"ambiFX" plugin now available + updates to other plugins

ambiFX is the FX portion of ambiVAC (not released yet), including a weirdo 3-pole phaser vowel filter, drive, comically exaggerated tape delay, reverb, and extremely scary regeneration feedback between the delay and verb.

sample pack: wood & metal

took a variety of drumsticks out on some trail walks. all 96khz/24bit but quality varies because of the amount of noise pollution i couldn't get away from some days. download is available @ https://heckscaper.com/resources/

"ill.logic" plugin now available for patrons (64bit VST3 + mac AU)

ill.logic is a math synth in which two oscillators are AND/OR/XOR'd against each other. it's extremely noisy. the documentation for it is not done yet. but you can play with it in advance. this is one that benefits from being played with rather than reading exactly what everything does. if you have a cursory knowledge of anything synth-related you'll know what the basics do, and the rest can be figured out by messing around.

sorry that the plugin folders are a bit messy...

let's kick around ideas for physical releases

hello trees! this one's for you specifically.

since i'm planning to move away from vinyl, i'd like to start doing more frequent CD/tape prints (as ecologically soundly as possible - so using recycled cardboard digipaks, egg carton CD hubs, etc, like halcyondaze/pure staircase) and would like to know if there's something you'd be interested in seeing a new print of in these new formats. i have a couple collection ideas kicking around (such as a game soundtrack collection ie. shark attack...

on vinyl

i had planned to do a bunch of vinyl this year, but thinking it over, i'm not so sure. not out of preference, but out of thinking on vinyl itself and what it is and what it does.

vinyl is immensely troubling ecologically at this point and i'm not sure how comfortable i feel continuing to add to that. i may do "one last record" as a send-off or something - "MORE ADVENTURES" is just becoming increasingly vinyl-unfriendly, too. maybe vinyl isn't the answer for it anyways.

yet another "current project updates"

hey all, thought i'd drop another update in since no actual Stuff has appeared and it's all been happening behind the scenes as of late

MORE ADVENTURES is taking quite a bit longer than i thought to put together - i'm a bit of an impasse regarding it right now and don't want to push work on it too hard for fear of burning out on it, so i'm taking it as it comes as to make it the best it can be. as a result of that,

the plugins i've been working on will probably be released, at lea...

current project updates

hey all, just thought i'd fill you in on where things are at with things i'm currently working on - those being an album, 5 plugins, and 3 sample packs.

MORE ADVENTURES is, if i had to put a number on it, about 40% complete. 4 tracks are mostly put together and visual concepts have been developed.

plugins are about 90% complete but will be available after MORE ADVENTURES is released.

sample packs are harder to put a number o...

resources for most of "FRAMEDRAG"

available @ https://heckscaper.com/resources/ as always

if it's not in the pack it's because the track was flattened early on at  some point or i can't just redistribute stock sfx i licensed or  whatever. in some cases the resources may not be exact as i had to recreate/adjust some based on plugins i have installed now vs ones i had installed at that point.

"absolute artifact" reprint update

hey all, had my dental assessment today. having some work done wednesday, then some more done when it's affordable (not far off, hopefully!) - several cavities to take care of before they get too advanced.

i'm planning to put up the absolute artifact reprint this saturday some time. i'll have an exact time of day as we draw near, but i'm going to shoot for mid-afternoon (eastern time), maybe a little after that. not entirely set on how many copies i want to make available yet (not leavi...

vst/plugin update

i have procured mac-compatible versions of the modules i am using and can export 64bit AUs. whether or not i will be able to offer tech support for them is another question entirely, as i know nothing about mac shit and am not about to know anything about mac shit.

please look forward to it.

a free new VST for you: stinkbug

note - this isn't the VST from the last post! i have somehow assembled four VSTs since then, and this is one of them - it's a weirdo for sure.

meet stinkbug! stinkbug is an experimental frequency and phase modulation synthesizer in 64bit vst2 format (i cannot support anything else due to synthedit limitations, period, full stop, no questions asked). it's primarily for sound design, but can be musical if you want.

it's three operators - a carrier u...
