DigMusiK
The library

Real outboard, captured by its owners.

Every signature in the library is learned from recordings of one real unit or chain, made by the member who owns it, and credited to them. Alongside them: the DigMusiK Originals, all free for registered members, and the chains and settings members build and share. Hear anything on your own audio, and load it in one click.

What you'll find

Hardware

Single units

Compressors, EQs, preamps, consoles and tape, each credited to the member who captured it. Units captured with working controls respond like the hardware.

Chains

Whole signal chains

A chain captured as a whole is one combined sound, shaped with Drive, Tone, Mix and Output. A chain built from single units lets you adjust every unit.

Shared

Chains and settings

Chains and single-unit settings members have built from hardware and Originals, saved from the plugin and shared with everyone. Open one and every unit stays adjustable.

Coming soon

Premium rare units

Gear almost nobody can get near, from units whose ownership has been checked against the serial number, priced by the owner and bought separately.

DigMusiK Originals

Thirty-one of our own. Nine free, for good.

Compressors, EQs, colour, reverbs, delays, modulation and every everyday mix tool, designed by us, with controls the classics never had. All 31 are free for registered members. None count towards Free's five, and each has a full guide where you can hear it on real songs.

DigMusiK Originals are our own designs. They aren't copies of any manufacturer's product and aren't connected with any manufacturer. See our trademark notice.

NAM captures

NAM captures, clearly marked.

You can load NAM captures (.nam files) you have alongside the library. They carry a NAM badge and credit their author and the Neural Amp Modeler project wherever they appear, so you always know a NAM capture from a DigMusiK signature.

NAM or signature?

  • NAM: one fixed setting, with DigMusiK's Input, Drive, Tone, Mix and Output around it
  • Signature: the unit's own working controls, a verified owner, measured accuracy and Print Recall

Every sound is labelled

Each signature shows who made it, every unit in it and its measured accuracy, so you always know exactly what you're hearing.
