MechanODD

by fx-mechanics
https://www.kvraudio.com/product/mechan ... -mechanics

MechanOdd is a polyphonic physical-modelling synthesizer plugin (VST3/AU) built with JUCE. It synthesizes sound by exciting simulated mechanical resonators (strings, plates, membranes, and beams) and routing the results through a feedback matrix, effects chains, and a modulation engine.

Just saw it, but it looked so boring that I overlooked this tool

. Now Benn (aka Flash

bulb) played around with it and—holy damn cow… try it!!

I posted about OrbitCab in the 3 OS thread when it was still just a cab loader. It's now a full amp stack, with configurable pre and power amps that you can populate with NAM captures. The latest update added a spring reverb IR to the preamp section.

Very nice! Does it support NAM A2?

It reads A2 but I'm not sure if it supports all the features of A2. There's no control for the quality setting for example.

Hi everyone!
I'd also like to mention a couple of my Linux-compatible plugins.

ByteBeat Boutique is a virtual instrument based on Bytebeat: small mathematical formulas that generate melodies, rhythms and other algorithmic sounds. It includes native Linux VST3 and Standalone versions.

https://www.autodafe.net/bytebeat-boutique.html

I also have a small collection of free/donationware audio effects, all available for Linux VST3 as well.

https://www.autodafe.net/fx-plugins.html

Every plugin has been tested in Bitwig and Reaper under Ubuntu 22

Hope some of you find them useful. Feedback is always welcome!

I think that moniker is just for legal reasons. It's rock solid.
