Asteroid

Asteroid is a DJ-Effects plugin similar to the Korg Kaoss Pad. You control a circle on an X/Y-pad that is linked to the various effects like Multi-filter, Slicer or a Phaser. It features five different algorithms that are optimized for live usage. The effects can be switched using the mouse or a MIDI-keyboard for live-use. Almost all parameters are fully automatable, including realtime click/pop-free effects switching. It is possible to freely route the circle's X and Y axis to various targets, such as Cutoff, Dry/Wet-Mix or Quantizing.

Features:

• 5 built-in effects like two filters, slicer, combfilter and a multistage phaser.
• 16-voice polyphonic filter for vocoder-like effects.
• Temposynced lofi-slicer with six operating modes.
• Combfilter with variable damping and inversed feedback option.
• Phaser with up to 32 stages.
• Separate echo/delay with spreading for each effect.
• Global pad-smoothing and variable quantization.
• Effects-release option for smooth fades.
• "kill"-button for immediate release/feedback reset.
