The Analysis Engine
It doesn't guess. It listens.
GhostMode chains are not presets with a fancy name. Capture a passage of your audio and the engine measures it — spectrum, dynamics, transients, stereo field — then prescribes a chain built for exactly that material.
The Loop
Capture → Analyze → Turn the knob.
-
Capture
Arm a capture and play the part. Analysis is strictly capture-driven — the ghost only rebuilds when you ask, never behind your back mid-take.
-
Analyze
The engine fingerprints the capture and prescribes a hidden smart chain in your chosen style — module choices, settings, the lot. Open the inspector to see exactly what it built.
-
Ride the intensity
One knob scales the whole prescription from a whisper to full possession. Your macros stay live on top for final polish.
Pick a personality
Nine of them are transformative — the engine holds those to a minimum-change floor, so "Mangle" never comes back sounding polite.
Engaged = audible
When GhostMode is on, the smart chain is the only path you hear, your rack UI locks to say so, and every meter and visualizer reads from the chain that is actually making the sound. No secret parallel mush.
Two Brains
Offline forever. AI when you want it.
The offline analysis engine ships in the plugin and never costs a cent. The AI layer is a switch, not a wall.
Offline analysis
- Runs entirely on your machine — nothing leaves it.
- All 20 styles, full capture analysis, instant results.
- No account, no license checks, no network. Ever.
AI prescription
- Analyze consults the GhostWare service — a model briefed on every module, your chosen style, its mood, and an optional text prompt from you.
- Verify-and-refine: the plugin renders the AI's chain offline and the loop iterates until it is noticeably processed and clean.
- Hard rail: a chain that clips more than 1% of samples is never published to your session.
- Service unreachable or out of credits? The click falls back to the offline engine — you always get a chain.
Privacy
Fingerprint first. Audio only by choice.
By default the AI request contains a compact numeric fingerprint of your capture — spectral and dynamic measurements, not sound. Your audio stays on your machine.
- Fingerprint mode (default): measurements only. Nobody can listen to numbers.
- Full-audio mode (opt-in): send the capture itself when you want the model's ears on the actual material.
- Your words, sanitized: the optional prompt field is clamped to 100 plain characters before it travels.
- Kill switch: the AI toggle lives in Advanced settings; off means offline, period.
The Meter
One credit. One Analyze. That's the whole model.
Every AI Analyze click costs exactly one credit — all refine rounds included. Credits never expire and purchases stack. The Full License starts you with 3; packs go from $4.99 when you want more.
