SmoothSlew now with sidechain 2017-05-16T02:29:41+00:00 Introducing my newest plugin, I like to call it the "Wind Maker" This is currently BETA Windows x86/64 VST Stereo only No GUI, uses host default interface "Works best at 96khz" :) Sidechain Included, read on for details! Log in to download SmoothSlew SC.zip KVR download It's a slewrate limiter with 3 different modes of operation. What a slewrate limiter does, is it limits the change of voltage over time, which causes a chaotic kind of IMD. The 3 modes are in reference to the underlying transfer function generating the limiting, hard-knee, soft-knee, and a special soft-root which doesn't act the same as the other two. The ability to mix the effect with the dry signal allows the plugin to operate in either a compression or expansion mode, with 100% mix compressing and -100% mix expanding. A slewrate limiter is best described as a non-linear lowpass filter. How strong the "voltage" is determines how much cut there is. The plugin's Sensitivity control applies upward gain (drive type) to saturate the signal. As more gain is added, more high frequencies are slewed and reduced in amplitude. The sidechain allows direct audio rate control of the Sensitivity parameter. It will be engaged when the SC Mode control reads "External". While in this mode, the sidechain input signal is first rectified |x| then limited in amplitude to 1.0 ( 0dBFS ). Also while in this mode, the Sensitivity knob on the screen is non-functional. This is done to ensure the control remains within it's designed range, even with inputs over 1. Negative inputs are made positive, so an increasingly negative polarity signal becomes increasingly positive. It's worth experimenting with a plugin like FuncShaper or MUtility to run your custom maths on the sidechain signal, to exert control over the entire range. This is currently BETA, so please report any bugs, and feel free to make a request. Enjoy! camsr https://www.kvraudio.com/forum/memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=58183

Can you make a slew plugin version(or maybe a new options) that sounds more dramatic, like something like this?

IDK, but can you upload that in a non-lossy format like WAV?
