WRECK destroys audio in the most musical ways possible. Reduce bit depth down to 1-bit dust. Decimate the sample rate to dial frequencies. Smear jitter across the clock. Mangle wavecycles at the zero-crossing level. WRECK puts every form of digital degradation in one place. Clean destruction or full collapse — it's yours. — BITCRUSHER — Bit Depth from 24 down to 1. Dead Zone and Dither shape the quantization character. Quant Mode selects the rounding algorithm. — SAMPLE RATE REDUCER — Decimate the sample rate from full down to aliased chaos. Tempo sync locks it to your host BPM. Jitter adds clock instability. — CYCLE MANGLER — Operates on individual wavecycles. Amount controls how aggressively cycles are reshaped. Shape blends between cycles. Sens sets the zero-crossing detection threshold. — DRIVE SECTION — Drive pushes the signal. Bias offsets the waveform asymmetrically. Alias adds deliberate aliasing artifacts. Oversample when you need clean destruction instead. — FILTERS — Pre and post filters (cutoff + Q) bracket the destruction. Shape what goes in, shape what comes out. — MIX & OUTPUT — Dry/wet blend for parallel destruction. Output gain to compensate. — AUv3 PLUGIN — Run WRECK inside AUM, ApeMatrix, Audiobus, or any AUv3 host. Multiple instances, each with independent settings. — WORKS ON — iPhone and iPad, all modern screen sizes.
