## What is Dustbin AUv3?

To celebrate International Joke Day 2022, we wanted to make an audio plugin. This plugin had to be a bit different. We started by creating a dustbin sound system (garbage can for our American friends). We got a real dustbin and put some speakers in it! After it all was done, we ended up with an interesting creative audio effect plugin called Dustbin!

This plugin will litter-ally change your life. Stop wasting time, you can’t refuse it any longer. Take everything you thought you knew about music production and throw it out.

Imagine you left two easily entertained idiots alone with a dustbin, amp, speaker, some microphones, and a worrying idea. Well actually, you don’t have to imagine at all, because Dustbin is here to answer those musical questions you never asked.

Pick your way through the impulse responses taken from the Bin’s cavity and built-in speaker. Transform your Garage into Garbage, Rap into Scrap, Pop into Slop, Punk into Junk, and New Age into Sewage.

No more worrying about IF your music sounds trash, now it definitely does. You’re welcome.

Dustbin is both a stand-alone application as well as an AUv3 plugin, meaning it works within iOS and iPadOS hosts such as GarageBand.

### 5/5 — Best plugin ever

*2026-09-03*

I use it on nearly everything, especially organs and synths. I just like things to sound awful, in a good way.

### 5/5 — Excellent addition

*2024-07-25*

Love this app already!
Applied to drum patterns followed by Dubstation or similar delay effect this Dustbin app is great for adding extra random textures to an ambient track by bringing it in and out sliding your finger up and down the dustbin to be delayed into the ether of your track.
Great fun so it is!
Thanks Caelum audio 👍

### 5/5 — Let’s talk trash!

*2024-07-04*

What a waste, wheeling around with this garbage!
I refuse to say anything disposable about this app.
Total rubbish, and I mean that in the best possible sense.
A total throw away item.
Can I suggest a recycling bin as a follow up based on a jaw harp?
Love to the Caelum project!

### 5/5 — Unironically a lifesaver for riddim production

*2023-02-19*

Making riddim basses in GarageBand is usually a headache and a half. But with this plug-in, especially set to "Wheelie Good Guitar", it sounds almost professional. I legitimately dropped a track using Dustbin during a live set.

### 5/5 — Fantastic!

*2022-09-07*

One of my favorite AUV3 plugins. Truly amazingly modeled sound. I don’t understand how someone could give it one star. 5 stars!!!!

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2022-08-14*

Get it

### 5/5 — 太强了，好好玩哈哈哈

*2022-07-16*

好玩，像以前把收音机丢进洗衣机

### 1/5 — Junk

*2022-07-11*

You’re kidding right?

**Developer response:** we NEVER kid around on international joke day, no sir!

### 5/5 — Sweet garbage!

*2022-07-11*

Great app with so many ways to grunge things up. Bin it!

### 5/5 — Awesome!

*2022-07-08*

Totally usable, and right up my street . Reminds me a bit of audio easels speakerphone, in terms of vibe. Sounded great on some drums from Playbeat, rammed through the Schlap compressor. Nice work
