WORMPLUGS

Plugins that do one thing properly.

No 400-page manual, no menu diving, no dial that does nothing. Every worm is built around a single job, tuned by ear, and shipped only when it earns its place in a mix. 24 hours free, everything unlocked.

Loopworm — seven lanes of loops, GENERATE, KEY and per-lane controls
OUT NOW

LOOPWORM

Drop in a sample pack — or a folder of your own sounds — and get an entire groove back. It listens to every loop, works out what each one is, lays them across seven lanes and locks the lot to your project tempo. Then you press GENERATE until you hear one you want to keep.

LOOPWORM

Works with the packs you already own, and equally with your own bounces and old project stems — point it at a zip or a folder. No re-tagging, no proprietary format, no dragging files into slots one at a time.

Out now Drum machine

DRUMWORM

A drum machine that writes the groove for you. Pick a vibe and a density, press GENERATE, and it builds interlocking house patterns across seven lanes — through its own drum synth or a kit of your one-shots. HOLD the lanes you like, re-roll the rest, drag out MIDI or audio.

Free Analyser

EARWORM

A spectrum analyser that listens to whatever you feed it and tells you the key and the chords — so you always know what you're writing over. Free, no code needed.

Intro price Reverb

VERBWORM

A reverb that ducks out of the way of the dry signal, so the tail sits behind the part instead of washing over it. Eleven finished rooms and eight dials — you're choosing a sound, not building one.

Intro price Delay

ECHOWORM

A delay with the same trick: the repeats duck under the part that's playing and bloom in the gaps. Eight dials, a PING PONG button that works on every preset, and eleven presets with DUB as the default.

Intro price Clipper

CLIPWORM

Take the peaks off and get the loudness back without the pumping. Hard, soft and everything in between, with a meter that tells you the truth.

How the trial works

  1. 24 hours, everything unlocked. No watermark, no disabled controls, no save limit. The clock starts when you first open the plugin, not when your DAW scans it.
  2. The instruments keep their grooves in. While Loopworm and Drumworm are unactivated you can play, GENERATE, edit and save all day — the only thing that waits for a licence is dragging audio or stems out.
  3. After that it steps aside. The plugin fades out for two seconds every thirty seconds of playback. Annoying on purpose, and completely harmless — an effect fades to your dry signal, never to silence.
  4. One code, all your machines. Activation is offline, so nothing phones home and nothing breaks when you're working without a connection. Earworm is free and never asks for one.

No noise bursts, no beeps, no voice tags. Nothing in a worm can make a sudden loud sound — that rule comes before every feature.

Formats

VST3 and Audio Units. Tested in Ableton Live and Logic Pro. AAX is not supported.

System

macOS 10.13 or later. Universal 2 — one download, native on Apple Silicon and Intel. Signed and notarised by Apple.

Installing

Open the .dmg, run the installer, restart your DAW. In Live: Preferences → Plug-Ins → Rescan. Logic rescans on its own. No security warnings.

Support

Every worm has a REPORT button that fills in the technical details for you and shows you exactly what it will send. For anything else, email us — a person reads it, not a ticket robot.
