Witch Pig Neutraliser

Neutraliser is a Noise Gate/Expander plugin.

The default settings for Neutraliser should be about right for in front of a high gain style amp sim with overdrive. But for a real amp coming into the DAW via a load box, you might want to turn the threshold (bottom left) up to around 8. You can also experiment with with the Expander (bottom right) to slow down the noise gate closing on sustained notes, and to let more background noise through for a more natural sound.

Witch Pig SPX Nevermore

SPX Nevermore is Witch Pig's attempt at replicating the Symphonic preset from the 1990s Yamaha SPX 90 rack effects unit. As this was a budget 12 bit digital FX unit, and notoriously noisy, by default they have enabled the 'Noisy' and '12 Bit' switches.

Witch Pig found that this low bit rate, and background noise, needed to be fed into the signal before the stereo flanger effect, in order to emulate something close to the distinctively lofi sound of the original.

The SPX Symphonic preset was most famously used on bass for Nirvana's 'NEVERmind' album, and by Zakk Wylde for the guitar on Ozzy's 'No MORE Tears'.

BLEASS BLEASS Voices

BLEASS Voices is a flexible and powerful audio plugin dedicated to pitching, transforming, doubling and harmonizing vocals and other monophonic sources. With a total of 12 pitch shifted voices, each providing detailed control over pitch, formant, tone, width and placement, BLEASS Voices will redefine your vocal creativity and unleash your inner choir.

Four of BLEASS Voices' harmonized voices can be transposed independently by up to an octave higher or lower, or can be flattened to a chosen pitch. The remaining eight voices are triggered via MIDI, transposing the input signal to match the incoming MIDI notes. Coupled with BLEASS Voices' deep implementation of MPE, this lets you play vocal chords that ooze expressiveness and nuance, and vocal solos with realistic glides, trills and embellishments.

Alongside the extensive MPE support, BLEASS Voices also includes synth-style modulators that add new dimensions of movement and variation to your vocal performances. With two LFOs, an envelope follower and a pattern sequencer, BLEASS Voices is like a performance synth for vocals.

All voices have access to the plugin's intelligent pitch correction algorithm that forces the voices into a selected key and scale. Additionally, as well as feeding into the master output, each voice has its own independent output buss allowing you to mix and add effects to those voices as though they were standalone recordings*.

BLEASS Voices works with fundamental frequencies ranging from 66Hz (approximately C1**) to 5.2kHz (approximately E7**), making this the ideal plugin for tuning, doubling and harmonizing not only your vocal parts, but many other monophonic instrument parts too.

BLEASS Voices also offers a real-time mode for live performances, ensuring ultra-low latency.

* Accessing independent output busses requires a host DAW that supports multiple outputs from plugins.

** Where C3 = Middle C / MIDI Note #60

BLEASS BLEASS Phase Mutant

Developing Omega gave BLEASS the perfect opportunity to take a deep dive into the fascinating sonic capabilities of FM synthesis, and this sparked an innovative idea: A plugin that can apply the principles of frequency modulation to literally any source material.

The result is BLEASS Phase Mutant.

Where existing phase distortion plugins create their effect by using an audio input signal to modulate itself, BLEASS Phase Mutant takes things to an entirely new level with the addition of an oscillator that can modulate the input signal or be modulated by it. This allows BLEASS Phase Mutant to fully harness FM's ability to create complex and colourful harmonic distortions, achingly expressive tonal variations, and fascinating sonic hooks.

BLEASS Phase Mutant's oscillator tracks the input signal's pitch, and can be set to a factor of that input pitch. It can also produce a range of different waveforms, all of which can be spread across the stereo field by offsetting the phase of left and right channels.

In combination, these abilities open up a whole new universe of unique, modern-sounding effects that are perfect for vocals, basses, arpeggios and leads. You're going to love what BLEASS Phase Mutant can do to your drum and percussion parts too.

K-Devices TATAT

TATAT is a MIDI plugin designed for 3 main purposes: to create always-changing sequences, to quickly sketch and store music ideas, to add unexpected events to fixed patterns.

If you're looking for new ways of generating musical ideas, then look no further than TATAT. Set up your parameters, define a mood and listen to an endless flow of notes which you can then record, tweak, export and play along to.

YouTube.com/watch?v=11224JXwPWY

How TATAT works

TATAT generates an infinite and always changing sequences of notes.

You cannot say exactly what TATAT will do, but you can suggest a path to it: by setting up its parameters you can create what we call a mood for TATAT.

A mood is a configuration of notes, intervals, time fragmentation, velocity fluctuation, and other factors.

Once you set a mood that you are happy with, you'll listen to an infinite stream of events, always changing, all staying in the mood.

At this point, according to your needs, you can:

Let TATAT play its stream, and make some intervention to control it: to add silence (Less), to obtain smooth accelerando and ritardando (Ratio), to control how TATAT generates intervals. You can enable Key In function to change notes on the fly (with a keyboard, or just feeding TATAT with a MIDI clip). Add some stability by controlling/automating the Liv/Mem slider, moving between the generated stream and frozen patterns. Use TATAT to send its notes to enrich (by enabling Thru) existing/incoming MIDI data/parts. Export a nice mood as a series of MIDI files/clip: just click on the export icon and drag it in you session or where you prefer. For each time you'll drag it, TATAT will create a new variation of the mood. This is a great feature to create a set of coherent ideas/lines/riffs as a starting point for a new project.

Last but not least: TATAT gives you excellent results both with melodic/harmonic and percussive parts.

Imaginando GRFX – Granular Effects

GRFX – Granular Effects is a powerful new audio plugin designed to radically transform sound through the magic of granulation. GRFX takes granular processing to new creative heights—offering a flexible, expressive, and highly playable environment for sound design, experimentation, and exploration.

With GRFX, users can break down ordinary audio into micro-particles and rebuild it into evolving pads and drones, glitchy rhythms, ethereal textures, or alien soundscapes. Whether sparse or dense, shimmering or chaotic, GRFX is your sandbox for bending reality—layering, modulating, and shaping sound through time and space.

At the heart of GRFX is the Harmonic Triangle: an interactive, three-point control panel that morphs your sound into chords, arpeggios, and microtonal variations. This unique interface invites exploration and "happy accidents," especially when combined with the plugin's four cross-modulatable LFOs.

Modulation is made effortless with drag-and-drop routing, instant amount control, and a global Modulation Panel. A probability-based routing system lets users direct grains to the two multi-effect engines, the Mixer, and dedicated Delay and Reverb sends—each with independent routing for rich, layered sonic results.

Key Features:

Granular engine for real-time audio deconstruction and transformation. Harmonic Triangle for tonal and microtonal transposition. 4 LFOs with cross-modulation support. Drag-and-drop modulation. Probability-based grain routing. Two multi-effect engines. Dedicated Delay and Reverb sends. Input buffer freeze, slice and size controls.

Metric Halo MB MixHead

From Rick Carson:

For years and years I've been staring at photos of classic and modern sessions, always trying to learn what I can about my favorite producers, mixers, and engineers. I've probably spent hundreds of hours staring at photos, studying the racks and searching for unique pieces of gear. I eventually stumbled across a quote from Michael Brauer, about about a certain someone being 100% "in the box" except for a single piece of hardware, which led me to the discovery that I am proud to present to you. The MixHead.

There are few who wax nostalgic about the early days of digital recording, but in the transitional years of the late '90s and early '00s, when digital audio processing was still young, there were several hardware devices that crunched the ones and zeros themselves, saving the CPU for the complicated workloads required just to run the DAWs of the time. Some famous examples of these "digital in/digital out" devices include expensive equalizers and limiters that remain in use by professional engineers today. And, with modern computing power being vastly superior, many have been ported to plugins as well. The processor presented here was one of these devices, and it did something that at the time was quite unique: it aimed to add warmth and increased perceived loudness to digital recordings with the characteristic sound of analog tape saturation, but without the harshness associated with digital clipping.

This was done using a dedicated 1U rack unit with internal digital processing and AES inputs and outputs. This "plugin in a box" was designed to give digital recordings the glue that engineers felt they missed, without the hassle, wow and flutter, noise, and maintenance of actual tape machines or the sonic degradation associated in that era with yet another a/d-d/a conversion pass.

With the complex modeling available today and a market flooded with so many digital recreations, emulations, and mutations, looking back on the time of the original device provides an interesting retrospective: It was created with a very specific goal in mind, and this goal was achieved with a lot of theory (and assumptions) about what tape really did. Oddly, the results of all that effort created a processor that may well be even more effective and relevant now than it was in the years it was actually in production. Make Believe Studios MixHead captures the lightning in a bottle that this unique box offered. Knowing what we do now, and with myriad tape plugins at our disposal, some of the design approaches taken with the original unit may seem backwards or counter-intuitive today, but they are approaches that still work, and are quite fun to experiment with. We even added a few requested features like tenth of a decibel HF Adjust and a new 3.75ips lo-fi mode.

In practice, you may find that the 30ips setting sounds like it has more distortion than the 15ips setting. That's fine. You may hear some interesting phase interplay at in the higher frequencies that you wouldn't normally associate with tape. That's also fine. You will also find that the input and drive controls are highly interactive, and that the HF Adjust is great for adjusting the top end in a way that sounds natural. MixHead wasn't created to do what your other tape plugins do. It resurrects and modernizes an outboard hardware DSP box previously relegated to the dreaded digital graveyard.
