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 :-)

*** Note: Combustor is an Audio Unit effect extension and requires an AUv3 compatible host app, like Logic Pro, Drambo or GarageBand. It does not run as a standalone app *** Combustor is a unique, wild resonating body fashioned to spice up or extremely transform your tracks. At the heart of Combustor is a custom time bending resonator that doesn't sound like anything you have heard before. You can create anything from vibrant, distorted texture, perfectly suited for "hardcore" electronic musicians, to subtle physical resonance, which is often lacking in synthesized sounds. Combustor contains an envelope follower, to create dynamic-controlled pitch or filter sweeps. It also has MIDI input, that controls resonator's pitch, to make something melodic and organic out of non-melodic sounds, like drums. With just a few knob turns, a boring sound can be turned into screaming madness that sounds like it went out of control. A simple and straightforward interface makes Combustor a performative tool that allows you to directly interact with your sound.
