What is Morphix Raw?
One knob turns any sound into a shimmering granular cloud. Morphix Raw is the free, one-knob version of Morphix: feed it audio and turn the single MORPH knob to dissolve your signal into a level-matched granular texture with vocal-formant character and pitch-spray shimmer. No sample loading, no menus: just the knob, the reactive Fire Head, and anything you throw at it: vocals, synths, drums, or pads.
Morphix Raw takes any audio and reshapes it through a real-time granular engine. As you turn MORPH up, the dry signal crossfades into a granular cloud, the vocal-formant morph deepens, and pitch spray adds shimmer: all held at a consistent level so you can push it without the volume jumping. Use it to add subtle movement to static pads, transform vocals into alien textures, or turn a simple loop into an evolving soundscape.

The knob
- 2MORPH: MORPH controls the depth of granular transformation. At low settings, you get subtle textural shifting: a gentle cloud of grains that adds shimmer and movement. Push it further and the signal dissolves into abstract, morphing soundscapes where the original source becomes unrecognizable. Automatic gain compensation keeps the output level-matched at every position.
Key specs*
| Formant filtering | Three parallel band-pass formant filters morph across vowel targets to give the grain cloud its vocal character. |
|---|---|
| Auto-normalize | The engine tracks input and grain-cloud peak envelopes and applies a bounded make-up gain to level-match, freezing below roughly −60 dB so it never amplifies noise. |
| Output safety | A DC blocker clears low-frequency buildup, and a soft clipper, hard limiter, and final NaN/Inf sweep bound the output on every block so no knob position can clip or run away. |
| One macro, hidden parameters | Only MORPH appears in the host's automation list; every other engine parameter is non-automatable but still saved and restored with the session, with zero reported latency so PDC stays stable. |
| Controls | One knob, MORPH |
| Formats | macOS: AU, VST3, CLAP, AAX, Standalone. Windows: VST3, CLAP, Standalone |

How do I use Morphix Raw on a track?
- Insert it. Put Morphix Raw on the track or bus you want to change.
- Turn MORPH up. Raise MORPH until it sounds right. At low settings, you get subtle textural shifting: a gentle cloud of grains that adds shimmer and movement. Push it further and the signal dissolves into abstract, morphing soundscapes where the original source becomes unrecognizable.
What about the full Morphix?
Love the morph? The full Morphix goes deeper. The Pro version opens up the full granular engine behind the MORPH knob, with deeper, hands-on control over the morph for producers who want to dig in. Every control is explained in the Morphix manual.
Keyboard and mouse shortcuts
These work in every Morphix Raw format (AU, VST3, CLAP, AAX, Standalone).

How is Morphix Raw different from Morphix (Pro)?
Morphix Raw gives you the granular engine behind a single MORPH knob with automatic gain compensation. The full Morphix opens up the complete granular engine with deeper, hands-on control over the morph.
Does Morphix Raw run on Apple Silicon and Windows?
