GSi Phaser Factory is a versatile phase shifter effect in the likes of some famous guitar pedals such as the Phase 90, the Small Stone, and stuff like that. With Phaser Factory you can create your own phaser and even try to "clone" an existing model. Select the number of phase shifting stages, from 1 up to 20! Set the LFO width and offset. Configure the feedback chain, the output mix and the summing stages. The algorithm is simple and efficient, once you get the perfect vibe, save your presets. And if you're a plugin developer, you can even export a C++ Class that you can use in your project to play the exact preset you've created in Phaser Factory. Phaser Factory is not only a phaser, it's all of them.

About

TowerDub

Features
Read full description

TowerDub is an all-in-one groovebox for building reggae riddims and mixing dub, live. Program kick, snare, hats and perc as four independent drum voices, each with its own pattern, velocity and p-locks. Layer in Bass, Chords, Lead and Pads — warm, analog-style synths built for roots and dub, playable on a scale keyboard and recordable live with real quantized overdub. Record a vocal chop or a field sample straight into the built-in Sampler. Mix it down through a proper dub desk: send delay and reverb per instrument, sweep a King Tubby–style resonant filter across any bus, throw in siren stabs, and pass your mic straight through the board. Cut instruments in and out live, capture the whole pass with one-tap dub recording, and keep multiple mix versions of the same riddim. No subscriptions — just a warm, hand-tuned instrument built for the sound of the desk.
