I II III is an ear-first harmonic tool built around instinct. Three modes. One hidden state. From controlled texture to complete destruction, every option is designed to be chosen by feel. I throw it on everything—click—then trust my ears. — Alex Yake (Durand Bernarr, UnoTheActivist, Jordin Sparks)

123 wasn't designed in a vacuum. It came out of real sessions — the kind where the mix is almost there and you're reaching for something that doesn't exist on a plugin shelf yet. The engineering team at Create Music Group and Create Music Studios built it because they needed it.

The idea was simple: stop treating imaging and tone as separate problems. One tool. No menu diving. The result is something that behaves differently depending on what you run through it — because it's reacting to your track, not applying a preset to it.

Built for our sessions. Released for yours.

What it does

Three Buttons. One Decision.

Harmonic Color

Adds harmonic content to your signal — affecting tone, image, and perceived weight. Three modes. Infinite outcomes.

No Parameters

No input gain, no output gain, no mix knob. Load it, cycle through I, II, and III, and trust your ears. There's nothing to get lost in.

Near-Zero CPU

Stack it on every channel, every bus. It won't touch your session performance.

Three modes. Trust your ears. Pick the one that serves the mix.

What Engineers Are Saying.

You hack me?? Is it a plugin to f*ck with people? Love it

David Davis(Miguel, The War On Drugs, Hamish Anderson)

Dude this thing is super fun

Seth Munson(Teddy Swims, Nickelback, Lakeview)

Easy to use, you must trust your ears. Set it and forget it.

Jonathan Mireles(MGK, CHANMINA, Ear Ringers)

Sometimes, you wanna let the process surprise you. I love I II III because it reveals 3 audio paths to go through. III on drums today? I on vocals and II in the mix bus? It keeps me inspired, new, and out of plugin rot.

Jorge Lanzas(The Kooks, CHXNDLER, The Black Moods)

Simple, intuitive, and effective. You don't always need fifty knobs to get the right sound. With this, you just click a button and it sounds better. Period. We need more developers moving in this direction.

Shane Thompson(Soulidified, Thomas Austin, DC3)

There have been lots of hyped mixbus plugins lately that sound neat but anything notable stops there. 123 lends itself to so many genres and styles seamlessly, truly making everything sound finished. BEWARE THE SECRET MODE

Questions.

What does it actually do to my sound?

It adds harmonic content in a way that affects color, image, and perceived weight — inspired by hardware harmonic processing. It's not a saturator or a traditional exciter. The character it adds is shaped by what you run through it. Throw it on something and cycle through the three modes. Trust your ears. Pick the one that serves the mix.

How am I supposed to use it?

Load it, pick a mode, and move on. No knobs to set, no drive to dial in. It's a quick decision — I, II, or III. If none of those are hitting, hold Shift and click any button to engage a fourth mode. That's the whole workflow.

Do I need an iLok dongle?

A free iLok account is all you need. Once purchased, your license can be stored locally on your computer via iLok License Manager — no dongle required.
