Gaard
/ɡɑːrd/ noun
Sounds like guard in English. In Danish it is gård [ˈɡ̊ɒˀ]: farm.
Gaard is the last part of my surname, Nørgaard: northern farm.
Gaard Audio is run like a small farm. Nothing leaves the workshop until it feels right under my own fingers. The details get the time they need, and you deal directly with the person behind the plugins.
As a long-time software developer and musician, combining the two felt natural: I started building my own plugins, tailored to do exactly what I needed. Now I'm ready to share them with you. My first plugin, VariBlend, started with a simple wish: I wanted my effects to follow my playing instead of my feet. Every plugin from Gaard Audio is designed to react to the musician first.

Every message is read by the person who makes the plugins.
