ComBear

ComBear is a parallel compressor plugin. The parallel compression means in simple words, take the original audio track (individual or group or Bus), and mix that audio track with the compressed track. The ComBear make it very easy because of its mix knob. Just adjust this knob according to how much parallel compression you need.

FB-3200

FB-3200, a freeware emulation of the Free Korg PS-3200 VST Plugin vintage analog synthesizer.
Following the recent release of the FB-3300 synthesizer and its predecessor, the FB-3100, Full Bucket Music continues ahead with its efforts of resurrecting rare, old Korg synthesizers in plug-in format. The subject of reincarnation this time is the KORG PS-3200 semi-modular synth from 1978. The original instrument’s behavior and controls have been faithfully recreated, FBM claims. That’s also evident from the synthesizer’s interface, which straight-up looks the part.
Other things the FB-3200 has to show synthesizer lovers are band-limited oscillators, classic lowpass filters, an equalizer section, a pair of modulation generators, and a paraphonic envelope generator. The semi-modular design has been upgraded with micro-tuning options and further tweaks like a 4-pole lowpass filter and adjustable resonators. The plugin also responds to note velocity, unlike its hardware counterpart. All parameters are controllable via MIDI CC. A user manual can be downloaded in English and French as well. Like all Full Bucket Music Plugins, the FB-3200 was coded in native C++ to ensure low CPU consumption and stable performance.

Molekules

Molekules is a soundscape generator with ten preset sounds which were created by running a piano sample into the MOLEKULAR modular multi-effects plug-in by Native Instruments. The resulting sounds were resampled, edited, and used as the sound source in this free virtual instrument. Molekules was put together using Maize Sampler, a piece of standalone software that enables easy creation of sample-based instrument plugins.
Quite experimental and unusual to begin with, the sounds in Molekules can be further shaped and adjusted with an ADSR envelope, Pan, and Gain controls; in addition to modulation via LFO with options for Rate, Depth, Waveform, and Destination. Finally, there are two built-in effects: Reverb and Pitch-shift. Whereas the controls are indeed somewhat limited, as is the case with all Maize Sampler creations due to the nature of the software, the modulation features and the built-in reverb do indeed allow for some versatility when editing the factory sounds.

Retrox

Retrox, a free sample-based rompler VST/AU plugin featuring the classic sounds of analog synthesizers. It is a rompler instrument with thirteen multi-sampled patches of this exact kind, sourced from unnamed equipment. They cover some classic strings and pads that work well in the mix and don’t use almost any CPU resources because the instrument is sample-based.
Retrox was made with Maize Sampler. This means that the sound adjustment options are somewhat limited, but you can still customize the sounds a bit using the provided ADSR envelope, HP/LP filtering, LFO, Reverb, Panning, Gliding, Amplitude, and Voice Mode controls.

• 5 adjustable frequency bands.
• Solo/mute function for each band individually.
• Linkwitz-Riley crossover filter design.
• 24/48dB/Oct filter slope.
• Multiple filter channel modes (Stereo/Left/Right/Mid/Side).
• Multiple monitor modes (Stereo/Left/Right/Mid/Side).
• Adjustable output level.
• Loudness dim function.

Ambient reverb

The free high-quality reverberator of "Ambient Reverb" is intended first of all for operation with sound material in a ambient genre, though with success it can be applied also in other musical styles and the directions.

Distinctive feature of a plug-in is the broad range of reverberation time (up to 100 seconds) that allows to receive types of reverberation, different on character, and also an opportunity in a literal sense to freeze sounds, at the same time to receive interesting sound pads, like Frippertronics. The reverberator of "Ambient Reverb" works by the principle of algorithmic reverberation with calculation enough the dense sound reflections on time, allowing to receive realistic reverberation without effect of granularity.

HY-Lofi2 is an improved version of the developer’s older HY-Lofi plugin which featured a very similar interface and control layout. The new iteration of HY-Lofi adds a dry/wet slider for easy parallel processing, an input gain control, and introduces two brand new quantizer modes. The drive section has been simplified by removing the drive shaping mode selector in favor of a more streamlined workflow.

The plugin still features a dedicated filter section with cutoff frequency adjustments for the HP and LP filters. A preset manager is also included in the top section of the interface, along with undo/redo buttons and a bypass switch. The user interface is fully resizable. HY-Lofi2 looks slightly different from its predecessor, sharing a similar color scheme but with redesigned buttons and sliders to fit the developer’s new lineup of plugins.

In use, HY-Lofi2 is a great tool for adding a bit of dirt to the processed signal. The bit reduction module offers four different digital distortion flavors to choose from, whereas the drive and filter sections help do a good job of rounding up the processed audio signal before the output.

PhatNoise Delay

PhatNoise Delay is a pretty straightforward delay effect with adjustable delay time, feedback, and dry/wet parameters. The product page states that the plugin emulates “the rich and thick sound of tape echo units from the 70s”, but I have to admit that I wasn’t getting any of that vibe while testing PhatNoise Delay. It sounds like a pure digital delay to me without any coloration of the delayed signal whatsoever.

DMGaudio TrackControl

TrackControl is an all-in-one channel strip plugin featuring trim and gain controls, channel swapping and MS/LR conversion, phase inversion (per channel), stereo width, pan and balance controls, channel delay (both backward and forward) and a high-pass filter. The output control (located in the menu bar) allows the user to monitor the Mid/Side and Left/Right components of the processed audio signal individually. A patch manager is also included, along with a bypass switch and input/output gain monitoring. It’s also worth pointing out that the plugin will only display a limited amount of controls when loaded on a mono channel, to avoid any confusion (stereo balance, pan, and width controls are left out in this case).

Etherealwinds Harp II

Etherealwinds Harp II is a multi-format sound library of a 34-string lever harp, recorded by Versilian Studios and Etherealwinds during an eight-hour studio session. It is described by its creators as “possibly the most complete lever harp library in existence”. Since it is a successor to a popular freely downloadable instrument, Versilian Studios decided to release a feature-limited “Community Edition” of the library which can be downloaded completely free of charge. User registration is not required, as the download links can be accessed directly on the product page linked below.

The free CE version of Etherealwinds Harp II is based on 232 audio samples (16-bit WAV format) in total, with two round-robins and two velocity layers per sampled note. An additional set of 23 vocal phrases and sound effects from the full version of the library is included as a bonus.

Fathom Mono Modular Synthesizer

Seaweed Audio has announced the release of Fathom Mono, the freeware monophonic version of the Fathom Pro ($35) modular wavetable synthesizer in VST plugin format for Windows-based digital audio workstations.

Fathom Mono is identical to the full Fathom Pro version feature-wise, except for its limited polyphony and the lack of ability to save edited waveforms. Everything else, entire synthesis engine included, is exactly the same as in the full product.

At its core, Fathom is a fully modular virtual synthesizer which allows the user to connect any two components together. The patching possibilities are only limited by the synth’s twenty available signal flow slots and, of course, the processing power of your computer. To help with monitoring the performance while creating a patch, Fathom shows a real-time CPU load readout in the upper-right corner of the GUI. The components are shown in a large panel in the middle of the interface with a handy real-time waveform display in the background. The patching of virtual cables is quite elegant, with a simple drag and drop workflow which doesn’t result in confusion and unnecessary clutter. The visual representation of the signal flow is also pulled off quite well, with easily identifiable modules and connections.

A modular synth ain’t no fun if you don’t have any interesting components to patch together, though. Thankfully, there’s tons of cool stuff to play around with in Fathom, from its five powerful oscillators to 30 different filter models, unlimited modulation sources, and custom waveform import (in WAV format). The oscillator types on offer are alias-free analog and additive, impulse and frequency pulse oscillators, and most importantly, the wavetable and wave draw oscillators which open almost limitless sound design possibilities. The filters are no less impressive, covering a range of common variants, along with the Butterworth filter and various analog-modeled filter types.

Cloud Seed

Cloud Seed is an algorithmic reverb plugin built in C# and C++ for emulating huge, endless spaces and modulated echoes. The algorithms are based on the same principles as manu classic studio reverb units from the 1980's, but Cloud Seed does not attempt to model any specific device, or even to be a general-purpose reverb plugin at all. It is best employed as a special effect, for creating thick, lush pads out of simple input sounds.

SL532 Console EQ

Based off of the standard EQ module found on a “5000 series” modern console, the SL532 provides the features found on the original hardware. This 3-band EQ is perfect for shaping sounds quickly in your mix. It also includes a “color” circuit that when activated adds a bit of color to the sound that adds an vintage analog feel.

-3-band EQ based off of a modern console
-Fixed 150Hz low shelf filter, variable mid-band from 80Hz to 8KHz, and selectable 8KHz or 16KHz high shelf filter
-Color circuit that adds an vintage analog feel
-Selectable High Pass Filter
-Very CPU efficient

https://smacklabs.wordpress.com/2017/04/10/sl532-console-eq/

SL84 is SmackLabs’ take on the 80 series Neve console EQ. According to the developers, it looks and, more importantly, sounds like the original.

SL84 Console EQ uses impulse responses to capture not just the frequency response of the hardware unit, but also the non-linear quirks such as any dynamic change or sonic distortion that occurs while adjusting the controls. This means the behavior of the EQ will be different depending on the amplitude and other characteristics of the input source.

SL84 has dials for low cut, high cut, low shelf, high shelf, and a mid-frequency band control with optional Hi-Q toggle. The higher Q setting would be useful for more surgical cutting, as opposed to boosting which typically sounds better at a lower Q. The frequency selection points for all of the dials are fixed. The restricted options preserve both the sound and workflow of the original units. The plugin also comes with a bypass button for the filter and EQ for easy A/B comparisons with the original input source.

It promises to be a low-CPU option for an expensive vintage sound.

TW-Elong synth

Synth with a very nice sound, 64 presets and lots of ways to edit sounds.
The combined sound of the 3 oscilators go to the amplifier, where you can use 3 envelopes
to create multi-layered sounds. All goes to the filter section with it's own envelope
and LFO. Seperate L/R delay with pre-delay. The sound then goes to the final delay for
even more crazy effects. Also a reverb and an EQ, wich can fatten the bottom end of sounds.
With all the delays on the envelopes and the effect section, it's a great synth to create
unique long sounds, but a lot more is possible.

Entropy by CTR is a one of a kind delay plugin! This delay has complete control over delay in each channel separately, but that isn’t what makes this plugin special. Entropy is a stereo cross-over delay. This is a unique type of delay that delays the signal from the left channel and places it in the right, and delays the signal in the right channel and places it in the left. This creates a whole new kind of delay and interesting stereo effects.

• Delay up to 2000 milliseconds.
• Unique Crossover Delay Effect.

SoundHack Delay Bundle

SoundHack Delay Bundle is a group of four plugins derived from the same basic delay algorithm: a hermite interpolated delay line with variable modulation, and a feedback loop with dc blocking and saturation. Pitch shifting is achieved with a dual head crossfading delay (ala Eltro Tempophon/Dennis Gabor/Pierre Schaeffer phonogene) and is decidedly retro. The saturating feedback also allows them to be great drone and noise generators.

FullBucket FB-1300

FB-1300, a new free synthesizer plugin that emulates the Korg PS-3100 polyphonic analog synthesizer.

“The PS-3100 was, in fact, the first synthesizer with the classic KORG patch bay, previewing many of the well-known MS-20 features, and the first (semi-)modular polyphonic synth at all!”

With this FB-3100 free software synthesizer, they tried to get closer to the original unit, as behavior, controllers, and sound.

This plugin featuring classic two-pole lowpass filters, band-limited oscillators, a resonators section, two modulation generators, sample & hold controls, additional ‘paraphonic’ Envelope. Generator, a semi-modular patch panel, micro tuning option, additional tweaks, MIDI learn and that’s it.

The FB-3100 is a VST™2.4 software instrument for Microsoft Windows® (both 32 and 64 bit) simulating the KORG PS-3100 Polyphonic Synthesizer from 1977. It is written in native C++ code for high performance and low CPU consumption.

FreeMod

FreeMod is a stereo phase modulation effect capable of pulling off simple tremolo-like modulation, as well as more aggressive FM-like sounds. The interface is organized into four color-coded sections: phase modulation, LFO (which modulates the PM rate), envelope (which also modulates the PM rate), and volume controls (input volume and wet/dry levels). The plugin includes ten modulation shapes (one of which is a random modulation source) which can be assigned as the LFO and the phase modulation waveforms. The envelope is a simple attack/release affair which detects the audio on the input and modulates the phase modulation rate accordingly.

MAX1

An automatic compressor with “intelligent” and variable release time and ratio settings.

The effect features an auto-release algorithm which conforms the compressor’s response to the characteristics of the processed signal. To make the workflow simpler than what is normally seen in a compressor, MAX1 features only the threshold, attack, and post gain (aka output volume) knobs, along with a soft clipper switch and a peak/RMS switch for the gain reduction and volume meters. In practice, this means that the user can simply load the plugin on a channel that needs to be compressed, adjust the threshold value to set the compression amount, and adjust the attack time to taste (depending on how much or little the transients need to be emphasized).

Control your peaks very easily or increase the energy and levels of your track or mix effortlessly.
Few controls but “Huge” sound!
The Plugin has accurate metering for both L/R input and output channels as well as Gain Gain Reduction Metering.
Great Presets to get you started on all types of material and also save your own presets.
When compressing a lot , just use the “Attack” knob to dial back the punch easily. Use the soft limit to make your tracks loud effortlessly and transparently.

Transpire

Transpire is a transient processor. It can enhance or dampen the initial attack and the sustain (body) of sound. Transpire has been designed to work well with drums and percussion. It does not operate linearly, which means small transients are being affected relatively stronger than large transients. This is good for bringing up smaller details while not overloading on large hits. As a result, percussive tracks can sound more steady and controlled compared to traditional transient enhancers.

• Attack enhance or dampen.
• Sustain enhance or dampen.
• Sensitivity controls the amount of details which Transpire can process. Small sensitivity will suit better for non-percussive material.
• Output is hard clipped at -0.1dB.
