Independent plugins · built for heavy music
Plugins that don't exist anywhere else.
Two plugins for heavy and prog guitar: Doppel turns one take into a convincing double, and Basalt turns your guitar into a bass.
Doppel goes wide up top but keeps the lows centred — so it holds together when your mix folds to mono.
What Lodestar is about
Four things we believe
Hear it first
A/B every plugin against the real thing right here — Doppel against a real double take, Basalt against a real bass. Hear exactly what it does before you decide.
Reinvent, never re-skin
We only ship when we can rebuild how a category actually works. Doppel doesn't detune a copy like every other doubler — it generates a genuinely separate take.
Pay once, it's yours
One price, no subscription, free updates for life. Activate once and it runs fully offline — no account to log into, no phone-home, no nonsense.
Has to hold up in the mix
A tone that only works soloed is useless. Ours are built to survive mono fold-down — phones, clubs, streaming — and sit right in a busy arrangement.
The catalog
The constellation grows
Two shipping now; two on the bench. Lodestone, a produced-tone amp engine, and Sextant, which gets a loose guitar take back in tune, are in the works.
