Izotope Trash 2 is out!

[V0RT3X]

Testing this out and it's serious fun. I am seriously in heaven with the ability to create your own distortions..

Why didn't anyone think of this before? I seen this similar waveshaping stuff in Z3TA so i guess it could have been done before.

I think Izotope made a winner here.

Played around with this and put together a track.

Nice examples Simon. This plugin is pure fun.

Cheers, it sure is, my ears were bleading a bit last night

Trash 1 only had 3 bands for multi-band distortion, but with trash 2 we have now 4 bands to mess with! It looks like you can actually really increase the amount of distortions per band.

Actually Trash 1 had four bands as well, it's just that it defaulted to three. It took me about six years before I realised you could add another band.

I'm pleased they've updated this plug-in. It was always one of the best and most versatile IMO. The compressor is surprisingly good for an 'additional feature' and I often used Trash1 as a de-esser or similar. I also always found the gate in Trash more useable than many dedicated software gates. And the distortion is great for everything dfrom subtle saturation to full-on mangling. Some really interesting algos in there too.

I'm hoping they've upped the bar on the audio quality though, a $99 upgrade price is fairly steep and you need a fair bit of bang for your buck for that. It had been so long since a Trash upgrade I was considering moving to FabFilter Saturn. Still, good to see IzoTope still behind the product even if it's a tad painful on the wallet.

the upGrade costs 99$. The other price is for non-owners of trash.

Hey guys, just a friendly heads-up and reminder, as always with iZotope stuff, it's slightly cheaper at AudioDeluxe, even during the intro pricing:

$134.99

...and... ordered!

Just played around with the demo a bit...

All of the modules seem to sound very good with one BIG exception!!

Even if the oversample switch is ON, the trash module... sounds like... trash! Very disappointing as I had high hopes for a new and good multi-band dist plug.

Trying to consider it as a good multi-band dynamics plug + EQ/filters + convolve and delay as a bonus.... but the sat/dist module sounds just heartbreaking IMO! sorry

You can still find some decent to good sounding sat/dist presets tho (but to be fair, those tend to sound good when tested with about all wave-shapers)

Trash is phenomenal, but in terms of creating your own waveshaping functions, here's an oldie from the excellent Bram of SmartElectronix: Cyanide

So how's the cpu hit compared to v1?

[Echoes in the Attic]

cpu is comparable to V1 usually, but sometimes it gets high. I think that's to do with the convolve module because without that on, it's usually around the same as V1.

I always lked Trash for the dynamics and filtering with the subtle distortions. I don't really like the more nasty distortions. I find that most of the presets are just plain nasty and I could never really use any of them. Even in the subtle category they all turn any signal to mush. But it's easy to make something amazing from scratch.

I love these guys....sweeeet trash

How would you compare the sound to other distortions / overdives? Is it fizzy, or does it have mid-range balls like a Marshall cab?

This is why I plan to demo it. I tend to be very particular about distortion. I like distortion that has lots of mid-range power and no fizz, which is to say so far I've only found one plug-in that sounds good for lead synth to my ears and it's a freebie.

I have Trash 1, and have spent hours and hours with it and cannot improve on ACMEBarGig Metal C-15. IMO Trash sounds VERY thin by comparison - no balls.

I'm a huge fan of Alloy and Ozone. Trash 2 looks very promising. Can't wait to try it.

How does the distortion/saturation sounds compare to Fabfilter Saturn?
