Saltline has announced the release of a beta version of Bachelard, a new free VST effect plug-in for Windows.

Bachelard features a delay module with a filter section and a reverb module with a second filter section. Many parameters can be controlled with key tracking. The effect also features 3 LFOs and a modulation matrix. The 3 LFOs have 5 different waveforms to choose from and 3 different ways to control the oscillator speed. They also have a trigger function controlled by MIDI note commands. Parameters that feature key tracking can also be assigned to different MIDI channels for extra flexibility.

Features:

• Delay featuring, free, sync to host and key tracking (KTr) controlled rate.
• Delay feedback also features a KTr switch.
• Reverb parameters, size, width, damp and mix.
• Reverb size and mix controls also have KTr switches.
• Both effects have identical filters, 2 self oscillating SVs.
• The cutoff on the filters can also be set to KTr.
• 3 identical LFOs with free, sync to host and KTr rate control.
• Each LFO can be assigned in the modulation matrix to several destinations: delay rate, feedback, cutoff and resonance, reverb size, width, damp, mix, cutoff and resonance.
