One knob turns any sound into a tempo-synced ghost gate.
Ghostix Raw is the free, one-knob version of Ghostix Pro. It runs an always-on, tempo-synced rhythmic auto-gate (the trance / tech-house ghost gate), driven by a single macro. It is a plain audio insert, no MIDI needed; drop it on a track, set your DAW tempo, and turn the knob.

Ghostix Raw is a single-knob rhythmic gate. Drop it on a pad, chord stab, bassline, or full bus, set the tempo in your DAW, and turn one knob:
- HAUNT: the one macro. At zero it is clean and out of the way. Turn it up and the sound starts breathing in a tight 1/8-note gate that gets deeper and choppier the further you push. The response is front-loaded, so the start of the sweep is a gentle pulse and the top end is a hard trance gate. Output is level-matched, so it never jumps in volume as you push it.
The gate free-runs from your host tempo (falling back to 120 BPM if the host reports none). No note input required. It is a pure audio effect that ignores MIDI.
