the 8 modules in the chain?

Saturate, Filter, Compress, Crush, Chorus, Delay, Reverb, and Noise. Each one has its own enable toggle, and you can drag them into any order to change the signal flow in real time — with a 20ms crossfade so reordering never clicks.

What is the Hex Pad?

A 2D XY performance controller that maps six corners — Space, Flux, Heat, Crush, Wobble, and Filter — to the chain. Drag the cursor to morph the whole sound at once, or let Morph animate it automatically along a Circle, Star, Triangle, or Random Walk path, tempo-synced to your project.

What do the PHAT and TRASH macros do?

PHAT boosts saturation drive, bass shelf, compression, and reverb size together for instant weight. TRASH pushes distortion, bit crushing, noise, and feedback together for instant grit. Two knobs, two directions — clean-and-thick or dirty-and-destroyed.

What is a Chain Seed?

Chain Seed encodes your entire chain — module order, enables, every parameter, and all mode selections — into a compact alphanumeric string. Copy it to the clipboard to save or share a sound, and load a seed to recreate an exact chain instantly.

Does Chainix run on Apple Silicon and Windows?

Yes. Chainix is a Universal Binary that runs natively on Apple Silicon (M1/M2/M3/M4) and Intel Macs, with zero added latency — no oversampling, no look-ahead. It also ships as a 64-bit build for Windows 10 and 11, as VST3, CLAP and Standalone.

START FREE WITH CHAINIX RAW

Not ready to commit? Chainix Raw puts a curated FX rack behind a single knob — free.

Chainix Raw runs the same engine through one CHAIN knob with automatic gain compensation — saturation, glue, width, delay, and reverb scaled together and auto-leveled, zero-latency. When you want to reorder the rack and dial every effect by hand, the full Chainix is on the way.
