There is no right or wrong – Your workflow decides what’s best.

Hardware

If you rely heavily on tracking or even mastering, our hardware should be your pick.

Plugins

If your workflow is 100% in the box, our plugins will be the best choice for you.

Eine einzige Linie bildet ein Unendlichkeitszeichen. Die linke Schleife steht fuer die Hardware, 500 series und rack. Die rechte fuer die Plugins fuer VST3, AAX und AU. Ein Lichtpunkt laeuft die Linie entlang; die Schleife, in der er ist, kippt dabei in die Tiefe. Darueber steht: designed as one, built as two.

What saturation actually does

What happens
when tubes clip softly?

01

clarity

Adds harmonics that make a signal easier to read — more presence, more focus.

02

harmonics

Weight, presence and definition, without turning harsh.

03

warmth

Rounder transients, richer mids, a fuller feel without mud.

04

loudness

More perceived level and punch without pushing the fader.

„Wow… I´m super happy with Lyra:MB! Such a nice style of saturation, great crossovers in and no artifacts!“

Why we build it this way

We fuse tradition
with innovation.

Running a vacuum tube outside its specification is not a defect — it is the point. The tube adds harmonics that were never in the source, and it does so gradually instead of at a hard threshold. That is what makes saturation read as weight rather than distortion.

„I never planned to release a plugin.

It was my development tool while I was designing the analog hardware. It eventually became too good at what it does.

I´m happy that people pushed me to release it.“

Christian Sager

„I fell in love with the unit and plugins right away. It does everything from being a smooth transient shaper to a tasteful colored saturation. I find new use for it in every session, it’s been on drums, bass, acoustic guitars and keys so far.“
