112dB Jaws v1.0.3 WiN
Soft / VST Effects
20-06-2023
Jaws is what we coined a 'dynamic bitcrusher'. It has everything you would expect from a high-quality bitcrusher: bit reduction, sample rate reduction, a pre-amp, an input and output filter, and more. But it also features a host of modulation options. You can modulate the bit depth, the sample rate, as well as the mix. On top of that Jaws also has a resonant multi filter that you can modulate as well.
That means you can use Jaws in the usual way: to add a little of the charm of the samplers from the 80s by reducing the bit depth or the sample rate. An input and output filter, a vintage colored pre-amp and u-law noise reduction make it possible to approximate this old school sound more closely. Or use Jaws to destroy your sound completely if you are more into 'industrial'.
But what Jaws is really about is that you can use all those effects in a creative, fluid way. With the Envelope Follower you can add more crunch to the loud parts of your track (or the softer parts). The LFO makes it possible to create all kinds of weird oscillating effects. If you use this subtly you can add some 'jitter' to the sound. On extreme settings you can really go through the roof, and alter the sound beyond recognition.
Features:
the basics: bit reduction & sample rate reduction
a multimode filter that can be applied pre or post
all parts of the bitcrusher can be modulated: bit depth, sample rate, multi filter, mix
modulatable with LFO, Envelope Follower, or a mix of both
a simulated preamp that adds vintage coloration to the sound
an adjustable input and output filter to remove more or less aliasing according to your wishes, or to which device you want to simulate.
la modifiable bias, which enables you to slide between two different quantization methods
a dither function for adjustable noise masking
u-law algorithm (used in many 8-bit samplers for noise reduction, and still used in modern telecommunications)
'Knight Rider'-display for easy visual feedback on what's happening with the modulation

TAL-DAC is not an ordinary bit crusher or sample rate reducer. The plug-in is based on the TAL-Sampler sound engine. It emulates a sample recorded on a low sample rate with reduced bit depth and upsamples it to the desired host sample rate.
It's possible to choose different algorithms for the upsampling process to emulate the characteristics of different samplers. A low and high shelf EQ together with a AMP Drive in the reconstruction section allow it to approximate the sound character of different sampler AMP's. Also it is possible to emulate hot recorded signals using the input volume knob.
This plug-in can be used on a wide range of audio material, but it's especially useful and authentic on drum sounds.

SampleX brings you accurately modeled vintage sampler emulation. Dial-in the sample rate, bit rate, aliasing, input drive and filter settings to sound like any sampler, or design your own! Multiple sampler emulation presets already included.
In today’s advanced age of music tools that seek the "cleanest”, most "perfect” sounds, there has suddenly been a desire for the "Gritty” sounds of the machines of the past.
Once such quest has been the acquisition of old, primitive samplers and sample drum machines like the EMU SP1200, AKAI s900/950, and others. This has increased the rate of these machines to 10s of thousands of dollars.
PSPaudioware PSP 608 MultiDelay v1.7.2 WiN

6-01-2021
PSP 608 MD is perhaps the most fully featured delay plug-in available on the market (VST, AudioUnit, RTAS and AAX format for Mac OSX Universal Binary and VST, AAX and RTAS format for Windows). We have striven to offer you a creative tool that is not only functional, but inspiring. Each tap has selectable feedback, stereo image and position, delay time, multimode filter, modulation, drive/tape saturation, and reverb. Moreover, the feedback and drive can be placed at the beginning or end of the signal chain for even more sound design options! The modulation section consists of both an LFO and Envelope follower, and the tape saturation algorithm is taken from our renowned mastering processors. And of course all this can be done at any bit depth and sample rate up to 24-bit, 192kHz, and be fully automated via MIDI and any host sequencer.
