For decades, audio pros and cable cultists have argued passionately about one thing:
“That cable just sounds… better.”
Is it the copper purity? The molecular alignment? The quantum energy field of your wallet slowly emptying?
Meet Fire the cable, the first 100% FREE* cable emulation plugin that allows you to switch between cables with a single click. Because if you think you can hear the difference, now you certainly can.
Features you didn't know you needed
Three cable types, infinite opinions
- Audiophile deluxe™: adds “air” and “depth” you can’t describe
- Studio standard: neutral, balanced, unproblematic
- Budget bender: unreliable, unpredictable, undeniably “vintage”
Bypass reality: switch between truth and placebo in real time.
Stress saturation™: simulates that warm analog character of a cable getting stepped on during plug-in.
Unlike those $300 “oxygen-free, hand-braided, unicorn-hair” cables… this one’s FREE*.
Use Activation code: 404CABLEFOUND
to get it FREE*, activate via Aquarius desktop, and start shaping your sound with the only cable you’ll never need to replace. Because yes, it actually matters.
Your signal path has never been this unnecessarily detailed.
Finally, something that won’t break (or break the bank). Real cables wear out, you know. And because we can also model cables. So we did.
You're welcome.
Uh, don't have time to edit? We've got it covered. Fire The Cable features four carefully crafted presets designed to instantly shape your signal with the kind of subtle cable coloration that only the most elite golden ears can hear
Here's what you'll find:
- Analog vortex emulation: wraps your audio in a vortex of vintage warmth, interwoven with tonal nostalgia. Inspired by that cable that some swear makes their mixes “more 3D.”
- Quantum harmonic shaper: designed using advanced marketing physics. Perfect for unlocking that “extra 2%” in your mix you didn't know you had.
Warning: may cause complacency.
- Redshift tone matrix: shifts tone to imaginary spectral planes. Ideal for producers who describe sound with words like “emotional haze” and “dimensional bite.”
- Dynamic nullifier XL: removes all cable coloration so you can pretend to “hear the difference” when you go back. Comes with a built-in existential doubt.
* Fire the cable is FREE for anyone and it's available until April 30, 2025 at 11:59 pm CET.
