since i was probably the main beta tester of this plugin, i might be a bit biased :D but this is literally the best plugin of all time if you wanna explore any instrument or effect for preset generation with controlled randomization.

it's a nice little short cut to some prominent granular synthesis usecases. i add another sentence to this review to reach the word count.

my favourite visualizer plugin! it has a lot of customizability options for each of its visualization types.

great concept, but i had a few issues with it forgetting some of its state. i also could imagine it would be cool if the tune parameters had a wider range.

It is impossible to dislike this plugin. It gives you so many pleasant moments of surprise. You don't even need to know what you are doing to use it.

The Xenopatch feature is the best AI-based plugin feature I ever experienced so far. Sometimes it makes pretty accurate replications of your input samples as a synth patch, but it mostly just picks up a bit of the texture, tonaliy and rhythm and comes up with new variations that are just cool in their own right, and I love that :).
Also here's my video review:

edited comment:
4 stars now for the bug fixed. now about the latency: the daw i'm using is bitwig. it usually deals with latency correctly but it has a limit to how much latency a track is allowed to have. idk, i think it was 1sec or so. could it be that you try to send a longer latency to the daw with your plugin? apart from that i know no latency-bugs of bitwig.
old comment:
hey. cool tape stop plugin. i like the temposync feature. unfortunately it doesn't latency compensate the signal and the audio engine breaks when both time parameters are on 0. maybe check if you accidently left some edge cases that can stream nans and infs into the audio buffer.
fix these and i edit this comment and give you 5 stars, because the temposync feature is something that i really wanna have :).

Thank you very much for confirming that the bug was in fact fixed. As for the latency, what you say is rather interesting. The plugin has (and advertises) a latency of precisely one second (half of the max stop/start time). I wasn't able to find anything regarding the maximum latency compensation in Bitwig, can you point me so some resources? Perhaps though 2 seconds start/stop time is overkill. I could lower it to 1 second (so 500ms latency) if that means working better with Bitwig...
>>> old.
Thanks for the info. I just uploaded a patch. The crashes with start/stop time of zero might have been due to a division by zero. As for the latency compensation, the plugin actually does advertise its latency to the host, and it is up to the host to compensate for that. I could verify that latency is compensated in Reaper and Studio One 6, while for instance Ardour does not seem to compensate it. Which DAW are you using?

when i downloaded the plugin it had no parameter smoothing yet. i don't know if the developer has fixed that yet. that would be cool. apart from that it's just really good. has a great sound with a dark and smooth vibe to it, almost of wooden nature.

these filters are garbage. no seriously. they are. but that is what makes this plugin so good. yesterday i was making a shoegazey beat and i used some old sforzando library as a drumkit, because most of my other realdrum plugins are either kinda bad or not really suited for that vibe. anyway that sforzando kit is really polite so i needed a way to add more glue and intensity to the sound. most people would use distortion now, like waveshapers, or even some multiband-stuff. but try to slap nonlinear filter with fuzzy mode on it instead and the crash cymbals will totally crush into the kick and snare. it is just a completely different sound, kinda like distortion, but different. you don't even have to filter away a lot of frequencies to completely transform your stuff. transparent EQs are a thing. analog EQs with subtle warmth are a thing. and complete garbage EQs are also a thing now and it's just perfect.
