FOUNDER
Andrew is an electrical engineer (BSEE, UC San Diego) and a rhythm guitarist who records, produces and mixes his own music at home. He started VirtualHouse Audio to build mixing tools for home studios that are fast to learn and honest about what every control does.
“Every VirtualHouse plug-in has to answer one question: does this help you finish a song?” (Andrew, founder and CEO)

NAME AND STYLE
- VirtualHouse Audio is written as one word with a capital V and H.
- Product names take the VirtualHouse prefix on first mention: VirtualHouse EQ, VirtualHouse DrumGate (one word).
- We write “plug-in” with a hyphen.
- TopCoat Free is a standalone app, not a plug-in.
- Please don’t recolor, stretch or redraw the logos. Use the cream logo on dark backgrounds and the ink logo on light ones.
