HEAR THE SOUNDS OF ETHER

Features expansive presets crafted by the AIR engineering team. Listen to a preview to hear samples from this amazing multi-effects plugin.

PITCH-PERFECT

With the ability to adjust and blend, PITCH gives you complete control over your sounds' timbre. Tuning your reverb up can add shimmering, ethereal qualities, suitable for creating otherworldly textures and soundscapes. Pitching down, on the other hand, can add depth and weight, perfect for lo-fi crunch.

RISE AND SHINE

Take your tracks to new heights with mesmerizing MODULATION. Easily control rate, mix, and stages to achieve subtle and lush swells to mind-bending motion.

RINSE & REPEAT

With the ability to feed the input from the dry, pitched, reverb, or mix, add DELAY in ways that previously seemed impossible. Time and feedback controls allow you to sculpt the effect to your exact liking, whilst sync and mix make it easy to sit perfectly into your mix. With cross control, you can create dynamic, bouncing echos that make your tracks stand out from the crowd.

SONIC MASTERPIECE

Add layers of sonic paint to your music with ANIMATION. Whether you want to create gentle ripples, choppy stutters or pulsating beats, our range of selectable shapes and adjustable parameters provide a colourful palette of sound.

COMPRESS TO IMPRESS

Whether you're a seasoned pro or just starting out, COMPRESSOR is the perfect tool to finely tune your sound's dynamics. With flexible input options, adjustable attack and release settings, you can dial in just the right amount of compression.

MAKING WAVES

If you're looking to add subtle pitch modulation or rhythmic effects, our LFO is the secret weapon for adding character to your sound. Explore endless possibilities with a range of triggering options that can easily sync to your project tempo.

The ultimate sound alchemist

With its advanced algorithms and intuitive controls, you can add depth, richness, and texture to any audio source, from vocals and guitars to synths and drums. Whether you're a producer, musician, or sound designer, Ether opens up a world of sonic possibilities that will inspire your creativity and elevate your productions to the next level.

  • Eric Frampton

    "To me, the most fun part of Ether is when you start playing around with the more non-typical reverb controls, like modulation, LFO, pitch shift, and animation. The interface invites exploration - you could get happily lost in sound design options for a while."
