01 ยท Power
More weight. More density.
POWER is drive. It fills the sound out and makes it hit harder, while the saturation stays musical.

THERMITE A/B
Hear the difference.
Meet THERMITE
Three knobs between your track and a finished sound.
Drop it on a kick, a bus or the full mix. Turn the knobs until it does what you want. That is the whole workflow.
02 ยท Punch
Impact that hits forward.
Low-end weight plus real transient reinforcement. Kicks come forward instead of getting flattened.
03 ยท Shine
Clarity without harshness.
Brings out the top end and opens the stereo image, so detail cuts through on any system. Mono sources stay mono.
Everything inside
Built to push hard and stay clean.
Gain Match
Level-matched A/B, so you judge the sound and not the volume.
HQ mode
Higher internal quality for the most aggressive settings. One click when you render.
Consistent character
Set the sound once and it stays that sound, on a quiet loop or a hot master.
Output ceiling
Set your ceiling and it holds, on any material and at any sample rate.
Analyser
Waveform and spectrum views draw input against output, so you see exactly what is added.
28 presets
Sorted by where they belong: kicks, bass, drums, percussion, synths, mix bus and master.
Load it. Turn it. Hear it hit.
From a single kick to the master bus, in one plugin.

Questions.
Is THERMITE only for kicks?
No. Use it wherever something needs to hit harder: kicks, bass, drums, percussion, synths, the mix bus or the master bus. The 28 presets are sorted by exactly that.
What does the free demo do?
It is the full plugin: every control, every preset and the same processing as the paid version. The only limitation is a short silence at regular intervals. There is no time limit.
Switch on Gain Match and A/B it on your own tracks. That is the fastest way to know.
How do I install it?
There is no installer. Unzip the download, copy the plugin into your plugin folder and rescan in your DAW. On macOS, restart Logic and other AU hosts after copying.
How do I activate my licence?
Your licence key arrives by email after purchase. Paste it into THERMITE and activate online once. After that it works offline. One licence covers two computers.
Can I move it to another computer?
Yes. Two machines are active at a time and you manage them yourself. If a computer dies before you deactivate it, email us and we free the slot.
Which DAWs and systems are supported?
Windows 10 or 11 on 64-bit, macOS 10.13 or later on Intel and macOS 11 or later on Apple silicon. Any 64-bit host that loads VST3, CLAP or AU works.
Do you offer refunds?
All sales are final once the licence key is issued. That is exactly why the demo never expires: try it properly on your own tracks first.
Something is not working. What now?
Write to shop@darkgroundrecords.es with your DAW, its version, your operating system and what happened. A real person reads it.
