Unify v1.8.2 BETA is now available with Native Apple Silicon Support included!
Watch the V1.8 Video to see the update in action!
Updaters:
Unify Installation is a 2-Step Process. Install the 1.8.0 or the new 1.8.2 Beta Unify installer, then install the Unify Factory Content.guru file into Unify (Run Unify, then drag the Unify Factory Content.guru file over Unify’s interface and say OK). Please Note: The Beta Installer does not have an AAX plug-in updater. New Users still need to download the FULL INSTALLER to get the 625 Patches, samples and presets to set up Unify.
Unify 1.8.2 is here and we have added Apple Native Silicon support along with fixes and refinements!
AAX Users – 1.8.2 Beta does NOT have an AAX plug-in due to Avid not releasing Native plug-in building support to us. Please use 1.8.0 but install 1.8.2 if you use standalone so you can work with the newest version. Patches are 100% compatible between 1.8 and 1.8.2.

Please scroll down the page to see the list of all the libraries available for Unify –
We also offer a FREE DEMO VERSION of Unify so you can try before buying if you wish. Everything works (saving is disabled, it can’t load any of our libraries, just play select patches from our factory content and scan your plug-ins to confirm how cool it is to layer multiple plug-ins you own inside of Unify!) The demo version will quit after 15 min of use. You can restart it again if you wish.
Anybody can now get the Full Installer or Updater files to download from either logging into your PluInGuru.com account or from our Distributer partner Ilio’s download links: https://www.ilio.com/unify-updates
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. 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.
New Libraries for Unify: Libraries that require ONLY Unify to work:
UniChill V1 UniChill V1 is an AWESOME chill oriented library created by Matthias Sauer and John Lehmkuhl. 260 patches of pure bliss for your musical adventures that require only Unify to work! Over 100 BPM Patches (Basses, Pads, Drum grooves, Keys and more!) plus 160 patches of Bass, Guitar, Keys, Lead, Pads and Plucks! While aimed at Chill, these sounds are useful in virtually any modern music genre.
CloudCity V1 CloudCity V1 contains Steel Tongue Drums (x2), 4 Urban style Hip Hop drum kits, 30 Percussion Instruments (multiple samples), Sub Basses, Granular Pads, Wind and environmental sound effects, Samples + phrases from the late Sunny Heartly playing custom built Native American flutes, Vocal Chops and more! A complete EDM/Dance/Chill/Ambient library.
Skippy’s BigBad Beats 300+ Recycled Drum Grooves created 20 years ago – still sounding awesome today! Also includes the grooves as audio loops.
UniScream 2020 (FREE) Uniscream is a community programmed Sample + Patch library that is free for Unify. A Pipe Organ, screams (or course!), incredible drum and metallic hit samples recorded while in a huge mine, a pipe organ and so much more. Any day can be turned spooky with this library! Libraries that require using an additional Plug-In to work:
DiscoverStation for the BBC Symphony Orchestra plug-in by Spitfire Audio A very special library where we use the incredible capabilities of Unify to layer all 5 of the Strings section (or brass section or woodwind section or all 3 at once + more) across the keyboard so you can play the entire BBC Symphony Orcehestra in real-time! Tons of MIDI Files give MIDIBox a chance to show off what a single MIDI file containing 1 note played in whatever rhythm chosen can turn into an entire string section in one of many BPM patches.
Airwave Melodic Techno for the Serum plug-in by XferRecords 245 Patches for Unify and 133 patches for Serum (378 Patches total!) This library pushes Serum into new territory! Listen to the demos to hear what it is like when multiple instances of Serum (up to 8 in some cases) are running to make the entire groove of a huge mind blowing dance track – all in realtime and thanks to Unify’s multi-core management! Synthesis never sounded SO GOOD!
UNIFIED Libraries – a Unified Library is where we save out each factory patch from a specific Plug-In in Unify format. This way you can easily combine any of the patches from ANY libraries you have to make new sounds. Instead of opening up a plug-in Interface to load patches, they are all there in Unify format. Right+Click to load ANY Patch into your existing patch to create a more complex PATCH!! Once you’ve start doing this – it becomes something you’ll do all of the time and wonder why no other plug-ins work this easily! In order to use these Unified Patches, you need to own the specific Plug-In, Unify and have for the most part the VST2 version of this plug-in added to Unify’s “Known PlugIn” list so the patches will load without error. Some PlugIns only come with a VST3 plug-in, so that is the format we support in those cases.

Reviews
Very well thought out with amazing features
When using Unify, I always feel that some really smart people have put a lot of thought into this software, how it will be used, and how they would use it. It’s truly a pleasure to use digital music software that has had so much care and attention put into it. Really, really good.

The only plugin you really want
Unifying Windows and Mac, extended midi control, making virtual synths performing better and so usable. It’s hard to not be inspired when playing with this hidden treasure. I’m so thankful for Unify, because now I’m actually using all my presets from my synths!
You can create song ideas in seconds.
Don’t hesitate, it’s worth every penny

DID Not Want To Even Look At This
I remember when Skippy first started talking about this little toy he came up with. I had already brought 80% of his libraries and some I have not used… just listen to all the cool sounds. So me the wife and Skip all agreed to just use the sounds you have and the sound that come with the plugins like Omnipherer, Native Instrument and so on.
Well the wife is gone for good and 90% of all the pluginGuru new videos always has this little Unify toy he keeps talking about…. So I looked into it and I am so mad i listened to the wife or skippy, Now I am like a year or 2 behind. Unify….. is and will always be my first go to plugin in.
This little toy has grown up to be a BAS…. close your mouth… music making machine. half way learn it, and you will be hooked for life.
I would give it 100 stars but it keeps me from getting to work on time from playing it all night so i will give it 50 starts…..lol

Mind blown!!!
For someone like me that LOVES creating huge leads by layering synths, this is truly magnificent! It’s a solid VST, easy to understand, with unlimited possibilities! The fact that you can apply a curve to the mapped parameters on the macros are INSANE (in a good way)!! You truly created something AWESOME!

Brilliant Plug In
Brings all of your plugins together in one sound design laboratory. Any instrument, any effect, in a huge plugin playground where everyone seems to get along! Unlimited potential for less than most people spend on their daily coffee in a month. Thank you for such an awesome well executed idea.

Buy it Now.......Gamechanger
I’ve been using this since it came out just over a year ago and it’s the best investment I’ve made in software.
Because it hosts all my plugins, it keeps all my favourite sounds in one place regardless of what format or plugin they’re on, so it has improved my workflow and creativity no end.
Support is second to none with John & Shane working round the clock to make sure their customers are always happy and informed.

On the fence but ended up buying it. It's Great!
I’ve been on the fence since watching the videos on unify and also enjoying the patches for bx oberheim and knifonium VSTs. I ended up purchasing it. The capabilities of this VST is amazing. You can load all your vsts in an instant through the plugin. Effects are good. you can Layer with ease. I mean just the presets themselves are great but it takes it over the top with what is capable. Super impressed with the macro controls for the Cherry Audio VSTs. For the price point I definitely recommend.

Simply extraordinary achievement. Nothing like this has ever been done before in the history of sample music production. Exhilarating and inspiring. Displays the power of Unify like nothing else.

One of the most creative and versatile plugins
Unify is one of the most creative and versatile plugins I have ever seen. It allows an extensive amount of creativity and stacking of plugins on the fly. Very useful for live jam-style one-man-band performances. I love the fact that it allows me to host AU and VST3 plugins, as the DAW I use (Reason) does not yet support these formats. With Unify, I can run all three main formats (AU, VST2 and VST3) together in the same session. Brilliant!
