200 EFFECTS AND PLUG-INS IN AN OVERVIEW
Parameters
- Decay: Reverberation length
- Damp: Damping of highs to simulate absorption via air, wall materials, and objects
- Mod: Modulation strength
Lo-fi
This algorithm gives the sound a little bit of "grit", or a certain measure of signal destruction
depending on its setting. An ideal partner for creative sound design. The simulation of early
digital synthesizes or samplers is equally possible, since their AD/DA converters were
anything but "true" in the character of their sound. The sample rate from the output of the
lo-fi effect can be continuously reduced and a generous measure of "aliasing" distortion
may be produced alongside the unavoidable loss of highs resulting from "down sampling".
Bit resolution is clearly changeable, too.
Parameters
·Rate: Sample rate
·Crush: Number of bits
-Low-pass: Low-pass filter at the output to smooth out induced noise
Distortion
This overdrive effect works similarly to common guitarist effect pedals. Everything is
possible, from light, bluesy signal saturation to hard "metal shred boards". In this case, a
dual-band EQ works on the in and output signals and to provide a rich palette of sounds.
Parameters
- Drive: Controls the internal level and the overdrive
- Low: Bass portion
- High: High portion
Analog filter 12/24 dB
An additional filter may be applied across the entire drum sound.
Parameters
·Cutoff/resonance: Filter frequency and resonance
·Type: Filter type
-Drive: Filter saturation
Vintage compressor
A compressor with a special "analog" controlling behavior for more pumping bass drums.
