Astral-Dreamer_Free_3

Astral Dreamer is a 3 PCM wave oscillators synthesizer.

There are dedicated routing options starting right at the oscillators which can be routed to one of the two filters, a flanger, or direct to the VCA. So you can have a dedicated soundmodifier for each oscillator allowing a wide variety of multicoloured sounds within a single patch very much like multilayered sounds.

Each oscillator has got an Additional Harmonics Shaper (AHS) to enrich sound in generating shapeable upper harmonics from the selected wave. The character of this additional sound ranges from rich choruslike to metallic sounds and can be mixed – also via modulation – to the original wave.

The new waveset coming with Astral Dreamer does contain carefully processed waves to provide a wide variety of soundsources: Synth waves from real analog, virtual analog and digital synths, complex waveforms, soundscapes (mostly image generated sounds), plus some XFx sounds. Besides the routing possibilities there are a lot of modulation options to shape the sound into some intricate motion. And the straightforward GUI provides instant access to all controls for quick editing and tweaking to shape your sound.

Soundsources:

  • 3 PCM wave Oscillators each with 128 waves plus Additional Harmonics Shaper.

Filters:

  • 1 24 dB resonant Lowpass filter with ADSR EG and 4 channel mod mixer.
  • 1 12 dB resonant Lo, Hi or Bandpass filter with ADSR EG and 4 channel mod mixer.
  • Filter Routing: parallel or serial possible.
  • 1 Flanger.

Mod sources:

  • 2 Aux ADSR EG (3 & 4).
  • 3 bpm synced LFO.
  • 1 bpm synced Sample & Hold.
  • 1 bpm synced double LFO with phase shifting.

Output:

  • 1 VCA ADSR EG.
  • 1 Pan for direct signal.
  • 1 Pan for delay signal.
  • 1 Delay.
  • 1 Stereo Reverb.
  • 1 Saturate/LoBoost (4 modes).

Other:

  • Lazy button system.
  • Velocity Sensivity slider.
  • visual display of LFO motion (can be hidden).
  • 4 voices, 128 patches.
  • MIDI Learn/CC Edit for most control elements.
  • Inbuilt MIDI CC display.

ZEEK STFU is the best free volume shaper available.

STFU is a super quick to use sidechainer that can be automatically sync’d to host BPM or triggered by MIDI notes and it’s always sample accurate. Using MIDI trigger, you can overcome limitations of very many synth volume envelopes for a myriad of purposes.

STFU can also output CV for use with lots of hosts and modular plugins.

And if that isn’t enough, you can set up 2 separate envelopes and crossfade between them for all sorts of cool stuff.

ChowKick is a kick drum synthesizer based on creative modelling of old drum machine circuits. Along with a highly parameterizable pulse shaper, Chow Kick uses a resonant filter with several nonlinear modes, creating a wide range of possibilities for sound designers. The kick drum can also be easily “tuned” with incoming MIDI notes to match the key of your song.

StupidCompressor by SNFK Music is a Virtual Effect Audio Plugin for Windows. It functions as a VST Plugin.

This plugin isn’t meant to be tweaked for hours – it’s designed with the set-and-forget mentality. StupidCompressor is designed to be stupid easy to use. It contains classic controls as well as some advanced features in the advanced panel for more control on your sound. StupidCompressor is open source in the hope that it will help other developers in their own development and that other developers can help make StupidCompressor even better.

Full Feature List

  • Stereo Compressor with ratio, attack, release, and gain staging
  • Visualizer for the ratio and threshold
  • Visualizer showing the input & output levels, the threshold, and gain reduction.
  • Bandpass Compressor – Only compress a certain frequency range.
  • Transient Shaper – features both increase and decrease in transients.
  • Limiter – Found in the clipping section; it is used for clipping without creating new harmonics (and also plain limiting if you wish).
  • Soft & Hard Clipper – Sometimes you will want new harmonics; these are perfect for adding them in.

SpikeQ is a frequency based transient shaper.

As a distant cousin of Drum Snapper, it features the same attitude for increasing the Attack of a source, but expands it with the ability to enhance certain frequency areas on the attack portion of a sound.

Do you have a source that is too buried in a mix?

Do you want to make certain frequencies pop?

SpikeQ enables you to add huge boosts of eq but not making them too boomy and loose (in the low end) or too splashy (in the high end).

These plugins are free to use and I make them on my spare time. If you like them and are able to help by becoming a Patreon member, I would be very grateful.

Drum Snapper is a transient shaper tailored for drums.
It can add more snap or more sustain to the drums and has other extra functions not found on other transient shapers.
  • It has a Focus knob specially made for sharpening the attack of the drum.
  • A Tape-like Clipper that is oversampled to avoid aliasing (introduces latency, for best quality).
  • With the Release knob it is possible to shape the tail of the drum when adding sustain and change the sensitivity of the processing when adding attack;
  • A Tape-like Clipper for distorting high frequencies spikes, with both gain and mix controls. To add excitement.
