spectralsand

spectralsand2 is a spectral delay and filter plugin built around 2 central arrays and the concept of signal printing. Now, what exactly does that mean?

Essentially, spectralsand can break down the frequency spectrum into hundreds of tiny bits, changing the delay time and volume of each one. this allows it to completely change the timbre of whatever it's fed; but it gets better, because the delay and volume are organized in a graph that can be manipulated by a whole host of sources. You can use basic shapes, white noise, custom waveforms, and even a separate audio input. This unlocks strange new ways to make lasery noises, beautiful soundscapes, wet swampy sounds, and whatever else you can imagine.

Features:

• Delay tab: control how much the plugin delays each bin. this value can be offset between the left and right channels, making super wide delays.
• Filter tab: control the amount of volume each bin has. this allows you to create spectral filters, which can be edited with 3 modifiers (gate, expand, and floor).
• Feedback: feed the delays back into themselves creating strange, exponential echoes. (also comes equipped with a panic button so you don't burst your eardrums).
• Binsize: change how many pieces spectralsand breaks your input into (anywhere from 128-2048).
• Mix: blend the original input with the delayed output to find a perfect middle-ground.
• Sidechain mode (full version only): send spectralsand a sidechain input from another audio source (or maybe even from... itself?) to find unconventional combos of two sounds. (comes with a boost function to make the sidechain input more pronounced).
• Randomize (full version only): who doesn't love a good old-fashioned randomizer?
• Themes (full version only): spectralsand comes with the ability to load and make its' own themes in a matter of minutes. customize your copy of the plugin to fit your unique style. (also comes shipped with some of the best themes made by the spectralsand community).
