Five processors, each built to do one job properly — tone, warmth, mass, depth and width.
Each plugin is built for one purpose — and that purpose is optimized and perfected.
Five different ways to shape a frequency — surgical, musical, harmonic, phase-aligned, and tonal. Every filter curve tuned by ear.
Five processing stages in series — harmonic enrichment, transient shaping, spectral tilt, multiband cohesion, and stereo control. Built from perception research.
Precision low-end processing. Shape transient and sustained energy independently — without one affecting the other.
Depth Engine is a perceptual depth and space tool. It places sources at a believable distance - from close and intimate to far and roomy - using natural distance cues, with an optional impulse-response mode. AU + VST3 + AAX for macOS, VST3 for Windows.
Width and depth as a choice. Believable stereo space with a firm centre and mono-safe low end. AU + VST3 + AAX for macOS, VST3 for Windows.
All five plugins — Tonality EQ, Warmth Engine, Mass Engine, Depth Engine and Dimension Engine — in one purchase. The complete Buchert Audio suite for precision, tone, low-end, depth and width.
Each plugin answers one perceptual question you ask while mixing — controls that don't serve it are cut. Parameters and defaults are shaped by structured listening on real productions, and nothing is released before it survives critical listening in real sessions.
The result is tools that feel musical from the first touch. Not because we measured it — because we heard it.
macOS 11.0 Big Sur or later (universal binary — Intel + Apple Silicon). Windows 10 or later (64-bit).

One-time online activation. Up to 3 machines. No iLok, no dongle, no subscription. Free updates.
Your license is activated through a one-time online check. Enter your license key, and the plugin verifies it with our server and stores a signed license file on your machine. After that initial activation, no internet connection is needed to use the plugin. No iLok, no dongle, no subscription checks. You can activate on up to 3 machines and deactivate at any time to free up a slot.
A permanent, single-user license with up to 3 activations. No subscription. All minor updates within the same major version are included for free. Instant download after purchase.
Major version upgrades (e.g. v1 to v2) may be offered at a discounted rate. Existing customers receive 50% off major upgrades. Upgrades are always optional — your current version continues to work.
We aim to maintain compatibility with current macOS and Windows versions. However, plugins are provided as-is for the OS versions listed at the time of purchase. If Apple or Microsoft introduces breaking changes, we will make reasonable efforts to update, but this is not guaranteed for older versions.
Yes. Currently enrolled students receive 40% off all products. Send your proof of enrollment (student ID, enrollment letter, or .edu email) to hello@buchertaudio.com and we will set you up personally by email.
If we ever discontinue operations, we will release a universal license unlocker that removes the activation requirement from all Buchert Audio plugins. Your plugins will continue to work indefinitely — no server dependency, no expiration. We believe you own what you paid for.
