Modern sound design, simplified.
Wildflower Plugins
Built to replicate award-winning chains.
Crafted to grow far beyond.
the seed
Over the years there are certain processing recipes that always seem to find their way back into my designs...
These are timeless "tricks of the trade" that I've picked up from working on award winning projects for over a decade.
One day, after loading one of my go-to presets for what must've been the hundredth time, the idea finally landed:
"Why not build each chain into a single, powerhouse plugin?"
So I did.
I worked tirelessly. Tuning each one meticulously until they sounded better than the original chain, then pushed them even further.
Now I'm sharing them with you.

the 8% pledge
We're called Wildflower for a reason.
8% of our profits go to the Xerces Society, helping fund pollinator and wildflower habitat on farms and working lands. Their work has led to more than 1.5 million acres of flower-rich habitat since 2005 (figure per Xerces).
The Xerces Society takes its name from the Xerces blue, the first butterfly in North America known to be lost to human activity. They've been looking after butterflies, bees, and the wild places that need them since 1971. We're glad our plugins get to help.
