*** Note: DerVoco is an Audio Unit effect extension and requires an AUv3 compatible host app, like AUM, BM3, Cubasis or GarageBand. It does not run as a standalone app *** Make your synths or drums speak and sing! DerVoco is a vintage vocoder emulation. DerVoco uses analog modelled components including filters, envelope followers and companders to create a warm vintage sound instead of digital techniques like FFT. Features: • AUv3 Audio Effect and Audio Music Effect, works in all AUv3 compatible hosts. • Internal polyphonic VCO may be used as a carrier and can be controlled via MIDI, when plugin is loaded as AU MFx. • A special "input mode” where the carrier and modulator signals are encoded as the left and right channels of a stereo input signal. In this mode any synth plugin (e.g. BeepStreet Zeeon) may be used as a carrier signal. • 11 or 15 bands with on-screen equalizer. • Controllable filter resonance continuously blends from smooth to sharp and ringing sound signature. • Built in compressor and noise gate • Optimised to the limits: 60 filters take 4% CPU on latest iPads.

WOOTT is an Audio Unit plugin (AUv3 audio effect) inspired by the infamous OTT sound. WOOTT uses a triple band dynamics algorithm with simultaneous downwards AND upwards compression, and adds a dedicated limiter to each band. So what's all that techno mumbojumbo good for? 1. First, it slams all the loud, dominant aspects of your sound 2. Next it blows up all the subtle quiet bits that were hiding below As a result, it's perfect for: - Blowing up average sounds to massive proportions - Giving an aggressive sharp edge to synthesizer filters - Bringing out subtle details and movement that would otherwise get lost in the mix (in a hamfisted way, though) - Dusting off old breakbeat samples and loops - Hyping specific aspects of your synth lines - Making generally boring things more interesting WOOTT features: - AUv3 audio unit effect plugin - Universal (all iPads and iPhones supported + MacOS M & Intel) - Runs in all your favorite AUv3 plugin hosts: Cubasis, AUM, Beatmaker 3, Nanostudio 2, Garageband, etc. - Multi-output (requires compatible host) for post-processing the individual bands - Low-resource, so stack as many of them as you like - "[WO]OTT all the things!" - Downwards *and* upwards compressors (a rare feature on conventional dynamics plugins) - Smart soft limiter per band, adapts to its own band's specific settings - Mono switch makes low-band signal monaural for an extra tight bass Note: this is not a subtle effect. If subtle and minimal are what you're after, this is not the droid you're looking for :-)
