The complete signal path.
Capture, warp, granular engines, modulation, morphing, and FX are visible together, so you can move quickly from small adjustments to radical transformations without losing the sound in menus.
Hypnaut Audio / Closed Beta / 2026
Prosperity bends sound between texture, motion, and melody.
A granular morphing processor for sound designers, producers, and experimental musicians. Fracture audio into glitching grains, reshape it into spectral-vocoder tones, blur it into shimmer and reverb, or move smoothly between all of these states while keeping the result playable and musical.

Product
A focused processor for shaping sound into movement, texture, and atmosphere.
Prosperity captures incoming audio into a circular buffer, breaks it into grains, and reconstructs it through two independent engines before pushing the result into spectral warping and morphing stages. The point is controlled instability: metallic grain, blurred memory, formant damage, spectral bloom, frozen motion, and sidechain-shaped transformations that remain playable.
Architecture
Five processing stages.
A
Warp Curve Editor
Seven anchor nodes control how spectral frequencies are remapped before synthesis. Seven algorithms (Standard, Accurate, Spawned, Evolved, Dissonant, Colliding, J/Hyde), each producing a different result. Any node or handle can be assigned as a modulation target.
B
Dual Granular Engines
Engine A and Engine B run simultaneously, each with independent Shape, Size, Tilt, Density, Speed, Pitch, Magic, and Pan. Both read from the same buffer and feed into the spectral stage. The buffer can be frozen, grains can be reversed individually or together, and MAGIC adds random scatter to grain positions.
D
Spectral Morph
Blends the spectral content of two sources in real time. Four morph types cover magnitude-based blending, phase interaction, and gravitational approaches. A sidechain input can be used as the second source, and MORPH is fully modulatable.
C
Modulation
Two independent LFOs, each switchable between three modes. Classic is a standard LFO with rate, waveform, fold, phase, pulse width, and level. Shapable applies the same controls to a morphable curve. Draw lets you paint a custom waveform by hand. Both support host sync, retrigger, and invert. An envelope follower (ENV/SHAPER) tracks incoming signal amplitude with speed, character, body, and punch controls. All sources route to most parameters across the engines, warp section, and morph stage.
E
Hive FX
A diffusion-based delay and reverb with controls for size, feedback, diffusion, width, and mix. Low diffusion settings produce clear repeats; higher settings build a denser, more continuous tail. An internal LFO modulates delay time for pitch movement and chorus effects.
Software Licensing
Prosperity will be sold as a perpetual license. We believe musicians, producers, and sound designers should be able to own the tools they depend on and keep access to the sounds used in their projects.
Hypnaut Audio may offer optional subscription plans in the future if the user base asks for them, but perpetual licensing will remain the default.
Closed beta
Limited early access.
We are looking for producers, sound designers, film composers, and experimental musicians who work with complex, layered, or textural sound and want early access to a tool built specifically for that kind of work.
Beta slots are limited and reviewed manually. Accepted participants receive a free full licence when Prosperity releases.
FAQ
Practical notes.
Beta
How do I apply for the Prosperity beta?
Fill in the form on this page. We review applications manually and prioritise people who describe how they actually work — what music they make, what they're trying to achieve. Beta slots are limited.
What do I get if I'm accepted into the beta?
Access to Prosperity before public release, direct contact with development, and a free full licence when Prosperity launches commercially.
General
How do I get support?
Use the contact form on this page. We're a small team and read every message personally. For ISS migration questions, select "Account Migration" as the subject — it routes straight to the right place.
Are you working on anything besides Prosperity?
Yes, but we don't announce things until they're close to done. Subscribe to the beta list to hear first.
Product
When is Prosperity available to buy?
We don't have a public release date yet. We'll announce via the mailing list. Sign up for the beta to be first in line.
Is Prosperity a subscription?
No. Hypnaut Audio plugins are one-time purchases. You own what you buy. We don't believe in renting software.
What platforms and formats does Prosperity support?
Prosperity ships as VST3 and AU on macOS and Windows. Minimum CPU: Intel Core i5 or Apple M1. Sample rates 44.1 kHz – 192 kHz. No additional samples or libraries required.
Does Prosperity require an internet connection to run?
No. Once installed and activated, Prosperity runs entirely offline. We don't phone home, collect usage data, or require account authentication to open a session.
