spectralsand2 (plugdata)

ATTENTION: spectralsand requires your daw to run in rosetta to work on a mac m1. don't buy this plugin unless you have it.


description

essentially, spectralsand can break down the frequency spectrum into hundreds of tiny bits and delay each one by a certain amount of time. this...

eel (live11)

eel (the rack)

description

this rack is a weirdo answer to those really popular "growl" racks. it uses unconventional methods to achieve a growly sound, with a little extra glitch thrown in. all the results sound slippery as an eel! i highly recommend automating these (minus maybe "ott amount" and "doom comp").


main features:

growl/res/formant: these control the timbre of "growl" the rack creates.

magnesis (m4l)

magnesis (the device)

description

cross-synthesizers are spectral effects that take the amplitudes of one signal and combine them with the frequencies of another. they're like really sexy vocoders, but they're usually rare, hard to use, and EXPENSIVE. so i made magnesis!

"magnesis" is a cross-synthesis effect with an insane amount of potential, while still remaining pretty simple. you can mix any two sounds together using it's 4 main sliders, and hone in...
