One knob runs a whole FX rack. Turn it up and your sound gets bigger.
Chainix Raw is the free, one-knob version of the multi-FX plugin Chainix. The single CHAIN macro drives a fixed, level-matched rack, saturation, glue compression, stereo width, delay, and reverb space, all scaled together so it just gets bigger, never a volume jump.

Turn the one CHAIN knob. It runs your signal through a fixed, always-on rack, warm saturation, glue compression, stereo chorus width, a slap delay, and reverb space, all scaled together and level-matched, front-loaded so the first quarter of the knob is just a taste. At zero it's a clean bypass; open it up and the sound gets bigger and thicker. Works on drums, synths, vocals, and full mixes. Zero added latency.
