BitViewer allows you to check the bit depth of the incoming audio stream, so you can see how much headroom you still have for processing and if you really need dithering.... [more]
| Product: | Borderliner |
| Developer: | Tobybear |
| Type: | Synth (Unclassified) |
| Price: | Free |
| OS: |  |
| Formats: |  |
It's an attempt to break away from the normal synths available, providing you with a partly colour based interface.The colours represent moods. "Black and White" provide the basis. You can also mix the Black and White "tones" to obtain various forms of grey...which in turn can be colourized to provide different sounds.... and rather like a borderliner, a small change can have a large affect on the result...2 OscillatorsOSC1 Sine/Saw/Square/TriangleOSC2 Sine/Saw/Square/NoiseADSR amplitude EnvelopeResonant filter (LP/HP/S1/S2)Assignable LFO (5 waveforms)4 colour *fx*Fat modePhase invertGlideGUI ...

| Product: | Deconstructor |
| Developer: | Tobybear |
| Type: | Sample Manipulator |
| Price: | €50 |
| OS: | |
| Formats: | |
Deconstructor takes your input signal, splits it into 8 equal pieces and lets you then determine how these pieces should be arranged and processed. While the algorithm itself is pretty simple, a broad variety of "classic" effects can be reproduced in a very simple way, for example Pitchshifting, Autopanner, Tremolo, Delay, Simple Reverb, Simple Vocoder, and so on... But don't forget that its true power lies in the combination of different processing methods to produce new, strange and sometimes very exciting effects: mangle your drumloops into something completely different, transform voices i...

"This plugin implements a physical modelling algorithm for plucked strings that emulates, to a more or less successful extent, the sound of classic nylon guitars, but is further able by parameter tweaking to sound really spacey and create some "new" plucked string sounds."... [more]

Madshifta is a funky real-time pitch shifting module developed jointly by Tobybear and Bram from SmartElectronix. It allows you to pitch an incoming audio stream in realtime with MIDI notes or with the GUI controls.A delay/feedback unit and a resonant LP/HP filter are also included.... [more]

| Type: | Vowel Synth |
| Price: | Free |
| OS: | |
| Formats: | |
This is a simple VST plugin by Tobybear using the formant filter algorithm from Alex (alex @ smartelectronix).VowelSynth is a VSTi that reacts to MIDI input by generating a (non-bandlimited) waveform (saw, square or noise) of the appropriate frequency and then filters this waveform with Alex' formant filter. Simple envelope and glide control is also included. VowelFilter is the effect version of this plugin which processes the audio input with the formant filter. If you have a host that can send MIDI notes to effect plugins, you can also use the effect plugin just like the regular synth: as so... [more]
