01 / PROTOCOL

Sound that blows your mind, simple, and honest.

DIR·01

Spatial & experimental

Movement, distance, orbits, textures that fill the field. Sonic space, pushed to the impossible.

DIR·02

A single screen

Complex processing inside, few knobs outside, and a living visual that shows you exactly what you're hearing. No hidden menus.

DIR·03

Backed by physics

Real Doppler, HRTF, physical reverberation. Genuine pro sound — and no selling you a "3D" that doesn't exist. Movement you feel, not smoke.

DIR·04

Free & open

The whole catalog, free and open-source. The tools we actually use, for everyone.

02 / MODULES

A family of instruments for outer space.

MOD·00 / PRIMARY SIGNAL Free

ORBIT

Binaural spatial movement. The deep engine the whole family is born from.

MOD·01 / MOVEMENTComing soon

PULSAR

Auto-pan with chaotic orbits and real Doppler. The movement obeys physics, not an LFO.

MOD·02 / SPACEComing soon

NEBULA

Reverb that breathes: impossible, infinite spaces.

MOD·03 / MOVEMENTComing soon

DUST

Binaural echoes: scatter reflections of your sound as bubbles orbiting the head.

MOD·04 / SPACEComing soon

HALO

Shimmer: an infinite celestial choir climbing octaves.

MOD·05 / SPECTRALComing soon

HORIZON

Spectral freeze with a pulse: hold an instant, then gate it to the beat — pad to stutter.

MOD·06 / SPECTRALComing soon

AURORA

Spectral panning: every frequency to its own place in the field. Real width, mono-safe.

Who's behind OVNI?

04 / FAQ

What people ask.

What is OVNI Audio?

OVNI Audio is an indie label of spatial and creative audio effect plugins. The whole family — including the flagship, ORBIT — is free and open-source. Philosophy: simple interface, pro sound backed by real physics.

Are the plugins free?

Yes — everything OVNI ships is free and open-source (AGPLv3). Out now: ORBIT, the binaural movement engine, and SUPERNOVA, the visual synth. The rest of the family (PULSAR, NEBULA, DUST, HALO, HORIZON, AURORA) is coming soon.

Which formats and systems do they run on?

VST3 and AU on macOS; VST3 on Windows. Compatible with Ableton Live, FL Studio, Logic Pro, Studio One, Reaper and most DAWs.

What is a spatial or binaural movement plugin?

An effect that moves sound through 3D space around the listener using psychoacoustics (HRTF, ITD/ILD, Doppler effect). It creates a sense of movement, distance and immersion, especially on headphones.

What is the best free plugin for space and movement?

ORBIT — the free binaural engine: placement, orbits and real Doppler on one screen. And to see your sound, SUPERNOVA. More free modules (PULSAR, NEBULA, AURORA) are on the way.

05 / MANUALS

Every module ships with a full bilingual manual: what it is, a 5-step quickstart, the signal flow, every control explained, plus tips and troubleshooting.
