F8-V2

F8-V2 free multi-fx | filter | ring-modulator | reverb | gate | lfo | echo | pitch-shifter by Music Unfolding

F8-V2 is a free multi fx and filter and ring modulator and reverb and gate and lfo and echo and pitch shifter Audio Unit plugin developed by Music Unfolding. Compatible OS(s): macOS.

The Collective 8 Audio Unit Bundle consists of three Audio Units: F8-V2, Mod8 and Res8. All three share a similar amplitude modulation sequence configuration. The audio stream is copied into 8 identical streams and an amplitude modulation pattern can be applied to each stream. The amplitude modulation patterns can be drawn to any shape, with an-easy-to use editing environment that automatically appears when hovering over the patterns with a mouse. Each stream also has filters or effects applied to it individually. The streams are then mixed back together.

The plug-ins:

  • F8-V2 has LFOs, which are applied to highpass, bandpass or lowpass filters.
  • Res8 has a choice of a driven, nonlinear, multi-stage filter or formant filters that can be independently applied to each audio stream.
  • Mod8 has a range of modulation effects like vibrato and ring modulation. It also has echo, reverb, sub-octave, and pitch shifting.

The result is up to 8 different effects running all at the same time, each with its own settings and amplitude sequences. This layering gives unlimited options to create incredibly interesting effects, from intricate and wild effects, to rich, textured reverb, echo, chorus-type effects. The Collective 8 Audio Units come with hundreds of presets. Amplitude modulation patterns can be copied and pasted within each AU or between them.

EyesWeb Open Platform

ZynAddSubFX free software-synthesizer by paulnasca 2

EyesWeb Open Platform is a free development tool plugin developed by InfoMus Lab. Compatible OS(s): Windows 64b.

The EyesWeb open platform was originally conceived for supporting research on multi-modal expressive interfaces and multimedia interactive systems. EyesWeb has also been widely employed for designing and developing real-time dance, music, and multimedia applications.

It supports the user in experimenting computational models of non-verbal expressive communication and in mapping gestures from different modalities (e.g., human full-body movement, music) onto multimedia output (e.g., sound, music, visual media). It allows fast development and experiment cycles of interactive performance set-ups by including a visual programming language allowing mapping, at different levels, of movement and audio into integrated music, visual, and mobile scenery.

EyesWeb has been designed with a special focus on the analysis and processing of expressive gesture in movement, MIDI, audio, and music signals.

EyesWeb consists of a number of integrated hardware and software modules which can be easily interconnected and extended. The EyesWeb software includes a development environment and a set of libraries of reusable software components (blocks) which can be assembled by the user in a visual language to build patches as in common computer music languages inspired to analog synthesizers. A patch can be used as a module in a higher-level patch.

EyesWeb includes a software Wizard enabling users to extend the system with new modules, data types, and libraries.

The software runs on Windows and is based on the Microsoft COM/DCOM standard. It supports Steinberg VST and ASIO, OSC (Open SoundControl), and FreeFrame plugins.

Automation support is provided. This let developers invoke EyesWeb from other languages, such as Microsoft Visual Basic. The execution of a patch can be controlled from external applications. Any scripting language that supports automation can be used for this purpose (e.g., Python, VBScript, JavaScript, etc.).

Modules include passive modules (e.g., filters) and active modules, e.g., sources and modules with an internal dynamics (i.e., modules which receive inputs as any other module but may send outputs asynchronously with respect to their inputs).

EyesWeb libraries include:

  • Input: support for frame grabbers (from webcams to professional videocameras), wireless on-body sensors (e.g., accelerometers), audio and MIDI input, serial, network, keyboard, mouse.
  • Math and filters (e.g., operations with scalars and matrices).
  • Imaging (processing and conversions of images).
  • Sound and MIDI Libraries.
  • Communication (e.g., MIDI, OSC, TCP/IP, serial, DCOM).
  • Motion Analysis: motion trackers (e.g., feature tracking, tracking of multiple colored blobs), modules for extraction of global features from movement (e.g. amount of detected motion), analysis of the use of the space.
  • Mapping of extracted features in real-time generation of audio and visual outputs.
  • Output: visual, audio, MIDI, serial, network.

Extremist

Extremist free multi-fx | delay | echo by Piotr 'Habib' Pyrzanowski

Extremist is a free multi fx and delay and echo VST plugin developed by Piotr Habib Pyrzanowski. Compatible OS(s): Windows.

Extremist is a multi-effect plug-in designed for use with guitars – its main purpose is for distorting a guitar signal to create an “extremely heavy sound”. This effect is not a tube amplifier simulator, however some methods of altering the signal are similar to tube amplification characteristics.

Extremist works in stereo, without any latency, and includes a 15-band stereo equalizer. It uses SSE instructions for Pentium II or newer CPUs.

Controls:

  • Drive, Dry, Wet, Volume: knobs for regulating amplification & mixing signals.
  • Feedback: level of feedback signal.
  • Clip: clipping level.
  • Reverb: stereo reverb effect, adjustable up to delay.
  • Mod Boost: mid-tones amplification.
  • Eq Q: width of each frequency band amplification of equalizer.
  • Pre HPF: filtering low frequencies of effect input.
  • Post LPF: filtering of high frequencies of effect output.
  • Noise gate.
  • Amp curve: amplification characteristic.
  • Lock bars: steering of equalizer in mono/stereo.
  • Post gating: noise gate applied before/after effect.
  • Smoothing: signal smoothing (hiss reduction).

Explor3r

Explor3r free software-synthesizer by The Lower Rhythm

Explor3r is a free software synthesizer developed by The Lower Rhythm. Available format(s): VST for Windows.

Designed specifically for the KVR Developer Challenge 2009, Explor3r is a three oscillator monosynth with channel-dedicated amplitude envelopes, lowpass filters and LFOs, all glued together with a matrix that allows both phase modulation and sync inputs on each oscillator to be fed by the output of any other oscillator (including itself). With the addition of global texturizing (tube saturation and noise w/high cut) and delay, Explor3r can create anything from fat, complex leads to droning sound effects and terrible, screeching chaos.

Explor3r features 3 oscillators with dedicated envelopes, tuning, filters and LFOs, 3×3 modulation and sync matrix, tube output & noise mix for texture and global delay.

explodelay

explodelay free delay by xoxos

explodelay is a free delay VST plugin developed by xoxos. Compatible OS(s): Windows.

Explodelay uses a fourier spectral transform in a delay loop to explode signals into bursts of noise. Separate control is provided over signal propogation across the spectrum and randomising phase to produce a variety of effects from distortion to temporal aliasing, subtle harmonic ripples in comb filter applications, controlled unidirectional shifts with filtering, and constant feedback reimaging.

Of course, exploding signals into bursts of noise effectively describes classic delay technology.
