About

Background

Cytomic was formed in December 2007 as a company dedicated to producing DSP plugins using analog modeling based on quality algorithms, with a focus on ease of use and reasonable pricing. Cytomic software is currently in use by top musicians and has already featured on multiple number one singles on Beatport.

Cytomic is very much a boutique and family run business, with the husband and wife team of Andrew and Emma Simper as the backbone, and help from various close knit and talented contractors from time to time.
