SIX VOICE CIRCUITS

Cut through
the room.

Six deliberately larger-than-life voices, from handheld horn to a cheesy movie ballpark PA. Select a circuit to see its tone settings, then fine-tune those same controls in the native builds.

NATIVE EARLY ACCESS / 0.7.2

Shape it
onstage.

Put a carnival midway, a crackly school announcement, or a movie-ballpark voice behind your microphone. The current Mac package includes a standalone live app and AU/VST3 plug-ins, with eight real-time faders including Distortion and Reverb. Windows and Linux builds remain in testing and are not included in this purchase.

  • Six voice characters, from handheld horn to stadium PA
  • Starts armed with −12 dB output trim; lower your physical mixer first
  • Escape-key panic mute when the window has focus
  • Beta software: rehearse and test your setup before a show

MAC AVAILABLE / WINDOWS + LINUX IN TESTING

Mac now. More to come.

The current $19 early-access purchase requires an Apple Silicon Mac running macOS 27 or later. The shipped Mac binaries declare macOS 27.0 as their minimum. Windows and Linux builds have passed automated audio-engine tests but still need real-world host and audio-hardware validation; they are not included in this purchase.

Open BarkerBox as its own Mac app. Connect a microphone or audio interface, choose a voice, and route the processed sound to your interface output, speakers, or mixer. Built for experimenting, rehearsals, announcements, and live-performance setups.

PLUG-IN / INSIDE YOUR AUDIO HOST

Put it on a track.

INSTALLATION / EARLY ACCESS

Install BarkerBox.

The Mac 0.7.2 DMG includes AU, VST3, the standalone app, and START-HERE installation notes. Windows and Linux are not included in this purchase.

  1. 01

    Download the Mac DMG

    Use the DMG link in your Gumroad receipt or library. Your browser saves it to Downloads, or asks where to save it if you have that preference enabled. After opening the DMG, move BarkerBox.app to Applications, the AU component to ~/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/Components/, and VST3 to ~/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins/VST3/. Mac requires Apple Silicon and macOS 27 or later.

  2. 02

    Open it once

    The Mac DMG is Developer ID-signed and Apple-notarized. Open the app normally after installing. Keep Gatekeeper enabled. If macOS reports a security warning, stop and contact FORGE support with the exact message rather than bypassing it.

  3. 03

    Connect your microphone

    Allow microphone access when prompted. Choose your audio interface as the Mac’s default input and output device before launching BarkerBox.

  4. 04

    Start with the mixer low

    The new beta starts armed, with −12 dB output trim. Lower the physical mixer or speaker level before opening it, then choose a voice and adjust the faders. Click Live Output On to mute, or press Escape for panic mute when BarkerBox has keyboard focus.

FORGE Multimedia Group LLCEARLY-ACCESS CARE

Build with us.
We listen.

BarkerBox is a beta: you may encounter bugs, host incompatibilities, or changes between releases. We want reports from real sessions and will publish tested fixes as they are ready. Early access is not a promise that every setup is already supported.

01 / HELP

Report a problem

Reply to your Gumroad receipt or email support@forgemultimediagroup.com. Include your operating system, audio host and version, BarkerBox version, plug-in format, steps to reproduce, and what happened. Never send a private project or audio without choosing to share it.

02 / FIXES

Follow releases

Find version information and known issues in our release notes. Keep your Gumroad receipt for updated downloads. Buyer-email notifications are being prepared; no automatic in-plug-in update feed is active.

03 / COMMUNITY

Tell us what you made

Reply to your receipt with the voice you used and how your project came out. If you want a feature, review, clip, or quote shared publicly, say so explicitly; FORGE Multimedia Group LLC will ask for separate approval of the exact material before posting it.

Before you buy

The $19 purchase is for early-access software. Review the formats and beta limitations first. Change-of-mind refunds are not offered after files are delivered or accessed. Qualifying delivery failures, duplicate charges, material differences from the listing, or substantial failures on an advertised supported setup are reviewed manually when a reasonable fix or workaround is unavailable. Rights required by law and Gumroad or payment-provider decisions still apply. Read the full policy at checkout.

Privacy by default

BarkerBox does not report your project names, audio, mix exports, or usage to FORGE Multimedia Group LLC. We cannot determine whether a sound was used in a final mix. No background usage tracking is part of this beta.

QUICK ANSWERS

What should I do if BarkerBox does not work in my host?

First check the package and plug-in format for your system. If the issue persists, reply to your purchase receipt with the details above. We will investigate, offer a tested fix or workaround when possible, and review a refund request if the advertised product materially cannot be used in your stated setup.

Will I receive fixes during early access?

We intend to prioritize reproducible defects and publish tested replacements through the buyer download and release notes. Update scope and timing will be stated on the final product listing; no automatic in-plug-in update feed is active yet.

Can FORGE use my music or review in a post?

Only with your separate permission for the specific quote, clip, credit, and channels. A bug report or story submission alone is not permission to publish it.
