Hold the big button. Hear the drop.
Every plugin in the collection has the same big Engage button. Hold it and the effect happens, let go and the dry signal comes straight back, with a short crossfade so nothing clicks. Engage is an ordinary automatable parameter, so you can play it live or draw it in your DAW, and none of them need MIDI or any setup.
They all share the same faceplate layout, a stereo VU, two meters that show what the effect is doing, a Color knob that changes the whole panel to any hue, ten factory presets and the preset bar, so learning one means you already know the other four. Each one does a different job though. Loose Cannon wobbles a filter in time with your project, Repeat Offender stutters, reverses, gates and crushes the last slice of audio, Full Stop Shop is a tape stop that works in stereo, Half Time slows the music to a fraction of its speed and snaps it back on the beat, and Low Res is a bit and sample rate crusher.
All Five Plugins
You receive the complete versions of all five plugins, every knob, every switch, every preset. Nothing trimmed down for the bundle.
Bought separately, the five plugins are $19 each, $95 together. The whole collection is $49, and that's permanent.
Loose Cannon
A wobble filter locked to your project. A low frequency oscillator opens and closes a resonant filter in time with the host, so one held note becomes a wub, a half-time growl or a talking bass, and Spread sends the right channel's wobble behind the left.
Repeat Offender
Hold Engage and the last slice of your audio repeats. Pick Stutter, Reverse, Gate or Crush, set the slice length from a 1/4 note to a 1/32, and turn Chaos up when you want it to play itself.
Full Stop Shop
A tape stop and vinyl brake. Hold Engage and the pitch falls to a stop, let go and it spins back up. Spread makes the left and right channels stop at different moments, and Land On brings the music back exactly on a grid line.
Half Time
Hold Engage and the music slows to a fraction of its speed, half by default, and stays alive there. Let go and it speeds back up, landing on the next beat, half note or bar if you ask it to.
Low Res
A bit and sample rate crusher you hold. Bits and Rate sit next to big digital readouts, the aliasing is deliberate, and a Tone low-pass takes the harshest top end off after the crusher.
One payment. No subscription. No annual renewal. All five are yours.
