KNOCK
Professional drum processing for producers who demand punch, clarity and control.
Six precision-engineered modules in one plugin. Shape transients, sculpt body, glue your mix — all in seconds, not hours.
Same drums.Different universe.
Press play. Toggle between raw and Knock-processed in real-time — same loop, same position. No tricks, no edits. Just what Knock actually does.
Six modules. One workflow.
Every control on Knock's panel was built from the ground up to solve a real mixing problem. No filler. No presets hiding weak algorithms. Just the tools that matter.
Punch
Precision transient enhancement that brings drums forward in the mix with surgical accuracy — no pumping, no artefacts.
Smack
Mid-range definition engine that carves out space and adds character to every hit. Makes snares cut through dense mixes.
Glue
Bus-style compression that binds your drums into one cohesive, powerful unit. Vintage warmth, modern control.
Sub
Low-end generation that adds weight and body to kicks without muddying the mix. Tight, controlled, powerful.
Drive
Analog-modelled saturation for aggression and harmonic richness. From subtle warmth to full-on distortion — your call.
Room
Ambient space generator that adds depth and realism. Put your drums in a studio, a garage, or a cathedral — instantly.
Mix drums in seconds, not sessions.
Stop stacking five plugins on every drum bus. Knock replaces an entire chain with one unified interface — built by producers, for producers.
- Replace 4–6 plugins on every drum bus
- Zero-latency mode for tracking
- A/B compare built in
- Resizable UI — fits any workflow
Analog character. Digital precision.
Every module is modelled on circuitry from the drum records you grew up on — JUCE-built DSP refined against hundreds of reference tracks. It sounds right because it was tested against the records that set the standard.
- 64-bit internal processing
- Oversampling up to 16x
- Circuit-modelled saturation stages
- Three saturation modes: Soft, Hard, Clip
Starting points, not excuses.
