Scissor Hands vs TwinPath

Scissor Hands is a dual filter with internal drive and modulation to boot. High-pass and low-pass filters in series, four modulation sources, and internal saturators you can push up to +36 dB. It may look straightforward, but this little filter is extremely capable, equally useful for clean tone shaping and brutal sonic destruction. Dual Filters - High-pass and low-pass filters in series - Selectable steepness per filter - Drive internal saturators up to +36 dB. At 0 dB, perfectly clean and linear - Per-filter Q-Gain Compensation for taming output at high resonance settings - Updated drive gain compensation for louder output at high settings Modulation - Stereo LFO with nine waveforms, warp, and swing - Envelope follower with optional sidechain input - Eight-step sequencer - Self FM, filter audio output to cutoff for spicy audio-rate modulation - Freely mixable modulation sources per filter - Repeatable Random engine for consistent bounces Core Features - Morph Settings for smooth transitions between two complete configurations - Auto Bypass saves CPU when input is silent - AB settings comparison - HQ mode with 4x oversampling - One-click loudness matching - All parameters automatable with precise playback - Light and dark interface modes - Internal undo/redo - Standalone app includes support, manual links and in-app purchase options for license purchase Two-week trial included, one-time purchase for full unlock.

TwinPath enables parallel effects processing using your existing Audio Units, without configuring busses or complex routings. It hides the details of managing multiple signal paths, and offers a compact, quickly accessible control interface. The result is a consistent setup you can easily recreate in any DAW, regardless of how each host handles audio routing. Among its possible applications, TwinPath pairs especially well with delay effects for dynamic performances. Shifting focus from deep editing to switching between (or blending) entire modules opens up a new perspective and new features – especially when feedback delays are involved. And of course, both approaches can be applied at the same time. Once inserted into a track’s effects chain, TwinPath handles splitting and merging audio streams and provides several convenience features. It offers two main classes of operation: CROSS-FADE • Blend between two effects chains using a single control • Switchable pre/post operation: pre mode preserves effect tails and lets feedback effects "breathe", while post mode offers instant, direct control DUAL MONO • Run different effects chains for Left/Right, Mid/Side, or a continuous blend between them • Channel mapping and FX bias are smooth, performance-friendly controls • Quick and efficient workflow replacement that overcomes functional limits of stock dual mono modes, such as restrictions on independent preset loading PLEASE NOTE: • An AUv3-compatible host is required to use this app
