What is Purix Raw?
Purix Raw is the free, one-knob way to clean up any track in a single move. Turn the PURIFY knob and Purix's spectral suppressor: the same engine from the full Purix: tracks and tames harsh resonances, boxiness, and sibilance in real time, with auto-makeup holding the loudness so the sound just gets cleaner, never quieter. It works on vocals, drums, synths, or the full mix: set it and listen while you mix.
Quick start
Get a result with Purix Raw in under a minute.
- Insert it. Put Purix Raw on the track or bus you want to change.
- Turn PURIFY up. Raise PURIFY until it sounds right.
- Compare. Bypass the plugin in your DAW to hear the difference.

The knob
- 2PURIFY: a single macro that drives the suppressor's depth, detection sensitivity, and auto-makeup together. At low settings you get gentle, transparent cleanup. Push it further and the suppressor digs in harder, pulling down resonant peaks in real time while staying surgical. Auto-makeup keeps the output level-matched at every position for an honest A/B.
Key specs*
| Dynamic spectral resonance removal | A short-time Fourier transform analyzes the signal frame by frame, comparing each frequency bin against a smoothed local average and pulling down only the bins that spike, so it tames resonant peaks while the rest of the spectrum passes through untouched. |
|---|---|
| Per-bin dynamics | Suppression uses attack, hold, and release smoothing with frequency-dependent auto-hold and hysteresis, so the taming reacts musically and never chatters or pumps. |
| Mono-low phase guard | Below roughly 150 Hz the left and right suppression are linked, keeping the low end phase-coherent and mono-safe. |
| Constant reported latency | Because it works on the frequency spectrum the FFT size is pinned, so the reported latency never changes mid-stream and stays stable for host plugin-delay compensation. |
| Output safety | A DC blocker preserves headroom, a gentle soft-clipper engages only near full scale as a 0 dBFS safety ceiling, and a final NaN/Inf sweep guarantees clean, bounded output across the whole knob range. |
| Controls | One knob, PURIFY |
| Formats | macOS: AU, VST3, CLAP, AAX, Standalone. Windows: VST3, CLAP, Standalone |

How do I use Purix Raw on a track?
- Insert it. Put Purix Raw on the track or bus you want to change.
- Turn PURIFY up. Raise PURIFY until it sounds right. At low settings you get gentle, transparent cleanup. Push it further and the suppressor digs in harder, pulling down resonant peaks in real time while staying surgical.
What about the full Purix?
Need surgical control? The full Purix goes deeper. The Pro version unlocks the full spectral resonance suppressor with per-band control: target specific frequency ranges, dial detection and suppression independently, and clean up exactly what you want with precision. Every control is explained in the Purix manual.
Keyboard and mouse shortcuts
These work in every Purix Raw format (AU, VST3, CLAP, AAX, Standalone).
| Reset a control to its default | Double-click the knob or slider |

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Purix Raw free?
Yes. Purix Raw is completely free: freeware, no trial, no nag screens, no expiration.
What does the PURIFY knob do?
PURIFY is a single macro that drives Purix's spectral suppressor: it tracks and surgically pulls down harsh resonances, boxiness, and sibilance in real time. Auto-makeup holds the level so the track just gets cleaner, never quieter.
How is Purix Raw different from Purix (Pro)?
Purix Raw gives you the Purix spectral resonance suppressor behind a single PURIFY knob with auto makeup. The full Purix unlocks the complete spectral suppressor with per-band control.
Does Purix Raw run on Apple Silicon and Windows?
Yes. Purix Raw is a Universal Binary that runs natively on Apple Silicon (M1/M2/M3/M4) and Intel Macs, and ships as a 64-bit build for Windows 10 and 11.
What formats does Purix Raw come in?
Purix Raw ships as AU, VST3, CLAP, AAX and a Standalone app on macOS, and VST3, CLAP and Standalone on Windows. It's a Universal Binary, so it runs natively on Apple Silicon and Intel Macs in any AU/VST3/CLAP/AAX host: Ableton Live, Logic Pro, FL Studio, Cubase, Reaper, Bitwig, and more.
Will Purix Raw change my levels?
No. Auto-makeup gain compensates for the energy the suppressor removes, so perceived loudness stays steady across the whole PURIFY sweep. The track just gets cleaner, not quieter, keeping your A/B honest.
Where can I find more about Purix Raw?
On the Purix Raw page: its features, system requirements and how to get it.
How do I get and install Purix Raw?
- Get it. Purix Raw is free. Get it from the Purix Raw page.
- Run the installer. On macOS, double-click the .pkg file and choose AU, VST3, CLAP, AAX or Standalone. On Windows, run the .exe installer and choose VST3, CLAP or Standalone.
- Open your DAW. Restart your DAW and rescan plugins if needed, then find Purix Raw under Remi Blaze in your plugin list.
More about Purix Raw, including its features and system requirements, is on the Purix Raw page.
Where are the plugin files?
If you need to find Purix Raw on disk, for example to troubleshoot or to uninstall it manually, these are the standard locations.
| macOS AU | ~/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components/ |
|---|---|
| macOS VST3 | ~/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST3/ |
| macOS CLAP | ~/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/CLAP/ |
| macOS AAX | /Library/Application Support/Avid/Audio/Plug-Ins/ |
| Windows VST3 | C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3\ |
| Windows CLAP | C:\Program Files\Common Files\CLAP\ |
To uninstall, quit your DAW and delete the Purix Raw file from the relevant folder. Your DAW will stop listing it on its next rescan.
Need help with Purix Raw?
If something isn't covered here, or Purix Raw doesn't behave as described, contact support or email support@remiblaze.com. To get an answer faster, include:
- your operating system and version (for example macOS 15.6 or Windows 11)
- your DAW and its version
- the format you're using (AU, VST3, CLAP, AAX or Standalone)
- the version you installed (shown in the installer and in your download), since the About panel of every Raw shows v1.0.0
- what you did, what you expected, and what happened instead
This manual is for Purix Raw 1.0.1. Controls and settings can change between versions, so if something here doesn't match what you see, check the version shown in your installer or download. Spotted a mistake or have a question? Let us know.
