Cyberdrive Core

Cyberdrive Core

The distortion arsenal

Cyberdrive is the distortionest distortion in the world, but some jobs do not require three distortion units, a feedback module, and extra effects. Therefore, UP created a handy, prompt and straightforward version of Cyberdrive. CyberdriveCore is a quick-to-use tool which will get you straight to the results while saving your computer's resources. It contains the same 64 distortion models as its "big brother".

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.

FREE for Cyberdrive owners

A license for Cyberdrive unlocks CyberdriveCore, too. So, if you already own it, CyberdriveCore is at your disposal. There's no need to buy both licenses.

Upgrade at any time

Whenever you decide to upgrade your CyberdriveCore experience, you may grab Cyberdrive at an upgrade price (shown after you log in to your United Plugins account).

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.

64-bit audio quality at ANY sampling rate

The plugin provides the maximum audio quality you can get. It uses internal 64-bit audio processing and can handle any sampling rate. 192 kHz or even higher.

Smart bypass

The intelligent way our plugins manage 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.

Free-for-life updates

United Plugins plugins never become obsolete. They 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.
