WHAT THE PROS ARE SAYING
Analog Drift is a great new addition to my delay arsenal. It’s super easy to use and extremely vibey. The 3 different models make it versatile and it sounds great, well done Phantom Sounds!

Multi Grammy Award-winning record producer (Coldplay, Jay-Z, Portishead, PJ Harvey)
Analog Drift is amazing! It's like it read my mind. The Prism shift and Vaporwave Bliss delay texture is essentially what I need from a delay. It also means I can ditch a bunch of plugins and still get the textures I was always after. And the Tape and Ducker features? Total game-changers; this is my new go-to delay plugin.
- Matt Sim -
Grammy Winning Mixer (The Chainsmoker, Nicki Minaj, Ty Dolla $ign, Big Sean, Jackson Wang)
An echo and delay plug in that feels truly modern. This plug in has a built in sound that inspires creativity. This is going to be my go to when I want a mix to stand out.

EXPLORE VIGOR
EXPANSION CONTROLS
Precision Without Complexity
Getting the perfect amount of punch is straightforward with Vigor's familiar control set.
The Expand knob sets your threshold, determining which parts of your drum sound get enhanced and which stay natural.
Fine-tune the character with Attack and Release controls to shape how quickly the expansion responds to your drums.
Fast attack times grab transients immediately for maximum snap and crack. Slower attack times let the initial transient through naturally while building body and sustain.
The Release control determines how long the enhancement lasts after each hit.
Finally, dial in the Ratio to set the overall intensity of the effect.
TONE SHAPING
Instant Character Control
Sometimes your drums need a bit more than just punch, they need character.
Vigor's Tone control is a tilt EQ that lets you instantly add warmth or brightness to your enhanced drums without reaching for another plugin.
Twist left for a darker, chunkier sound that emphasizes the low-end body and weight of your drums.
Twist right for crisp, cutting presence that brings out stick definition, cymbal shimmer, and all the high-frequency detail that makes drums feel immediate and exciting.
The Tone control works synergistically with Vigor's expansion, shaping the enhanced signal for results that feel cohesive and musical.
PEAK MANAGEMENT
Clean Power, Zero Headaches
Vigor comes with a built-in Clipper that automatically manages and removes those extra peaks during the expansion process.
As Vigor enhances your drums and brings up the transients, the clipper intelligently catches any peaks that would cause problems downstream.
The clipper operates with surgical precision, shaving off only the problematic peak content while preserving the body, tone, and character of your drums.
The clipping is paired with oversampling controls up to 8x, giving you complete control over the quality and character of the peak management.
Higher oversampling rates deliver maximum transparency for critical material, while lower settings keep your CPU happy during fast-paced workflow sessions.
MID/SIDE PROCESSING
Dimensional Drum Control
Take your drum enhancement into the stereo field with Vigor's Mid/Side mode.
In Mid/Side mode, Vigor processes the center (Mid) and sides (Side) of your stereo signal independently.
Add punch to the center while leaving the sides untouched for a focused, powerful core with natural, spacious ambience around it.
Mid/Side processing gives you dimensional control over your drum sound, perfect for complex mixes where stereo imaging matters.
