This is about the most basic effect out there. All this plugin does is a quick phase inversion (180 degree phase shift) on an incoming audio stream...

Sound Processor runs on Apple Macs that are equipped with a Digidesign audio card (Soundtools, Audiomedia, Protools, etc.). It processes sound in real time. Some available effects are: reverberation, resonator, delay, pitch shift, ring modulation and tremelo. Furthermore, spectral analysis and spectral recognition can also be performed in real time. Sound Processor is rather simple to use (standard Mac user interface) and reliable enough to use at live performances. Supports sample rates of up to 48 kHz, and is MIDI controllable...

Granulator is a real-time granular synthesizer. Available parameters include: density, duration, pitch, offset, waveform, filter cutoff and resonance, envelope attack and release, amplitude, pan, delay length and feedback. All parameters can be modified by sending user-definable MIDI control change messages...

The legendary Triangle I Monophonic Synthesizer, one of the most spread instruments around the virtual world.

Oriented to performance playing, features one of the best legato implementations of all synthesizers of any time. A must-have for all virtual instrument lovers.

Bassman was originally made as a bass sound generator, but its frequencies can vary from 20 - 20.000 Hz, so a whole spectrum of sounds can be arranged. 16 individual frequencies can be set, as well as the tone-duration (in milliseconds) and the wave-form (sine, triangle, square, sawtooth and noise). The generated sequence can be recorded and saved as a wave-file.

There is a large deviation in the quality of DirectX Audio plugins, some only process 16bit input, while some take 32bit input, and internally rework it to 16bit. AnalogX BitPolice displays the average utilization of all bits inside the data stream, plus BitPolice identifies the stream format (either 16bit or 32bit) that is being used. BitPolice does not effect the audio data in any way, it simply averages the bit utilization over the sampling time...

Pianographique is a multimedia instrument where each letter on the keyboard sets off a sound and an animation. By typing on the keyboard, pictures and sounds mix together. In this audiovisual collage all key combinations are possible. The work is composed and recomposed until the user arrives at his final flourish...

The pianos are placed in 3 categories: continuum, sound system and pianoparole...

With Sandbox you are able to modulate any source material using sine waves and FM synthesis, granular synthesis, full ADSR envelopes with graphic breakpoints, a built-in delay unit, and independent volume levels to insure the perfect mix. Plus, all work done in Sandbox can be saved to disk for further processing...

Ever wished you could make the computer say anything you want? Well, now you can, through the miracle of old code, and a little shoehorning, behold AnalogX SayIt! Inspired by the Speak&Spell, AnalogX SayIt can say any word (more or less) that you type into it. You have two options for the speech you enter : Preview or Render. There are several sliders, which you can move up and down, that do a variety of manipulations on the speech...

Slycer is a mac-only standalone application that can randomly alter the playback speed and length of audio files. Great for studio work and live performance, methods similar to granular synthesis are possible, as well as real-time pitch and time-stretching. Slycer's output can be saved to disk for further sonic manipulation. Slycer was made with Max/MSP...

This synth is a Theremin-like synth with the pitch and amplitude controlled by the mouse movements on the screen. The synth features 2 oscillators (with saw/square/sine waves, one of which is detunable), oscillator mix control, a resonant lowpass/highpass/bandpass filter and vibrato controls. Also allows the user to define the frequency range of the synth...

HotStepper is a sample-based pattern sequencer with a customizable sound library, pattern size and swing control, individually adjustable event volume and pitch and much more.

Since the development of the product has been discontinued, it is now freeware.

SuperCollider is an environment and Smalltalk-like programming language for real time audio synthesis. You can write programs to generate or process sound in real time or non real time. SuperCollider can be controlled by MIDI, the mouse, Wacom graphics tablet, and over a network via Open Sound Control...

The Soundpark is built from interactive elements sporting a retro style : Supervox provides an interface to mix a back drop of loops and drones : a switcher box controls speed and turns elements on/off : and a grid provides a vertical and horizontal sequencer tool to map out sounds and connections with some compositional input from the Soundpark...

Buffer-Innerloop-Scanner-Delay. Good for Stutter and pseudo Timestretch FX. Innerloop-Size and Move Parameters are depending on Host BPM Settings.

Small gadget to transform your sound (works in stereo).

'Big buffer' delay with reverse play. Parameters: bpm = beats per minute, div = division, mult = multiplication. All these 3 are used to set the delay time. The internal formula is : delay time in miliseconds = ((240000/bpm)/div)*mult, fdb = feedback, #b! = weird buffer-read-pointer freeze experiment, vol = volume, reverse = reverse play on / off, r. type = reverse type: norm = normal, alt = alternate between normal and reverse play. Two versions are available : with 5 seconds max. delay time or with 15 seconds max. delay time...

VCS-UltraPhazer is a multi-oscillated VST phaser plugin for Windows. It sounds very cool on guitar tracks and on raw saw sound. There are 14 sliders you can control, Resonance, Min Filter, Max Filter, LFO Freq, LFO Add 1-3, Filter 1-4, Num Filter, Stereo Phaz and Mix. Version 1.1 comes with simple soft clipping, no denormal behaviour, auto preset loader, bugfixes, P4 compatibility, faster LFOs...

Runs on Window 95/98/ME/NT/2000 : 4 audio tracks, 1 Audio Input (2 channels), 1 Audio Ouput (2 channels), 16/24 bits / 32-44.1 Khz sample rate, 2 Aux Buses, Quartz Plug-in Support, 4 Quartz Plug-ins supplied : Stereo Delay, Chorus, Phaser, Reverb. Per-track fixed frequency 3 band EQ, Mixdown to stereo file, Mpeg 3 Decoder, Juke Box, Video File Sync...

More feedback machine is a flexible VST plugin with 4 delay lines, 4 filters, 2 lfos, step sequencer and a tiny dynamics section. Download and testing is free with no limitation in functionality but for support and updates you will need to register... It has many knobs, including a big + dangerous PANIC button, and is dedicated to the advanced user and to people who want to have plenty of fun...
