Ichor 1.0 · VST3 synthesizer for Windows

Four sounds in the corners.
Ichor plays everything in between.

A wavetable, physical-modelling and FM synthesizer built around a morph pad: drop presets into its corners and every knob follows your mouse from one sound to the next.

7 days, every feature, no card needed.

Ichor's oscillator page with the Northern Lights preset: two wavetable oscillators, a filter, envelopes and LFOs

Preset shown: PD - Northern Lights. Glass and Vowels wavetables, a 12 dB ladder filter and four slow LFOs.

Three things to try first

01 · Morph pad

Drag a dot, change everything

Load four presets into the corners and move the dot. Oscillators, filters, envelopes and effects slide together, so the space between two sounds becomes a sound of its own.

Lock the settings you want to keep, then let Mutate and Breed suggest variations of the sounds you like.

02 · New engines

Not only wavetables

Every oscillator can switch engine. Next to wavetable, sample, granular and spectral playback, Ichor has three engines of its own.

Physical
Plucked and struck tones: strings, mallets, kalimbas, keys. Brightness, damping and pick position are all yours to play with.
Additive
Organs, breathy winds and glassy pads from stacked partials, with tilt, odd/even balance and a moving formant.
FM
Four operators with feedback, for bells, electric pianos and the kind of bass that bites.

03 · Effects

A rack with character

Chain them in any order on the main output or on two buses.

Granular Delay Tape Shimmer Reverb Vocoder Transient Shaper Pitch Shifter Bitcrusher

Plus the everyday ones: distortion, delay, reverb, chorus, phaser, flanger, EQ, compressor, filter and band splitters.

Try it, then keep it

Free for 7 days

Every engine, effect and preset. The trial starts the first time you open Ichor. After day 7 it stays in your projects, keeps your settings and goes quiet until you add a license.

Questions

What happens when the trial ends?

Ichor still loads, so your projects open as you left them, but it stops making sound until you enter a license key.

Is it a one-time purchase?

Yes. You buy Ichor once and keep it; every 1.x update is included.

How can I pay?

By card, PayPal, Apple Pay or Google Pay, in a checkout run by Paddle. Apple Pay shows up on Apple devices and in Safari, Google Pay in Chrome and on Android. Your license key arrives by email right after you pay.

How many computers can I use?

Up to three. Deactivate one from inside the plugin to move the license to a new machine.

Do I need the internet?

Once, to start the trial or to activate your key. After that Ichor checks in now and then when you are online, and a licensed Ichor never goes quiet because you are offline.

Does it run on a Mac?

Not yet. Ichor is Windows only for now.
