Unfiltered Audio LO-FI-AF
https://www.plugin-alliance.com/en/prod ... fi-af.html

Dirty up your sound with artifacts and degradation

The perfect plugin for when your other plugins sound too perfect

LO-FI-AF brings you on a journey through your favorite audio artifacts of the past few decades. Using impulse responses, spectral shaping, and other techniques, it conjures up the idiosyncrasies of everything from vinyl records and analog radios to MP3s, CDs, cassettes, cell phones and beyond.

Dirt, distortion and degradation from analog to digital

This versatile plugin does much more than other saturators and bit crushers. In addition to the tape saturation, vintage mics, and vinyl dust and pops, it recreates the sound of CD skipping, MP3 chirps, radio interference, and even the chatter made by a cell phone placed too close to a speaker.

Make custom signal chains with 4 unique modules

Each of LO-FI-AF's sections can be toggled and reorganized for a total of 24 different signal paths. Do you want to add some analog grunge before the MP3ification? Sure! Want to make it sound like it was recorded through a busted microphone, burned to a CD, and then scratched up? Why not?! Use it to add vibe and nostalgia to your tracks, or completely demolish source material into something practically unrecognizable.

Grungy on the ear, easy on the eye

LO-FI-AF features a stunning new graphical interface by Papernoise, the designer behind some of the most beautiful music software and hardware around. Its intuitive layout makes all the features visible and available at once without overwhelming the eye. There are 14 skins included, allowing you to find the perfect color combination for your setup and style.

Let's see the complaints about aliasing.

This and SILO are each at $29.99 with discounts + my monthly voucher, so I'm probably going to use it to pick up one of them by the end of the month. Gotta do some evaluating, though. I already know I love UA's multifx style, and TRIAD is a go-to tool for me these days.

Anyone have a strong opinion on SILO? Anyone really loving LO-FI-AF as a tool that you can't find the functionality of elsewhere?

How did you manage $25? I paid $30 plus VAT.

Agreed:
Silo is quite unique. A granular reverb and a weird spatializer.
LO-FI-AF is a low-ficator swiss-knife like Izotope Trash.
Both have the Unfiltered trademark...
Silo for me is ireplaceable.
LO-FI-AF sounds amazing and has some interesting twists on LO-FI
and I discover it these days...

but depends what you need - both have trial versions.
one can find if needs it by playing:)
I love Unfiltered fx and their philosophy a lot.

Instabuy. It was $79 for me but I haven't bought much from Plugin Alliance.

from what ive heard now its another thing than silo. but it sounds very good with lots of some degrading effects everyone experienced in his audio live once i guess^^. and a lot more effects i guess

75$ voucher on the 99,99$ offer (entering the specific code).

more than the sum of its parts. i consider this a fresh take on the idea of LoFi processes. the spectral stuff is a nice addition. lot's of room for subtle processing ore more wild sounding aggressive destruction.

and this is the month my vouchers are downgraded to $25 :ud:
