Vascillator (Betabugs) is a free multi fx VST plugin developed by Computer Music. Compatible OS(s): Windows.

    1. Free running up to 4 seconds, with tapper for setting live tempos.
    2. Sync to host from 1demisemihemidemisemiquavertriplet (1/128 triplet) up to a breve (2/1 Note).
  • Resonant 24dB/Oct filter, operable in LoPass, BandPass or HiPass mode.
  • Envelope Follower for modulating the filter cutoff, with adjustable sensitivity and slope controls. Choice of 4 modes, depending on how the filter should be modulated in relation to a defined frequency.
  • A Stereo Width control and PingPong facility.
  • Each module can be deployed once in almost any order in a semi-fixed signal path allowing for smooth pads, choppy stutters, piercing combs or stupidly long repeats [try a synced breve in a 60bpm track…].

Vanilla Compressor

ZynAddSubFX free software-synthesizer by paulnasca 2

Vanilla Compressor is a free compressor VST plugin developed by ChunkWare. Compatible OS(s): Windows.

The Vanilla Compressor is a general-purpose, stereo compressor plugin, with optional sidechain input. It can be used on individual instruments, across aux busses, or even as a mastering effect. Its fine-tuned, “smooth as buttah” sidechain and specialized release shapes make it equally at home with vocals, drums, guitars and full mixes. Use it sparingly for subtle, transparent “tightening”; or drive it hard and fast for deep, “balls-to-the-walls” pumping.

The Vanilla Compressor is currently in the alpha stage, and is free to download and evaluate. After development is completed, the final release will be available for purchase for US$50.

Features:

  • Threshold: -40dB to 0dB in 0.1dB increments.
  • Ratio: 1:1 (no compression) to 20:1 (limiting).
  • Soft-knee: 0dB (linear/”hard knee”) to 12dB (nonlinear/”soft knee”) in 0.5dB steps.
  • Max Make-up: Maximizes the output gain to 0dB, such that it is proportional to the threshold and ratio parameters.
  • Compressor Output: -40dB to +40dB in 0.1dB increments.
  • Attack.
  • Release.
  • Release Shape: Smooth, Pump, ARC-1 & ARC-2 (Auto Release Control).
  • Key Input (for sidechain).
  • Detection: Peak and RMS.
  • SideChain Filter: Let the compressor react to certain frequencies, while ignoring others. Off, Low, High and Band settings.
  • Frequency: Cutoff frequency for the sidechain filter (60Hz to 6kHz).
  • Listen: Listen to the sidechain (control) signal at the output of the filter, before it is rectified/averaged.
  • Mix: Wet/Dry mix.
  • Output: -40dB to +40dB in 0.1dB increments.
  • Limiter.

The Vanilla Compressor uses RMS power summing for stereo linking, to maintain an accurate image of stereo signals.

V.I Stereo to 5.1 Converter Suite

V.I Stereo to 5.1 Converter Suite free stereo-imaging by Steve Thomson

V.I Stereo to 5.1 Converter Suite is a free stereo imaging VST plugin developed by Steve Thomson. Compatible OS(s): Windows.

V.I Stereo to 5.1 Converter Suite converts a stereo input to a 5.1 output by extracting ambience information embedded in the stereo audio and redistributing it among 5.1 channels.

For VST hosts that do not support a 2-input/6-output VST plugin, the V.I Suite also includes three companion 2-in/2-out plugins: fLfR, CLFE, and sLsR. These duplicate V.I’s effects in three channel pairs, which can later be combined to form a 6-channel file for encoding.

Features

  • Width correction helps compensate for source files that were mixed too narrow or too wide.
  • Independent controls for adding ambience to the front or rear sound-stage.
  • Movie Mode switch redirects some dialog frequencies from front left and right channels to the center channel to enhance dialog while still maintaining a good stereo sound-stage.
  • Pass-through of original left and right signals ensures accurate reproduction of original stereo imaging (when not in Movie Mode).
  • On/off control for A-B monitoring of effect.
  • Switchable LFE channel.
