Oomingmak

Oomingmak is a pitch- and envelope-tracking (re)synthesis effect. It tracks the pitch and level of the incoming audio and uses them to:

  • Synthesize an entirely original sound, using classic analogue-style waveforms and subtractive synthesis.
  • Apply pitch modulation to the incoming audio, while syncing to the original waveform (the classic 'oscillator sync' effect, except that the 'oscillator' here is your audio).

The oscillator can also be synced to the incoming audio, and the tracked envelope can be used to modulate the pitch, filter cut-off and oscillator pulse-width. LFOs are also provided for further modulation possibilities.

Two ring modulators are also provided, allowing two different combinations of the above sounds to be modulated against each other.

As with all pitch-tracking devices, Oomingmak tends to work best on monophonic sound sources. It was designed particularly with the guitar in mind, in which case it tends to work well on solo lines rather than chords. However, sending chords, or even non-pitched sounds (e.g. drums) through Oomingmak can also have very interesting results.

Product: Augustus Loop
Developer: Expert Sleepers
Type: Delay / Echo
Price: $49
OS: WindowsMac OS XUniversal Binary
Formats: VSTAudio Unit
Augustus Loop is an emulation of a tape-based delay effect, with some extra features to facilitate its use as a looping device. The key features of Augustus Loop that make it more than just a big delay effect are: Really long maximum delay (3600 seconds - that's one hour). Tap length/tap record. You can set the loop delay time while recording your first phrase. Virtual tape. The delay simulates an old-style tape delay, meaning you can: Change the tape speed (i.e. pitch up and down) Reverse the tape direction Stop the tape Smoothly change the delay time (as if you were changing the head...

Product: Buffer Delay
Developer: Expert Sleepers
Type: Delay / Echo
Price: Free
OS: Mac OS XUniversal Binary
Formats: Audio Unit
Buffer Delay is a utility plug-in that delays audio by an exact number of sample frames, which can be useful when attempting to sync up audio accounting for delays through certain digital devices.... [more]

 
Product: Clocker
Developer: Expert Sleepers
Type: MIDI FX / Utility
Price: Free
OS: WindowsMac OS XUniversal Binary
Formats: VSTAudio Unit
Clocker is a utility plug-in that sends MIDI clock. Why would you want a plug-in to do that, when your host app sends MIDI clock perfectly fine? Well, with Clocker you have a separate, adjustable source of MIDI clock. So you can send all kinds of crazy tempo to some of your outboard gear, while the rest of your stuff plays back in time as usual.... [more]

 
Product: Crossfade Loop Synth
Developer: Expert Sleepers
Type: Sample Looper
Price: $49
OS: WindowsMac OS XUniversal Binary
Formats: VSTAudio Unit
Crossfade Loop Synth is actually two plug-ins: Crossfade Loop Synth and Crossfade Loop Synth Effect. The effect version takes the power of Crossfade Loop Synth and turns it into a live sampler, a looper and a very unusual and powerful delay effect. Crossfade Loop Synth Crossfade Loop Synth is, at heart, a simple sample playback synth plug-in. It plays samples in the classic sampler manner - by simply altering the playback speed according to the desired note. No fancy timestretching or pitchshifting is applied. You can control how the sample is looped as it is played. An adjustable amount of c... [more]

Product: Latency Fixer
Developer: Expert Sleepers
Type: Utility
Price: Free
OS: Mac OS XUniversal Binary
Formats: Audio Unit
Latency Fixer is a free AU plug-in that reports to the host application that it has a latency (controlled by the plug-in parameters) but does not actually apply any processing to the audio signal. This causes the host to use its own latency compensation to advance the audio fed into the plug-in by the requested amount.This is useful to compensate for e.g. routing audio via outboard effect processors, where the audio's journey out of your audio interface and back in to the computer introduces a latency into the signal. For example you may find it useful in conjunction with Logic's Helper->I/O p... [more]

 
Product: Little Spacey
Developer: Expert Sleepers
Type: Delay / Echo
Price: $29
OS: WindowsMac OS XUniversal Binary
Formats: VSTAudio Unit
Little Spacey is delay effect, inspired by classic analogue 'bucket brigade' delays but with refinements only possible in the digital arena - not to mention a maximum delay time that would cost a small fortune to realise in hardware. Great care has been taken to give Little Spacey the smooth, creamy sound which makes analogue delays still popular today. In common with the best analogue delays Little Spacey allows you to modulate the delay time for chorus or vibrato effects. Unlike most analogue delays, Little Spacey is not restricted to mono operation, and works well in stereo or multi-channel... [more]

 
Product: Merger
Developer: Expert Sleepers
Type: Utility
Price: Free
OS: Mac OS XUniversal Binary
Formats: Audio Unit
Merger is a free utility AU plug-in that combines two audio channels into one. This is typically useful for (e.g. vocoder) plug-ins that expect their two inputs on either side of a stereo pair.In Logic 7 it is used as an insert effect on a mono or stereo track. The other input is selected from the 'side chain' menu.NOTE: It doesn't work in Logic 6, presumably because of that host's Audio Unit implementation's limitations.... [more]

 
Product: Meringue
Developer: Expert Sleepers
Type: Delay / Echo
Price: $19
OS: WindowsMac OS XUniversal Binary
Formats: VSTAudio Unit
Meringue is a delay effect. Unlike most delays, the delay runs alternately forwards and backwards, rather than continually forwards. It has a filter/saturation section, which will be familiar to users of other Expert Sleepers plug-ins. The delay time and the filter LFO can be synced to the host application's tempo. The phase of the delay and the LFO can also be reset manually.... [more]

 
Product: Minky Starshine
Developer: Expert Sleepers
Type: Synth (Hybrid)
Price: $29
OS: WindowsMac OS XUniversal Binary
Formats: VSTAudio Unit
Minky Starshine is an additive/subtractive hybrid synth. A waveform is created by summing 16 independently controllable 'partials'. By setting the relative levels of the partials appropriately you can create familiar waveforms such as sawtooth and square wave, but you can also create an infinite range of timbres in between.As well as simply setting the levels of the partials, you can flexibly assign them to three 'groups'. Each group has a very flexible envelope generator and an LFO, so you can change the balance of the partials (and therefore the timbre of the sound) over time.The LFOs have a... [more]

NINJAM Plug-in is a plug-in client for NINJAM. NINJAM is a program to allow people to make music together via the Internet. Every participant can hear every other participant. Each user can also tweak their personal mix to his or her liking. NINJAM is cross-platform, with clients available for Mac OS X and Windows. There are various NINJAM client applications already in existence. Generally though these are designed around the assumption that you're just using the computer to send and receive audio, and that your instruments are just fed into your computer's audio interface. If however your ... [more]

Product: Silent Way
Developer: Expert Sleepers
Type: Utility
Price: $49
OS: WindowsMac OS XUniversal Binary
Formats: VSTAudio Unit
Silent Way is a suite of plug-ins designed for use as part of a modular analogue synthesiser system. The plug-ins produce no sound themselves, nor do they process sound - rather, they generate signals to be used as control voltages (CVs), which can be patched into the control inputs of oscillators, filters, VCAs, etc. of an analogue system. Also, with the addition of the CV Input plug-in, it is possible to bring CVs from the synth into the computer, for recording or processing. There are several plug-ins in the Silent Way suite - Silent Way DC, Silent Way LFO, Silent Way Trigger, Silent Way CV... [more]

 
Product: Warbler
Developer: Expert Sleepers
Type: Modulation (Flanger / Phaser / Chorus / Tremelo)
Price: $19
OS: WindowsMac OS XUniversal Binary
Formats: VSTAudio Unit
Warbler is at heart a vibrato effect, with additional controls that allow chorus/flange/delay type effects, as well as quite unusual hybrid sounds that aren't easily categorised. The vibrato depth ranges from subtle modulations to extreme pitch effects. The vibrato LFO (low frequency oscillator) can be set from 0Hz to 5kHz and is controlled by 3 knobs to allow accurate control over the whole range. The vibrato LFO shape can be selected from a variety of options and smoothly changed between them. The LFO speed and the vibrato depth can themselves be modulated by two extra LFOs. A 'bias' contr...
