miniBit is a chiptune synthesizer plugin from AudioThing, built to recreate the sound of classic 8-bit game consoles and vintage home computers. It delivers the characteristic palette of that era — square, pulse, triangle, and noise waveforms, bit-crushed textures, and the distinctive arpeggiated and pitch-shifted character associated with chip music — inside a modern, playable plugin with a resizable interface.

Despite its small footprint, miniBit offers a focused but complete synthesis path, making it useful for chiptune production, retro-styled game audio, and 8-bit textures in modern electronic music. Producers use it for leads, basses, arpeggios, and percussive blips where authenticity to the console sound matters more than breadth. It runs as a plugin on macOS and Windows in VST, VST3, AU, and AAX formats, is 64-bit only, and is compatible with major DAWs including Ableton Live, Logic Pro, FL Studio, Cubase, Studio One, and Reaper. AudioThing also offers a free demo version for evaluation.
