One channel of a 1980s British 24-channel console, measured channel by channel with my own capture process. Twenty came back alive. Pick one, push COLOUR, DRIVE and WARMTH, shape it with the console EQ, ride the fader, watch the VU. Digitally Analogue.
Downloads always point at the newest build. Every download is a full seven-day trial, no account, no dongle. After that it goes quiet until you activate it, and activation comes with the Plugged In tier on Patreon or Ko-fi.
The plugin asks before it counts anonymous usage (never audio or personal data), with a clearly labelled opt-out in its SYS panel. Details in the privacy policy. BR108 is proprietary software, © Box Of Rules, all rights reserved. Built with the JUCE 8 framework in line with the JUCE 8 EULA.
Every VOICE is one measured channel of the desk, named for what it does and sorted into matched pairs: WEIGHT, WARM, BIG, CLEAN, BRIGHT, TIDY, SOFT, LEAN, SMOOTH, and two OUTLIERs for when you want the desk at its strangest. Each has its own low-end reach, its own top, its own idea of how dirty it gets. The voice card shows the fingerprint and animates it while audio plays.
COLOUR is that channel's personality, from flat to four times what was measured. DRIVE is the channel's saturation, biased by how dirty it really got. WARMTH is the shared desk colour on top. Then the console EQ: LOW, MID and HIGH with switched frequencies, plus HPF and LPF.
A printed-scale fader and a VU per side, LINK to move both sides together, SWAP to cross them. Thirty-four factory presets, all volume matched, for drums, guitars, keys, vocals, bass and the bus. Community presets load from inside the plugin, and every dial takes a typed value.
Supporter builds always expire: each one plays until the end of the third month after it was built, and the clock in the footer shows the date. A fresh build is always on this page and your activation carries over. If your support lapses, the plugin goes back to quiet until it is renewed.

One channel of a 1980s British 24-channel console, as a plugin. In June 2026 I ran identical pink noise through all 24 channels of the desk at unity and kept the twenty that came back alive. Each one is a VOICE in BR108, with its own measured colour, its own drive character and its own place on the desk. COLOUR, DRIVE and WARMTH scale how much of that you get, and the console EQ, filters, fader and VU sit on top.

Supporter builds always expire: each one plays until the end of the third month after it was built, and the clock in the footer shows the date. A fresh build is always waiting on this page, and your activation carries over. It keeps the plugin current for the people paying for it.
AU, VST3 and AAX on macOS (Intel and Apple Silicon), VST3 and AAX on Windows, VST3 on Linux. Mono or stereo: hosted on a stereo track you get LEFT and RIGHT strips with LINK and SWAP, on a mono track you get one. Every download lives on the releases page.
Yes, and it asks first. It counts anonymous usage (a random install id, plugin version, OS and DAW, never audio), checks the trial clock and the activation, and fetches community presets when you ask for them. The usage counts have a clearly labelled opt-out in the SYS panel. Full details are in the Box Of Rules privacy policy.
