faderratic

faderratic free lfo | glitch by de la Mancha

faderratic is a free lfo and glitch VST plugin developed by de la Mancha. Compatible OS(s): Windows.

faderratic brings you cross-fading of 2 stereo inputs, but with a mind of its own and a ton of options to change the fade shape, length, limits, frequency and probability. faderratic works by generating a pulse on a tempo-sync frequency and, depending on the probability, it may trigger a cross-fade event. You can optionally make the fader auto-return to either side and, if you feel like it, trigger a fade manually or control the fader movement totally manually.

NOTE: faderratic is a multi-input effect plugin with 2 stereo inputs. You need a host that allows multi-input effects, such as energyXT, for the cross fading to work. If your host does not allow multi-input effects, you can still use faderratic as a gate, as it will cross-fade 1 stereo input with silence.

Features:

  • Probability based auto-cross-fader.
  • Cross-fade is triggered based on user defined frequency and probability.
  • Cross-fade duration in ms.
  • 13 different envelope shapes for the cross-fade.
  • Trigger alternate fades or auto-return to either input pair.
  • Partial fades by scaling the throw and fader limits.
  • 4 fade laws.
  • Manual trigger.
  • Option to manually control cross-fader.
  • All controls assigned to MIDI CCs.

Face Bender

Face Bender free fuzz | overdrive by Distorque

Face Bender is a free fuzz and overdrive VST plugin developed by Distorque. Compatible OS(s): Windows.

Face Bender is a VST emulation of a Fuzz Face and a Tonebender MKII. It has added controls for tweaking or for crafting your own fuzz tone.

The Fuzz Face was first made by Arbiter Electronics in 1966. It had a thick, fuzzy distortion and was made famous by artists like Jimi Hendrix, Eric Clapton, and David Gilmour. The Tone Bender MKII was also released in 1966, by Sola Sound. Compared to the Fuzz Face, it has a brighter, more distorted sound. As of v1.1, the Face Bender also emulates the silicon Fuzz Face of 1969.

Features:

  • Switchable 2x oversampling.
  • 32-bit and 64-bit versions.
  • Stereo and Mono operation.
  • Accurate emulation of the Arbiter Fuzz Face and the Sola Sound Tonebender MKII.
  • Tweak controls: Input Level, Input Filter, Gate, Clean Blend, Lo Cut, Hi Cut, Material.

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.

F1 FilterBox

F1 FilterBox free filter by RAZ Audio

F1 FilterBox is a free filter VST plugin developed by RAZ Audio. Compatible OS(s): Windows.

The F1 FilterBox is an easy controlled multi-mode filter.

It offers an intuitive GUI, different filter and slope types as well as various modulation possibilities. It is an easy tool for precision sculpturing of the audio source.

* LPF [12 and 24 Db/Octave]
* HPF [12 and 24 Db/Octave]
* BPF [12 and 24 Db/Octave]
…and various methods to modulate the cut-off point:
* LFO (time based, [ms])
* Sync_LFO – temp based, synchronized to DAW’s BPM setting
* Envelope follower
As well as a master modulation depth setting, which can be run to negative values as well as positive.
All these modulation setting can be run in parallel and offer you a very quick and easy to use tool, which sounds just great.

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).

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.
