Our Story

We know how frustrating it is to chase a vocal sound you hear in your favorite songs — but can’t seem to recreate in your own mixes. You tweak EQs, adjust compressors, stack reverbs, move plugins around… yet the vocal still doesn’t feel right.

Not clean enough. Not wide enough. Not finished. Like many mixing engineers and artists, we spent years working across different genres, artists, and vocal styles — constantly rebuilding vocal chains from scratch.

Over time, we began documenting everything that actually worked. The complex signal chains. The subtle EQ moves.
The compression techniques and effect combinations we used on both emerging artists and major-label projects.

But there was a problem. Those chains relied on expensive plugins, analog gear, and years of hands-on experience to set up correctly. Recreating that sound wasn’t just costly — it required deep technical knowledge and endless trial and error.

That’s why we started CHAINS.

What began as an idea became a mission: to give every musician access to a professional, major-label vocal sound — without needing years of experience or thousands of dollars in gear.

CHAINS are built using only stock plugins that come with your DAW, carefully designed to deliver polished, industry-level vocal mixes fast — so you can focus on creating, not troubleshooting.

Shaping the Concept

We set out to create our first vocal chains by combining years of real-world vocal mixing experience with techniques used in professional studios worldwide. These vocal chains were developed alongside Grammy-winning engineers and major-label professionals, using the same tricks, workflows, and processing techniques applied to commercial releases. Every detail — from signal flow to dynamic control — was shaped by industry-level standards.

Desighning Perfection

Our goal was simple — to make professional vocal sound accessible to anyone.

The kind of sound that was once only achievable in top recording studios by engineers with years of experience.

We poured everything we’ve learned into these vocal presets — years of mixing vocals across genres, working with different voices, and applying the same techniques used by professional engineers worldwide. Every chain is built to deliver a polished, industry-level vocal sound, whether you’re recording at home or in a professional studio.
