NyquistEq

NyquistEq is a free equalizer VST plugin developed by Smart Electronix. Compatible OS(s): Windows, macOS.

By Magnus @ Smart Electronix.

NyquistEq is a paragraphic equalizer that does not suffer from the treble warping that most digital equalizers do. Also it never clicks, and it handles deep bass well.

The reason it’s called NyquistEq is because it’s designed to be a filter that sounds good all the way up to the Nyquist frequency (if sampling rate is 44.1 kHz then nyquist is at 22.05 kHz).

NRR-1

NRR-1 is a free overdrive and saturation VST, VST3, Audio Unit plugin developed by Ignite Amps. Compatible OS(s): Windows 64b, macOS.

The NRR-1 core circuit is mainly based on a famous boutique preamplifier made in ’88, modded to suit Cristiano’s needs in the best possible way.

Features:

Ignite Amps 3rd generation triode modeling engine.

Three channels: clean, rhythm and lead, each with fully separated controls.

Mono / Stereo processing support.

Selectable oversampling rate (up to 8x).

Global input / output level controls.

Double precision (64-bit) floating point mathematical model.

Fully automatable controls.

Ignite Amps proprietary preset management system with bank file import/export functions.

NoizeDelay

NoizeDelay is a free delay VST plugin developed by Noizefield Instruments. Compatible OS(s): Windows.

NoizeDelay allows you to program four different delays at the same time. NoizeDelay is the creativity weapon for the delays in your music production and has been developed by CPS. Now you don’t need to stuck in a rut anymore. Be creative and use it for different effect purposes, like a dub-delay, an experimental modulation-delay, a ping-pong-delay, filter- or glitch-delay.

Noisebud Filter

Noisebud Filter is a free filter VST plugin developed by Noisebud. Compatible OS(s): Windows.

Noisebud Filter consists of 4 filters (or 16, depending on how you look upon it), they are switchable between Lo pass, hi pass, band pass and band reject filter.

The signals from the four filters are wired in a parallel chain. Every filter can be controlled by three different LFOs where one is tempo-synced; one normal and one extremely slow (a sLoFO).

The LFO sections also have something Noisebud call VariFO. It adds another movement to the LFO and makes it less predictable.

Every filter has an invert button so that you can silence frequencies that collide during heavy LFO movements, this and the VariFO is probably what make Noisebud filter special.

POWER – Power ON/OFF.

HQ – Oversampling ON / OFF. Use OFF to reduce CPU usage, use ON to get the quality sound without aliasing (more CPU). When a project or the track is exported to a wave file (mixdown, bounce, render, freeze) oversampling is always automatically enabled regardless of the position of the button.

GAIN – Determines the amount of gain applied by the Pre Amp.

LOW, MID, SWEEP, HIGH – Tone Stack controls.

POWER AMP – Determines the amount of gain applied by the Power Amp.

VOLUME – Output level.

русский

Español

Details: Delays I, II, and III each have a feedback slider, beats/frequency selector, choice of 4 filters (HP, BP, LP, and a 4 pole filter) with cutoff and resonance sliders, and a modulation on/off switch. Modulation (chorus/detune) has depth knob and beat division selector, as well as a stereo/mono button at the bottom. Delay II has an added distortion, with gain, blend (between two wave folding functions), HP/LP filters, and a level knob. Delay III has an LFO with depth and offset sliders (max depth is inversely proportional to the offset slider’s distance from the center), and can be routed to Delay III’s output, filter cutoff or resonance, or to the Dry signal. Dry and Wet sliders. Type in or detect tempo. Animate button for the border to respond to the output level.
