The Raw Byte Audio Machine allows the user to operate on a constant sawtooth wave that is calculated against the assigned sample rate and bit-depth. With each sample, the counter "t" increments by 1. Your expression is evaluated and the lowest bits become a PCM audio sample. Expressions allow for binary arithmetic like addition, subtraction, division, and modulo; and bitwise operations like AND/OR/NOT and bit shifting. With these combinations of tools, a single expression can yield tremendous musical results in complex rhythms, harmonies, and melodies, all while operating on a single sawtooth wave. Operates as a standalone app or AUv3 instrument plugin.

SignatureDYN - Compressor / Gate / Limiter SignatureDYN is a professional 3-in-1 dynamics processor for iPhone and iPad. It combines a peak compressor, a smooth noise gate, and a brick-wall limiter in a single AUv3 plugin - covering the complete dynamics processing chain in one insert slot. Compressor Hard-knee peak compressor with independent attack and release. Threshold from −60 to 0 dB, ratio from 1:1 to 20:1. Transparent at low ratios, aggressive at high ratios. Gate Exponential noise gate with smooth closing - 3× slower than opening to avoid clicks and unnatural cutoffs. A dedicated LED indicator lights when the gate is active, making threshold setting precise and visual. Limiter Brick-wall output limiter with fixed 0.1 ms attack. No signal exceeds the set ceiling. Release follows the compressor release time. Default ceiling −0.3 dB — transparent protection always on. Metering Real-time Input VU meter and Gain Reduction meter with dB scale. Signal presence LED. Features AUv3 Audio Unit Extension - loads in AU EngineCore and any AUv3 compatible host Zero latency Full parameter automation Responsive UI - iPhone and iPad, portrait and landscape 7 automatable parameters: Threshold, Ratio, Attack, Release, Makeup Gain, Gate, Limiter #nobodysbanda
