ThermVoltSilicon

Read full description

ThermVoltSilicon is a precise digital recreation of classic silicon diode-based overdrive circuits. It delivers the tighter, brighter, and more articulate character typical of silicon clipping stages, while faithfully modeling analog imperfections such as power supply sag, battery voltage variation, and temperature-dependent diode behavior. Built with the MIT-licensed Patina DSP engine, this AUv3 plugin combines circuit-accurate modeling with modern features for both vintage tone enthusiasts and contemporary producers. FEATURES • Silicon diode clipping with realistic forward voltage and temperature response • Authentic power supply sag and voltage variation (9V / 18V modeling) • Temperature control (15–75°C) affecting diode behavior • Inst / Line input modes with appropriate impedance and gain staging • Switchable Boost stage (+20dB) • Variable high-pass filter • Classic analog-style tone control • 2x / 4x high-quality oversampling • Very low CPU usage, optimized for iOS • AUv3 support with smooth parameter automation SUITABLE FOR • Electric guitar (tight crunch to singing lead) • Bass guitar • Synthesizers & drum machines • Keyboards • Vocals & parallel saturation • Lo-fi, indie, rock, and modern production COMPATIBILITY • AUv3 Plugin • iPhone & iPad (iOS 15+) • AUv3 hosts.

Frequency Detector Tool is a free, elegant frequency and musical-key analyzer for producers, mixing engineers, sound healers, and the musically curious. Type in any frequency in Hertz — like 315, 2.5k, or 29834 — and instantly see: The musical note it maps to (e.g. A4 = 440 Hz) How many cents sharp or flat it is Whether it's IN KEY for the key you've selected The nearest "cut candidate" — the closest out-of-key frequency Vocal context notes to guide your EQ decisions Pick your key from all 12 tones and the whole analysis updates instantly, showing the in-key snap, the nearest cut, and vocal-range context (like the "Mud Zone" around 250–400 Hz). Open the full frequency chart to see every note across octaves 0–7, laid out for boosting and cutting in your chosen key — scroll to explore the entire spectrum. Also included: Clickable Solfeggio frequencies (432, 528, 639, 741, 852, 963) with a note on what each is associated with "Did You Know?" music-theory facts A calm, sacred-geometry inspired interface Frequency Detector Tool is completely free — no ads, no subscriptions, no catch.
