BitterSweet v3 Freeware – The BitterSweet Transient Designer


[ AU 32 & 64 bit | VST 32 & 64 bit | AAX Native/DSP* | Merging VS3 32 & 64 bit** ]

BitterSweet v3 Freeware is a free software processing tool for managing audio transients. Turning the big wheel button on the sweet side, decreases the transients amplitude. On the bitter side the transients amplitude is magnified.

BitterSweet v3 Freeware is built around our latest 64-bit version 3 framework improving the processing performance dramatically. The graphic rendering in Bittersweet v3 is using a GPU-efficient 2D/3D graphic engine. The engine, introduced first in the Pure Analyzer System, is based on the OpenGL standard optimizing the audio-to-visual experience utilizing the GPU on the computer’s built in graphics card.

BitterSweet v3 also features a control for the signal to be processed. When the main position is engaged, the process affects the stereo signal. If Center is engaged, only the M signal of the internal MS matrix is processed. If stereo is selected, only the S signal from the MS matrix is processed.

Three transient detection modes can be selected. Varying periods of integration for transients can be accessed. A Link function is provided to compensate the output gain with respect to the transient processing setting.

Like all Flux:: plug-ins, it features 64 bit floating point processing, up to 8 channels and up to 8 FS (384 KHz). Center and Stereo Modes are only available in stereo processing (2 channels).
We hope you will enjoy this new tool and make your mix Bitter, or Sweet…

 Neither Flux or iLok dongle, nor registration is required.

 Open Sound Control Support

Open Sound Control (OSC) is a content format for messaging among computers, sound synthesizers, and other multimedia devices that are optimized for modern networking technology. Bringing the benefits of modern networking technology to the world of electronic musical instruments, OSC’s advantages include interoperability, accuracy, flexibility, and enhanced organization and documentation.

With the Flux:: version 3 (v3) framework support for OSC is introduced in order to allow for remote control of the plug-in parameters using OSC enabled devices and software applications such as TouchOSC for iPhone / iPod Touch / iPad.

Stereo Tool v3 Freeware Plugin

 

Stereo Tool v3 from fluxhome.com , Its a great addition to any home studio. its definitely a “must have”.

Detail Information

Stereo Tool v3 freeware plugin features ultra precise control of input gain and individual pan for left and right channels. A phase inverter is available on each channel. Global stereo pan and stereo width settings are also implemented to complete the management of the stereo signal.

Stereo Tool v3 also offers accurate visual feedback reflecting the signal content. A vector scope display, PPM meters for both inputs and outputs, and a phase correlation meter permanently monitor the signal.

Inserting our Stereo Tool v3 after a BitterSweet v3, will open your mind to new ways of controlling the stereo stage.

Like all Flux:: plug-ins it features 64 bit internal floating point processing, up to 8 FS (384 KHz).

No dongle or registration required.

Features

Signal Processing Features

-Output Gain, controlling the gain at the end of the processing.
-Bypass routes the incoming signal direct to the output for a true smooth transition between processed and clean signal.

Three different transient processing modes:

-Main, using a regular stereo signal scheme for the processing.
-Center, processing the Mid channel only, very efficient for snare and kick drums.
-Stereo, processing the Side channel only, very efficient for panned rhythmic/transient

Processing Specifications

Stereo Tool v3, as all Flux:: plug-ins, provide

-Up to 8 channels Input/Output.* 64-bits internal floating point processing.
-Sampling rate up to 384 kHz DXD (Pyramix & Ovation MassCore/Native)**
-Sampling rate up to 384 kHz for native (AU/VST(AAX).
*Not when using Center and Stereo mode, as they are M/S modes requiring stereo operation.

Compatibility

All major native formats are supported
-Windows – Vista, 7 and 8 all in both 32 and 64 bits*. (XP v.2.4 / 32 bit only)
-VST (2.4)
-AAX Native
-Mac OS X (Intel) – 10.7, 10.8 and 10.9 in both 32 and 64 bits*.
-VST (2.4)
-AU
-AAX Native

Due to AVID ProTools changing to AAX, from Version 3 (v3) RTAS for AVID ProTools is no longer supported.

This is been another great discovery, amazing drums sound at a great price. With a great variety of Styles and drums sets. There many options of Drums Sound library, but what I have experience is that often is hard to find  good soft drums with “Jazzy” sound, and for the price probably this is something to consider.

“Analogue Drums kits are distinctive sounding drum libraries that are regarded as some of the most natural, organic, toneful and ‘real’ sampled drums available. We seek out great sounding kits, track them in a variety of cool acoustic spaces through fine mics and selected analogue gear to produce characterful drum sounds.”*

TDR VOS SlickEQ Free Plugin

TDR VOS SlickEQ Free Plugin  win/mac

Tokyo Dawn Records has just release a new free EQ plugin that just looks awesome! not just for the posibilities of use or quality but also for the great looking interface. Among all the free plugins available on the internet Tokyo Dawn offers probably if not the best some of the best available free plugins available today.

About TDR VOS SlickEQ

TDR VOS SlickEQ is a mixing/mastering equalizer designed for ease of use, musical flexibility and impeccable sound.

Three (and a half) filter-bands arranged in a classic Low/Mid/High semi-parametric layout offer fast and intuitive access to four distinct EQ modes, each representing a set of distinct EQ curves and behaviors. An elaborate auto gain option automatically compensates for changes of perceived loudness during EQ operation. Optionally, SlickEQ allows to exclusively process either the stereo sum or stereo difference (i.e. “stereo width”) without additional sum/difference encoding.

In order to warm up the material with additional harmonic content, SlickEQ offers a switchable EQ non-linearity and an output stage with 3 different saturation models. These options are meant to offer subtle and interesting textures, rather than obvious distortion. The effect is made to add the typical “mojo” often associated with classy audio gear.

An advanced 64bit multirate processing structure practically eliminates typical problems of digital EQ implementations such as frequency warping, quantization distortion and aliasing.

Beside the primary controls, the plug-in comes with an array of additional helpers: Advanced preset management, undo/redo, quick A/B comparison, copy & paste, an online help, editable labels, mouse-wheel support and much more.

“Molot”: the compressor with character

NOTE#1. Looking for transparent compressor? This not your choice. This compressor adds a lot of coloring to sound.
NOTE#2. Too complex? This compressor is not for beginners. It’s pretty hard to tune it up but if you’re able, you’ll get THE SOUND!
NOTE#3. Scared with GUI?  GUI language can be switched. Also there’s GUI-less version included.
NOTE#4. Too much CPU? Turn off oversampling.
NOTE#5. Too much distortion? First, match your levels to 0 dbVU = -18 dBFS. Next, saturation can be switched off. See the manual for details.
NOTE#6. Too noisy? Turn off the dithering. See the manual for details.
NOTE#7. Do you still want to use it? Proceed to downloads page, please.

About Vladishlav Goncharov:
“I work with a sound only as a hobby. I record and mix garage bands from time to time and I can’t say I’m doing it like professional. Also I have very few digital signal processing (DSP) knowledge. But on the other hand I have professional programming skills and I can distinguish good or bad sounding either of plugins or hi-fi gear. The mixture of that all leads to very interesting things.

There’re a lot of cool plugins (and gear). I don’t think I should mimic them all just because they are already exist and they are already cool. The idea is to make something else”.
