Look closer
Every pixel, deliberate.
Hand-built controls. Physics-correct knobs. A UI that looks and feels as good as it sounds.
Shaper curve + drive
Draw your distortion. The live transfer curve reacts to drive, density, and character — so you can see the bend before you hear it crack.
Feedback loop with teeth
Blend, speed, low/high filters, and pitch on a post-drive feedback path. Sidechain-gated so it breathes with the source — wild when pushed, musical when restrained.

Built different
Small team. Real humans. Shipping daily.
The big plugin brands take years between updates. We ship improvements every day — because we're small, fast, AI-accelerated, and actually listening to the people using our plugins.
We iterate faster than anyone
Leading AI in our dev workflow means we ship new features, new plugins, and bug fixes on a near-daily cadence. Waves took 20 years to update their EQ. We update every week.
You ask, we build
Tell us what you want in the plugin and we'll build it. Suite subscribers get direct access to the dev team — submit feature requests and see them shipped, usually within the week.
Here to disrupt, not extract
No iLok dongles. No paid "upgrade plans." No sales teams taking a cut. We skip the middlemen and price our plugins at what they're actually worth. Pro-grade DSP at indie prices.
Got feedback? Send it our way — we read every message, and we ship what the community asks for.
Questions, answered
Everything you need to know.
What is RysUpBerzerk and who is it for?
RysUpBerzerk is a character distortion + saturator with a feedback loop, an EQ, a sidechain input, and dynamics on the output. It's for anyone who wants grit, heat, and attitude — from subtle vocal warmth to wrecked drum-bus aggression — without losing the mix under the effect.
How does the feedback path work?
The feedback module takes your signal post-drive, colors it (blend, speed, low/high filters, pitch), and feeds it back into the input. It's what gives Berzerk its signature motion — unstable when pushed, musical when restrained. Sidechain-triggered so you can gate the feedback off transients and keep the source present.
Where does RysUpBerzerk sit in the mix chain?
On vocals: after the compressor, before reverb — it adds character without turning the vocal into mud. On drums: on the parallel bus for attitude. On guitars: straight into the front of the chain for grit. On synths: anywhere — it's built to take a beating.
Will RysUpBerzerk work in my DAW?
Yes. RysUpBerzerk ships as AU, VST3, and AAX for macOS (Universal — Intel + Apple Silicon) and Windows 64-bit. That covers Logic Pro, Pro Tools, Ableton Live, FL Studio, Studio One, Cubase, Reaper, GarageBand, Bitwig Studio, and every other major DAW.
What's the difference between the Suite subscription and buying outright?
Buying outright gets you this one plugin forever. The Rys Up Suite subscription ($9.99/mo on annual, $14.99/mo on monthly) gets you every current plugin plus every future plugin we release — one price that unlocks the entire catalog.
Do I need an iLok or dongle?
No. We use a simple license key system. Install once per machine, activate with your email and key, and you're done. No iLok account, no USB dongle, no annual license-manager fees.
Do you offer refunds?
Yes — and we back it with our 30-day fix-it guarantee. Hit a bug? Want a feature added? Email support and we get on it. If we don't ship the fix or feature within 30 days, you're entitled to a full refund, no questions asked. In practice we usually ship within the week — but the guarantee is yours either way. That's the benefit of a small, fast, customer-driven team: you talk to humans, not a ticket queue.
