You can also Control+Click in the middle of the light green Key Range bar to move the whole bar up/down the keyboard retaining top/bottom note, fade and curvature settings.

Customers that bought Unify from websites other than PlugInGuru.com: Ilio.com is our AWESOME distributor for the version of Unify you can purchase from shops other than PlugInGuru.com -they have a page where you can enter your email address to get new download links: https://www.ilio.com/unify-updates
NOTE: There is no AAX (ProTools) version of Unify YET (but we’re working on it)
Listen to the audio demos, watch the patch and interface walk thru videos (as well as other support videos) and you will be inspired with what YOU can create after adding this amazing plug-in instrument to your toolkit!
Say hello to a NEW WAY of working with Plug-ins of all types! Unify can work with MIDI Effects, Instruments and Audio Effects in super creative fun ways. The Image above shows 2 MIDI Effects (in Yellow – also note that each MIDI Effect is actually running 2 MIDI Effects and could easily run more if you want to experiment), 3 Layers (in Green and each Instrument Layer also has a audio effect “channel strip” that can be loaded with an unlimited number of audio effects – drag and drop to change the order of the effects), 1 Aux Buss (in Blue) and the Master Channel (in a nice Royal Magenta color).
Unify Comes in VST (technically known as VST2), VST3 and Standalone for PC and Mac (Mac version also includes an Audio Unit version of Unify).
One of the cool things with Unify is that any format of plug-in can load other formats of plug-ins – meaning the Audio Unit version can easily load VST3 and VST plug-ins while you’re using it in Logic Pro X (which doesn’t know what to do with VST or VST3 plug-ins).
We talked to a number of small (like us) developers who have made some rather amazing free plug-ins in the last 20 years and received their blessing to include their plug-ins and audio effects – along with our own Guru Sample Player and 14 Effects we built ourselves so that Unify ships with 400 ready-to-play patches when you install it. BEFORE you even start loading your own plug-ins! That puts Unify in a totally different class than any other multi-plugiin: we include 6 Instrument and 40 effect plug-ins that John “Skippy” Lehmkuhl used to make the 400 patches that come with Unify. From simple to complex and everything in-between PLUS Laurent “AIRWAVE” Veronnez was able to add 30 additional Patches that push the limit on what Unify can do even farther than Skippy did. It’s breathtaking what has been created here. I spent 1+ year making this with Shane Dunne (the programmer of all the code in Unify) and I am still in awe at what we have created.
In closing, THANK YOU to each of you jumping on-board this Instrument/Plug-in. We have big plans for Unify. This is the ground floor and we’re thrilled you’re interested in joining us for this adventure!
New Libraries for Unify
UNIFIED Libraries – a Unified Library is where we save out each factory patch from a Plug-In in Unify format. This way you can easily combine any of the patches from ANY libraries you have to make new sounds faster than anywhere else and then save it as your own Patch for easy recall in the future. We have Unified 2 Plug-ins so far – BrainWorx incredible Knifonium and Synapse-Audio’s lush and powerful Oberheim-like synth Obsession.
In order to use these Unified Patches, you need to own the specific Plug-In, Unify and have the VST2 (also known as VST) version of this plug-in added to Unify’s “Known PlugIn” list so the patches will load without error.
JUST RELEASED: Unified for MOK’s Waverazor!
Download the Unified Library for MOK’s WAVERAZOR
If you don’t own Waverazor – we have a partnership with MOK from now until September 1st – Waverazor is $99! Use promo code: “Unified-Waverazor” to save more than $60 off the retail price!
Download the UNIFIED Library for BrainWorx Knifonium
Download the Unified Library for Synapse Audio’s Obsession
PlugInGuru Omnisphere Libraries – 6 Omnisphere 2 Libraries are now available with included Unify Patches for each Omnisphere Preset. These are commercial Libraries sold here for Omnisphere 2. You MUST OWN Omnisphere 2 for these libraries to work. If the library includes custom samples, then it MUST be installed into Omnisphere before you try to load the Unify patches. Just like the Unified libraries, the VST (or VST2) version of Omnisphere 2 must be installed into Unify.
PlugInGuru Libraries that come with Unify Patches:
TetraSonics by Tim Dale – brand new library released in July 2020. 256 Patches plus 10 of the 64 Multis plus 27 new Patches by Tim Dale and John Lehmkuhl that combine Unify and TetraSonic’s together for incredible bonus patches.
OmniVerse I: The Beginning – the first patch library for Omnisphere I ever created. Still one of the very best, imo!
OmniVerse II: The Dark Hope – omninous 2nd chapter of this Trilogy about the planet OmniVerse.
OmniVerse III: Aurora – the surprising magical Aurora light that saves the planet. The most cinematic of the 3 and includes bonus comic book and demo song by Amin Bhatia.
OmniChill – Huge Basses, plucky synths, cool BPM patches galore.
MegaMagic PADS – My best seller by far now with Unify Patches. 28 Unique Pads that have 6 samples across the keyboard in both Pad (slow attack) and Synth (fast attack) sample maps. Again – you MUST OWN Omnisphere 2, the VST (VST2) version MUST be known to Unify and this library MUST be installed IN Omnisphere 2 for these patches to work.
ESC Personal Flavours for Omnisphere – 256 Patches, 50 Multis and 45 NEW samples are in this super diverse library for Omnisphere 2.5! Created by 15 world-class programmers (some of them sell patch libraries on their own websites), this is a special library because the programmers made sounds that match their personal passions in sound design and patch making.
Bass Box for Trilian or Omnisphere – With 161 Patches and 110 effect “Rack” presets, there is some serious BANG for the BUCK in this library in the Bass department!
Repro 1 | Repro 5 Power Pack – 128 Patches of Yummy Analog Inspiration – 64 patches for Repro-1 (monophonic with an awesome step sequencer) and 64 patches for Repro-5 (8 voice polyphonic with MASSIVE Unison capabilities) in a single Power Pack.
FUTURE LIBRARY BONUS:
We’re working on an incredible library for Spitfire Audio’s BBC Discover Symphony Orchestra. This is a $50 plug-in that comes with 33 instruments (5 string sections, 5 brass, 5 woodwinds plus celeste, harp, glockenspiel, untuned orchestra percussion, timpani and more!). With the Spitfire Audio plug-in you can load 1 section per track…. however, with Unify we can load every section if we wanted into a single huge Patch! These 6 Bonus Patches show just the tip of the iceberg of what we’re working on for this library. With MIDIBox playing MIDI Files we’re going to present sounds you can interact with that will have your head spinning!
DOWNLOAD the BBC DiscoverStation BONUS 6 Patches
NOTE: You must own the BBC Discover Symphony Orchestra and have the VST (VST2) plug-in known to Unify.

Reviews
So beautiful!
Thank you John and Shane,
I am so grateful for your work. Not only did you deliver this mindblowing plugin called Unify, which in itself is a masterpiece allowing completely new ways in experiencing your other plugins, but you a continuing to expand it in ways that are just insane. Best example is this PolyBox MIDI effect. Just load the patch “SYNTH – PolyBox 8x Baby´s Dancing” and get lost in a total new way of sound. Increadible.
Greetings from Germany
Stay healthy

Amazing on so many fronts
I’m normally a preset only guy. I haven’t had time to jump into sound design, although I’d love to. Unify is the first product where I spend equal time crafting new patches and writing with them (and vice-versa). It is constantly being updated with MAJOR updates that would normally cost a considerable amount. John’s videos are compelling and the community surrounding this product is incredibly supportive. This is how things should be done.

Great Tool
I am more of a preset person (a bit lazy and bad eyesight ). But I am having fun mixing all my plugin, layer, split ……you name it. Thank you it’s great.
Nothing is perfect, and I imagine you want to know about the ”irritants” .
For a start the first library out would cost me +/- 300$ CAD Serum + library…… a bit to much for me.
But I suppose there will be library using plugin I already have…..
The second thing is more general, since Unify, plugin guru is really becoming a trans,dance…….. thing with Airwave taking much space. I am not a techno guy so the omnipresent kick drum ……. not for me. So I hope there will be other style of music with variations in drumbeats……. and a melody once in a while.
I’ve been a follower since the beginning of plugin guru, love what you did for omnisphere and keyscape. Just hope there is still some of that in you.
p.s. sorry for the weird English, I am french…….

Loving this app!
I’ve had Unify now for a while (since the release) and thought it would be a good time to give my two cents on it now that I’ve used it for a while. I absolutely love it! John and Shane did not disappoint!
Yes it may have a bug or two…but it’s evolving and just keeps getting better. I’ve been a long time user of Cantabile for live gigs and this will eventually be integrated into my live rig. For now I use it in Cubase 10.5 and it works as well as it does in standalone mode. I’m still experimenting with it in Maschine 2.
The videos created by John/Plugin Guru are great and I can’t wait to see how Unify will evolve in the future…seems like every week there is something new!

New to this
I’m moving to a new place and that means rebuilding my studio again. No time to dig in deep but I bought it right away.
This is a great tool, needs the right support. If you keep that in mind, old farts such as myself will be able to do some interesting stuff with it. It’s so great I don’t even know what it looks like yet. So, what are you gonna do next?

Patches then Possibilities.
I’ve been using Unify since its first release. It was the patches that hooked me at first. Then you get your head around the processes, and then you begin to see the possibilities Unify provides and you begin to realise just how deep the rabbit hole goes. Great support from John along the way too, with excellent live streams and direct tech support when I needed it. It really feels like there is a growing Unify community and I’m so looking forward to seeing how other users creatively employ Unify in the future.

Mind-blowing
To say that Unify is a cool plugin would be a gross understatement. I own over 800 plugins, so I have a pretty good frame of reference. And I can say without reservation that Unify is the most amazing music making tool ever created! And it will undoubtedly never be replicated. John and his colleagues who put this together are absolutely brilliant. I couldn’t even begin to describe all the useful features and do it any justice in a reasonable length review. You just have to get on the PlugInGuru website and check out some of John’s tutorial videos. Admittedly, the sheer volume of helpful instructional videos is a bit daunting, but once I understood how incredibly powerful and useful this plugin is, I knew I had to have it and that it would be worth investing whatever time it takes to learn it. It’s actually very intuitive and exquisitely designed. It’s just that John is extremely generous about taking the time to ensure that all of his customers are well educated. To cite just one property of Unify that I never thought I’d encounter: I have an older OS that struggles to run Logic with multiple instances of high CPU-consuming instruments, like Serum or Omnisphere. And I used to have to bounce MIDI files to audio and remove the instrument from a project to add another instrument. But with Unify, I can now run multiple instances of any of my 800+ instruments and plugins (within Unify) without crashing the project. The presets load almost instantly. This is some truly ground-breaking technology! That alone would have sold me on Unify. BUT THERE IS SO MUCH MORE!!! It far surpasses anything your mind can imagine about making a giant leap in music-making technology. You have to see it to believe it.

Deserves an Award
Only a musician could invent this. It is the missing tool that resolves incompatibility. Sure Omnisphere has multi instrument, Kontakt too, but only within their own libraries and yes you can layer in a daw, BUT not like this and so easily. I described it to my wife as its like looking at a long buffet table and all you have to is grab a plate. To install this is ease, for it to see your entire library of instruments is so quick and easy that within minutes you are in awe of beholding a new level of power, ease and creativity. Not only that but it is so very well thought out with touches like the instant favorites. It's easy to use, intuitive without needing a diploma. I love it, its already transformed how i work. The cream is comes with great sounds as usual – add the new Cloud City and youre in plugin guru heaven. I suspect this is just the beginning of where Unify will take us!

Speechless!!!
I really can’t believe what is here in this PlugIn It’s so complete 🙂
There is such a variety of sounds and grooves and setups, I’ve not experienced anything quite like it. Everything I try to put into words just sounds dumb, like ‘there is love in this plugin’, dumb right…
The install was simple and Unify worked stand alone without having to change anything, it also shows up as a vst3 instrument in Studio One and after scanning for vst’s and vst3’s I can load any of my existing instruments into Unify.
Some of the Split Keyboard patches could be complete songs in themselves and they cover so many genres of music…
Next level stuff. I’m really excited about getting more familiar with it and seeing how it can fit my creative workflow. Early days but I am very impressed!

Unify 1.7
Needless to say, JL has changed my life. All his patch collections were great and inspirational. But Unify is a crowning achievement. Don’t even think about it. Just buy it. Great investment!

A Must Buy for Windcontroller Players
The ability to map Breath CC02 to any plugin parameter even if the synth doesn’t accept Breath is priceless. The ability to play all your monophonic emulation plugins with polyphony is a game-changer. The ability to use your finely-tweaked layers, that took hours to create, in any DAW and on a Mac or PC, makes Unify a Must Buy. 🙂
