One Window.
Three Pages. All At Once.

Most multi-FX plugins make you pick one thing at a time. TRIO does not. All three pages run in series, simultaneously, every time you play a note — the tabs are how you look at the plugin, not how it's wired.

Dream

Bitcrush, tape wobble, vinyl dust and a room that was never there.

Glitch

Freeze a slice, wash it in Juno chorus, throw it across the field.

Master

Bus polish with a lofi accent — gentle enough to sit on the mix.

Built For Every Dusty Genre

Every Effect.
Hand-Coded. No Filler.

Not fifteen presets of the same reverb. Fifteen genuinely different processors, each written from scratch in DSP, each with its own Mix knob and its own bypass. Blend one in at 20%, slam another at 100%, switch off the rest.

Bitcrush — Bit depth + rate reduction
Wow / Flutter — Tape pitch drift
Vinyl — Hiss + crackle, gated
Warmth — Resonant filter into valve drive
Space — Lush stereo reverb
Stutter — Buffer repeat glitch
Chorus — Juno-style BBD stereo
Dust — Granular noise grains
Filter LFO — Swept resonant filter
Ping-Pong — Cross-fed stereo delay
Tape Sat — dB-calibrated saturation
Tilt EQ — One-knob tone
Glue — Bus compressor
Tape Wow — Master-bus drift
Width — Mid/side + mono bass

Switch It Off.
Get The CPU Back.

Most multi-FX plugins fake their bypass — the DSP keeps running and the result is thrown away. TRIO does not. Every one of the 15 effects lives in its own processing node, so switching an effect off genuinely stops it computing. Run all fifteen, or run three. Your CPU meter will know the difference.

The Detail Nobody Else Does

Noise That Breathes
With Your Track.

Every lofi plugin gives you vinyl hiss. Most leave it running over your silence like a broken fridge. TRIO's Vinyl and Dust are gated by an envelope follower on your actual audio — the noise swells as you play and fades out on a tail when you stop. It behaves like surface noise on a record, not a noise generator underneath one.

The Juno Inside

A Chorus Worth
Turning On.

Not a generic sine-swept delay. TRIO's chorus is modelled on the bucket-brigade circuit of a classic 80s synth — triangle LFO, shallow sweep, bandlimited wet path, and no feedback, which is exactly why it stays lush instead of turning metallic. The right channel runs the inverted sweep, so the two sides drift apart and back together. Wide, warm and unmistakably vintage.

100 Presets, 9 Folders

Every Preset Uses
The Whole Plugin.

No filler, no near-duplicates, and not one preset that leaves two thirds of the plugin idle. From Sunday Tape and Rainy Window to Total Collapse and Blown Speaker — each one is a full-chain sound, filed into nine folders so you can find the vibe in seconds.

The Interface

Hand-Drawn.
Light Or Dark.

No brushed metal, no fake screws, no 200 knobs fighting for your attention. TRIO is drawn like a pencil sketch on paper — every stroke hand-rendered, with a full dark mode one click away. Hover any control and a plain-English description appears at the bottom. You will actually know what every knob does.
