Auburn Sounds Couture is a professional transient shaper and saturation plugin designed for modern music production and mixing. It provides precise control over attack, sustain, and dynamics, allowing producers and audio engineers to enhance drums, tighten mixes, and add punch and clarity to instruments. Featuring advanced transient processing, volume-independent shaping, and built-in harmonic saturation, Couture delivers clean, transparent results with optional analog-style warmth. Compatible with VST, AU, AAX, and LV2 formats on Windows, macOS, and Linux, Auburn Sounds Couture is available in both free and full versions, making it an essential tool for producers seeking powerful dynamic control and sound enhancement.

Raw Efficiency
Adjust dynamics up or down instantly and get usable, musical results in seconds. No complicated setup. No guesswork.

Fully Volume-Independent
Enjoy complete freedom to adjust input gain without affecting how the processing behaves — even when using the built-in saturation stage. Your tone stays consistent and predictable.

Laser-Sharp Detection
Powered by a 2-band, half-spectral, RMS, program-dependent detector, Couture accurately identifies every transient — without relying on internal thresholds. That means more natural and transparent dynamic control.
