In their own words
Kilohearts Ultimate
Kilohearts Ultimate is a bundle of audio plugins for macOS and Windows, including the Phase Plant modular synthesizer, plugin hosts, effects, and Kilohearts Essentials. The listed products include Multipass, Snap Heap, Disperser, Faturator, Convolver, Filter Table, Shaper Table, Carve EQ, and Slice EQ. Phase Plant, Multipass, and Snap Heap use an open modular architecture for building instruments and effects. The included effects can run as regular DAW plugins or be combined and modulated as Snapins in a Snapin Host. The product page says a saved preset can be shared even if another person owns different Snapins. A DAW is required; documented system requirements include an x86 64-bit processor with SSE3, while macOS also supports Apple M processors. Kilohearts Ultimate costs $399, paid once and offers a 10-day trial. Content Banks are not included. Offline installers are available for Windows and Mac, with license keys required on the offline computer. Kilohearts Essentials is a free Snapins collection available with an account.
