Visco 2.0
Turn any sound into something you can play
Drop in a sound you love and make it your own. Stretch it into chords, twist it into textures, or turn a single hit into a whole song. Visco is a sample-modeling drum machine (and also synth!) that keeps you in the moment when the ideas are flowing, and you don’t want to stop.
Ranked Andrew Huang’s #2 favorite plugin of 2024
Made by musicians, for musicians
Visco began with a simple frustration: spending more time clicking through menus than actually making music. We wanted a sampler that felt alive.
That’s why we built the blob: a playful, tactile way to bend sound. Instead of thinking about parameters, you’re shaping energy with your hands and chasing those sparks of inspiration.
With Tonal Mode, one sample is all it takes. A kick becomes a bassline, a clap becomes a chord, a found sound becomes the heart of your track.
What can Visco do?
Shape sounds like clay
The blob is a canvas for your audio. Grab it, pull it, erase it; every gesture changes the feel. It’s as hands-on as twisting a knob, but way more playful.
Two ways to play
Build tight beats in Kit Mode or turn a single sound into a complete instrument with Tonal Mode. Whether you’re sketching drums or playing melodies, Visco adapts.
Keep things moving
Add life with envelopes and LFOs. Subtle swing, shifting filters, evolving textures, your sounds breathe and change as you play.
Fuse two worlds
Drop in any two sounds and watch them combine to form something new. Blend a synth with a snare, merge a vocal with a pad, or experiment and let surprises happen.
Ideas, captured fast
An 8-track sequencer makes sketching effortless. Try variations, mute on the fly, or roll the dice for happy accidents, all without breaking your flow.
What people are saying
“Visco 2.0 turns the boundary-pushing drum machine into a polysynth – and makes one of last year’s best plugins even more of a must-try”
“…a wild, completely reimagined drum machine. […] There are so many beautiful ideas built in here. Visco sounds great and is very inspiring to use.”
“With this tool, samples can be altered in ways that were previously impractical. It really intrigues me a lot. A Swiss knife for sound design and strongly advised!”
“It almost feels like you can shape samples with your hands to make new sounds, or mix or morph them with other sounds.”
“From the remarkable results of its ability to re-synthesise audio files, […], Visco presents its users with a wonderfully original and experimental approach to drum programming.”
