Remi Blaze dropped Furnix, a free macOS compressor plugin packing serious tech-house credentials. This feed-forward unit features adjustable soft knee up to 30 dB and switchable peak or RMS detection. An envelope follower holds for 50 ms while lookahead reaches 5 ms for crisp transients. Stereo linking varies continuously from dual-mono to fully linked operation.
Heat stage offers Coals, Flame, and Blast saturation modes with 4x oversampling plus auto-gain stability. Heat Link binds distortion intensity directly to compression amount for dynamic character. Punch circuit restores attack energy without affecting sustain decay. Sidechain filtering spans 20 to 500 Hz with mid-tilt focus and external input options. Release timing locks to host BPM divisions or blends via crest factor analysis.
Furnix Raw offers one-knob simplicity with a single SQUEEZE control that automates threshold, ratio, knee, punch, and heat simultaneously. Auto-gain maintains consistent output during adjustment. Sixteen presets cover Drum Bus Punch, Mix Bus Glue, Sidechain Pump, and Warehouse Heat scenarios. The Universal Binary runs AU, VST3, and Standalone formats on macOS 15.0 or later with Apple notarization.
