What it is

Adrift is a shoegaze reverb. Feed it a guitar, a vocal, a synth — anything — and it turns that sound into a huge, warm wall of ambient texture.

It is the sound of a dozen reverb-drenched guitar tracks, built from two knobs, instantly. No routing, no send chains, no thirty-band setup. Load it, pick a preset, and play.

HEAT — warmth and saturation. Dry and present at the bottom; warm, saturated, sun-on-the-water at the top.
MELT — the size of the wall. How far the sound dissolves, from a touch of space into pure endless reverb.
FREEZE — grabs the sound playing right now and holds it forever, an infinite pad you can play over the top of.

You do not build a sound in Adrift. You pick a feeling and start playing. It runs as a VST3, AU, or standalone app on macOS and Windows, and as VST3 and standalone on Linux.

The photo in the plugin's window reacts to the knobs. Turn up HEAT and MELT and it gets grainier and more blurred, so you can see how much you are applying at a glance.
