Pling3

Pling3 is a free rompler VST plugin developed by xoxos. Compatible OS(s): Windows.

Pling3 is an essential plucked string, completing xoxos’ ideal implementation by adding tuned allpass filters and coupled orthagonal waveguides (modeling horizontal and vertical string vibration) to the previous build.

The model is intended to suit many applications and is geared towards low CPU use. Simple Helmholtz resonators are added to emulate acoustic volume, intending supplementary processing to be used to amend emulations.

A second version, Pling3b, is included with an oversampled string.

Playtime

Playtime is a free rompler VST, VST3, Audio Unit plugin developed by Reflekt Audio. Compatible OS(s): Windows 64b, macOS.

The Playtime VST Plugin is a VST plugin instrument for Windows & Mac. Playtime was developed by myself Daniel of @ReflektAudio and I created this VST plugin out of toys. As shown in my instagram video I sampled a toy banjo, toy keyboard, some toy drums and a toy ukulele. I sampled these toy instruments with professional precision to bring you all a unique sounding plugin. Playtime is equipped with HQ multi blend-able microphones, essential on board effect parameters and a sick graphic user interface. The sounds within the Playtime VST plugin came from toys but the sound is very raw and unique to it’s own. The toy banjo and the toy ukulele both have 3 blend-able microphone layers. The toy piano and the toy drums have 6 different blend-able microphone layers. This allows us to blend the different microphones together creating one full sound:

Piano One

Piano One is a free rompler VST, Audio Unit plugin developed by Sound Magic. Compatible OS(s): Windows 64b, macOS.

The Sound of Piano One comes from the Yamaha C7 concert grand, a true workhorse in the professional piano world, appearing on famous concert stages, in international competitions and in prestigious music events throughout the world.

By utilizing the Sound Magic Hybrid Modeling Engine, Piano One offers both the Realistic Sound of Sampling and the Playability of Modeling. Hybrid Modeling provides an instantaneous feeling – no delay – and a truer and richer sound than can be created with either sampling or modeling alone.

Piano One is also designed to be extendable or upgradable in future. If the user is a serious musician, he/she need to consider better sounds and features. Sound Magic also provides this opportunity. When they feel the sound is not enough for them to use, then they can choose other pianos inside Piano One. What’s more, there are instructions inside Piano One to help its users to choose.

Features:

Sound Magic Hybrid Modeling Technology.

Built-in professional Reverb Engine simulates resonances with environment and soundboard, adding extra realism to the sound.

Faster load times. Smaller hard drive footprint, less memory and less CPU usage.
