The distortion to end all others

The final word in distortion has just been said. You may throw all your distortions in the TRASH, now. With a great help of Dr. Distorstein United Plugins created a weapon of mass distortion. They wrote the final chapter and made the distortionest distortion that crushes everything. The last distortion standing,  the insane drive that will drive you insane, is called Cyberdrive.  

Unleash the Power of Distortion

The heart of Cyberdrive lies in its "Dist" modules. Craft your unique distortion profile with up to three modules in synergy. Each module features a powerful filter system. It lets you fine-tune the tone and character of your distortion with high-pass, low-pass, and multiband crossovers. Each distortion has a dedicated gain-compensated Drive and Mix to dial in the perfect balance.

A Multiverse of Distortion Models

Choose from 64 distortion types across eight distinct categories, each meticulously designed to offer a spectrum of sonic possibilities. The Control knob allows you to fine-tune the character of your distortion by adjusting parameters unique to each model, giving you precise command over the sonic signature of your sound.

Analogue Simulations

Three of Cyberdrive's distortion categories offer realistic gear simulations. You can emulate the warmth and character of analogue hardware (Classic), capture the essence of iconic guitar pedals (Pedal), or engage the power of famous guitar and bass amplifiers (Amp).

Shape and Crush

Other distortion categories let you explore. The Modern section offers dynamic distortions and wave-folding using cutting-edge techniques like multiband companders. Inject digital chaos with bit-crushing, rate reduction, and glitch effects (Pixel), or sculpt your sound with wave-shaping techniques like rectify and asymmetric clipping (Shape).

Doom and Freak

Push the limits with extreme custom distortions that go HARD. There are eight in the Doom section. Freak category lets you experiment with avant-garde techniques like ring modulation, FM and spectral.

Feedback Like Never Before

Harness the versatility of the FEED module to create everything from subtle enhancements to wild, screaming feedback effects. This module features various delay modes such as synced, milliseconds and pitched, allowing you to perfectly time your feedback. With the ability to send feedback into its own input or include other modules inside its feedback path, the FEED module lets you explore uncharted sonic territories.

FX Arsenal

Elevate your productions with the extensive range of FX modules, each designed to give you precise control and perfectly complement your distortions. Each module is intuitively designed, offering depth, speed, and creative freedom.

Dynamics and Tone

Tame or unleash your sound with compression, gating, and transient shaping (Dynamics), and shape the frequency content with EQs and filters, shaping your mix with precision (Tone).

Get Creative

Other modules allow you to add movement with modulation effects like chorus, flanger, and tremolo (Motion), transform your audio with resonant effects, including cabinet simulations and metalizers (Profile), and craft lush soundscapes with time-based effects such as reverb, delay, and diffusion (Space).

Embrace the Unexpected

Break free from routine with Cyberdrive's advanced randomization feature. Effortlessly spark creativity with the random modes, allowing you to shuffle parameters and stumble upon new, inspiring sounds. Choose to randomize specific sections or the entire plugin, and with the ability to undo any changes, you're free to explore without limits.

Total Control Over Signal Flow

The Order section puts you in complete control of your signal chain. Drag and drop modules to reorder processing stages or double-click to enable or disable them, allowing you to tailor the plugin to your exact needs. Whether experimenting with complex routings or auditioning single modules, the ORDER section ensures your workflow is as smooth and intuitive as possible.

Hassle-free Software Protection

No iLok, no dongle, or internet access is required for activation. Our software uses license files to activate your software. You can freely use the purchased software on all your computers as long as you are the user.

Automatic Gain Compensation

Automatic gain compensation quickly adapts to current settings and ensures the output sounds as loud as the input. This even protects you from thinking that something sounds better. In some cases, it is just louder.

Realistic 3D yet Flexible GUI

The photorealistic graphic user interface of the plugin gives you the feeling you are touching the real hardware. But it easily adapts to your needs. You can always drag the arrow in the bottom right corner to change its size - make it smaller to save valuable screen space, or enlarge it to make it easier to use.

FREE 15-Day unlimited trial

All the descriptions are nothing compared to putting your hands on the plugin. No saving limits. No noises. No boundaries. Engage the plugin in your project for real and fully exploit its powers for two weeks.

Smart Bypass

The intelligent way the plugin manages bypassing ensures that you don't get any clicks or harmful noises when automating the parameter. It also compensates for latency, ensuring that the bypass states are perfectly in sync with each other.

Intelligent Sleep on Silence

This plugin intelligently detects whether it makes sense to perform processing at all. If not, it temporarily turns on sleep mode. In such a state, it requires virtually no CPU at all to save the computing sources for other processes.

Free-for-life Updates

The plugins never become obsolete. United Plugins keep track of the current operating systems and DAWs. You may always update to the most recent version for free, without paying a cent, a penny, or whatever currency you prefer.
