Audio Damage has announced the release of Fluid, an analog-style chorus effect for VST and AudioUnits.

Fluid creates lush chorusing effects reminiscent of vintage hardware processors, with depth and richness rarely found in software chorus plug-ins. Fluid adds stereo width and animation to dull, motionless sounds, and at extreme settings creates unusual pitch modulations. Fluid's design was inspired by the internal workings of studio effects processors, including dedicated "magic box" analog chorus units and multi-effects DSP hardware. Most vintage chorus processors used only two or three modulated delays; Fluid uses an elaborate network of five modulated delays and four fixed delays.

Features:

• True stereo analog-modeled chorus effect.
• Feedback control for extreme special effects.
• Optimized for low CPU usage.
• Full MIDI learn on every parameter for hardware control (VST version only).

Fluid is available for Windows and Mac OS X (UB) in VST and AU formats priced at $29.
