DeLorean is an audio plugin that is a time machine for mixing and mastering, or rather, a mastering tone machine. This is a universal solution for mixing and mastering with an endless variety of tones.
It is based on a powerful library of more than 120 emulations: reel-to-reel tape recorders, cassette recorders, vinyl records, shortwave radios, amplifiers, vacuum tubes and much more. Each can be mixed to add character, creating countless unique textures.
Beyond emulation, DeLorean features a rich analog harmonic engine that lets you dial in just the right amount of odd and even harmonics to shape your tone. Add an analog-style clipping circuit and a limiter for mastering, and you’ve got everything you need for flawless, release-ready sound.
To finish the setup, choose from 6 noise types to create authentic analog background hum, set the age to simulate tape wear and add character, or enable mono mode to check the balance.
And when inspiration strikes—or doesn’t—simply press the signature infinity button to shift the audio to any point in time with a single click.
So what are you waiting for? You’ll be telling me in the future to tell you to buy this. That’s it.
DeLorean—The Tone Machine for Mastering.
Step inside a time machine for audio. DeLorean is more than just a plugin, it’s a powerful tone-shaping tool that lets you mix, master, and manipulate audio using time itself.
At its core is a powerful analog harmonic system that lets you dial in just the right amount of odd and even harmonics, imbuing your tracks with musical richness and expressiveness. Add built-in analog tape compression and a mastering-grade output limiter, and your mix is instantly ready for release—no additional plugins required.
Need even more ambience? Add your choice of six authentic noise types to give your music a nostalgic texture and analog soul. Then age the sound with the Time-Age knob, engage mono mode for instant playback, or fine-tune the frequency spectrum with custom EQ curves for the low, mid, and high frequencies.
And for inspiration, hit the Infinity button—one click takes you to a completely random, era-inspired preset that will transform your mix into something completely unexpected.
