Meet Haze: The Plugin That’s Like a Warm Hug for Your Cold, Digital Tracks

Tired of mixes that sound more sterile than a lab coat? Haze is here to melt your audio into a gooey, analog-flavored masterpiece. Think of it as your DAW’s new BFF—part vintage tape wizard, part chaos-loving sprinkle machine. Let’s turn your tracks into a cozy campfire (minus the smoke alarm).

Why Haze? Let’s Get Saucy:

Saturation Station: Crunch your synths, hug your vocals, or give your drums a “I just time-traveled from 1973” vibe. Five knobs to dial in anything from gentle warmth to full-on tape rebellion.
Wow & Flutter: Because perfection is overrated. Add wobbly, warbly charm like your tape machine drank three espressos. “Is this a vintage vinyl or a plugin?” (Spoiler: It’s Haze.)
Tape Delay: Throw your echoes into a time machine. Degrade them like they’ve been sitting in a dusty attic, or keep ’em crisp—your call, Captain Chaos.

Bonus Features for the Nerds Who Want It All:

A/B Presets: Flip between two settings faster than a DJ drops a beat. “Did I prefer the ‘Soul Stew’ preset or ‘Apocalyptic Lullaby’? Let’s find out!”
Stereo Menu: Mid, Side, Mono, Stereo—because sometimes your track needs a hug, and sometimes it needs a wrestling match.
HQ Oversampling: Crank it to 16x and watch your CPU sob softly. Worth it.
Power Button: For when you need to pretend you’re not using any plugins. “Nope, that warmth? All natural, baby.”

How to Haze-ify Your Life (in 3 Seconds Flat):

• Mac: Drag, drop, vibe.

• Windows: Click through warnings like, “Yes, I trust this sketchy-sounding ‘viator-haze-setup.exe’—I live on the edge.”

  Licensing

  • Single-user license: you may install on up to three computers that you personally own and use exclusively.
  • The perpetual license key unlocks the trial software, so there is no need to re-download.
  • License keys are sent as the tracking number in the Shipping Update email. Please allow up to 1 business day to receive a purchased license.
  • Internet access is required during first run for license activation. Make sure you are connected to the internet and that access is not being blocked by antivirus software. 

  Compatibility

  • MacOS 10.12+ / Windows 10+ 64-bit
  • Audio Units (AU), VST3

  Although we have made every effort to ensure that our plugin is compatible with newest versions of the most common DAWs, it is not practical for us to test the plugin in every version of every DAW — especially older versions. This is why we make the plugin available to you as a fully-functional trial — so that you may test it in your DAW to ensure compatibility before purchase. If you have an issue with your DAW, please email us.

• Download

  Try it for free for 15 days. The trial and paid versions are the same download; purchasing a license key removes the time limit.

Ready to Haze All Over Your Tracks?
Grab the manual, twist those knobs, and remember: if your mix isn’t slightly on fire, you’re not using enough Drive.

Haze: Because “clean” is for dishwashers.

P.S. We’re not responsible for excessive head-bobbing, air-guitar solos, or DAW crashes caused by 16x oversampling. You’ve been warned.
