A Unique Jog Wheel Control

The 4 Sugar bands are processing your sound in parallel and work in mono, stereo or M/S mode. Once you have found the proper balance that suits your sound, use the jog wheel in order to intuitively add more or less Sugar.

Linear Phase Filters

High-pass and low-pass filters are used in order to reign-in bursts of energy. Sugar's filters and the 4 band crossovers are all linear phase in order to allow for mastering grade processing and avoid phase issues.

Designed to be the Perfect Enhancer. Listen for yourself.

    Bass 1
    Bass is a difficult instrument to place in the mix. Often is does not read well and you’re stuck with it being too loud or too soft. Sugar’s LOW and MID sections were designed in part to help with that. The DRIVE circuit is also very useful to bring out harmonics and help the bass cut through. In this example you can immediately hear how the LOW section creates a pillow at the bottom and how the saturation brings the harmonics up. It also adds a cool buzz to the track which will help the bass cut through the mix without having to be pushed up.

    Sugar never tasted so good… This is a highly usable, enjoyable plugin and a no-brainer if you don’t have a sonic sweetener in your plugin folder.

    The Air band, in particular, is pure magic in its lifting effect, and it’s always worth trying both modes for every band, as the differences between them can be profound.

    Sound on Sound

    Sugar is an appropriately ‘suck it and see’ sort of a processor. And, for the most part, it’s on that delivers gratifying results very quickly.

    Rating: 4.5/5

    Sugar definitely sweetens tracks. Whether you are a songwriter just trying to quickly enhance tracks or a seasoned audio, tired of placing a few plugins, Sugar does the trick brilliantly.

    Bobby Owinski

    I’ve been looking for the right processor for this for a long time, ad I think I’ve found it with Sugar.

    Version 1.1.2 2019-04-10
    - Significant CPU load saving (up to 20%). The plug-ins pure DSP code has been optimized in all the Sugar modules (compressors, harmonic enhancers etc..). Drawing of the In / Out gauges and the histogram has also been optimized. Most significant savings will occur when some of the plug-in modules are turned off (ex: one of the 4 bands at 0, saturations, filters) as the DSP those modules will be completely bypassed and only re-activated when need be. - Linear Filters latency improvement. We've lowered the latency induced by those high quality filters as low as possible (at least as good as industry standards) in order to allow for smooth automations and acceptable GUI / Sound correlation when those knobs are tweaked. - Level Management bug fix. Closing the GUI would switch off the LVL MGMT if it was on. It is now fixed.
