Klevgrand Everything Bundle

Borsta (Swedish verb, means to brush) is a drum and percussion instrument that simulates strokes and brushes. Its unique audio engine allows for an endless number of very natural sounding brushing phrases and rhythms.

What sets Borsta apart from similar instruments is that its audio engine supports continuous changes in intensity. This makes it possible to create lifelike brushing phrases and patterns, something that can’t be easily achieved with ordinary sample-based instruments.

The parallel envelope and events sequencers allow you to determine exactly when to start a stroke, how the stroke’s pressure/speed should evolve over time, and when to end it. On top of that, each instrument also offers multi-sampled one-shots with advanced choking capabilities.

Each instrument is based on more than 400 high-quality samples, recorded for playing with different velocities and round robins. The initial version of Borsta comes with 18 different instruments, but each instance of the plug-in emulates one single drum instrument at a time. That means the sequences can only be played one at a time. However, switching between sequences can be done seamlessly via MIDI, and additional one-shot samples can be triggered using an ordinary MIDI track.

The instruments are all structured and MIDI-mapped in a uniform way, which makes it possible to use the same sequence on any instrument. For instance, a traditional swing pattern will sound musically correct no matter whether you choose a Frame Drum, Tambourine, or Snare Drum – it will just sound like the musician changed instruments.

Features

• 18 high-quality instruments with 6 multi-sampled one shots each
• 230 pre-made factory sequences
• 60 Global presets covering different sounds and genres
• Separate volume and velocity curve control of each sound type

  A vast collection of presets in many different styles, ready to play or to be used as a starting point.

Korvpressor

Compression has never been this easy.

If you work with audio, you will eventually need a good compressor in your toolbox. Korvpressor is an adaptive compressor / limiter, designed for all purposes in audio treatment. It has a super-simple UI with a unique approach on how to tame and visualize a compressor, now also with some added controls to make it even more versatile. The basic controls are still minimalistic – set the input gain, level of compression, and the output gain. The compression algorithm was designed with transparency in mind, and Korvpressor will sound great on almost any kind of sound; all from a vocal track to a full blown mix. If you push it even harder, it gives a nice squeezing effect.

Features

• Recognized high-quality compression algorithm
• Unique and easy-to-use UI
• New: Attack / Release time switch (three states)
• New: Dry/Wet mix
• New: Ratio switch (three states)
• New: Maximizer Mode on/off (with a Make Up parameter knob if set to off)
• New: Plenty of factory presets
• New: Output brickwall limiter on/off switch
• 3-band smooth EQ
• Lookahead on / off

Anatomy

• 1. Input level
  Drag up to increase the input signal level.
• 2. Squeeze
  This is the main control of Korvpressor. Imagine that you’re pinching the sound waves, so the more squeeze you want, the further down you should go with this handle.
• 3. Output
  Make-up gain after the squeezing.
• 4. Post EQ
  A musical and versatile EQ to fine-tune your finished sausages.
• 5. Flip the switches
  Added controls for the compression behaviour.

Kleverb

A smart reverb, designed to fit in any mix

Kleverb is a high-quality algorithmic reverb effect. An intuitive UI combined with a carefully calibrated network of filters and delays makes this a powerful effect useful in any context; all from acoustic jazz to EDM.

Usage:

With three different room size setups (small, medium, large), selectable filter on both early and late reflections, modulation, damping, diffusion, and much more, almost any kind of room can be simulated. There is also a ducker included that uses the dry signal as side-chain. Very useful to keep vocals or other solo instruments distinct even when they’re soaking wet. The 64 factory presets cover most of the Kleverb features.

Features

• Room size selection
• Filters with selectable type on both early and late reflections
• Wet signal modulation
• Damping filter
• Diffusion and Stereo Spread parameters
• Decay time between 0 and 25 seconds
• Pre-delay parameter
• Ducker (compressor), with dry signal as sidechain
• Early / Late signal mix parameter
• Wet and Dry signal level parameters

Anatomy

• 1. Decay? OK!
  Up to 25 seconds should give you enough time to figure out what your next pad chord should be.
• 2. Damp, diffuse, spread.
  Shape your space with intuitive and clever controls for both small and big changes.
• 3. Too much guck? Duck!
  Often used, seldom built in the reverb itself. A trick to clarify a reverb-drenched lead vocal or instrument. It lowers the reverb while the dry signal is active, and raises it in the pauses. Everybody gets happy!
• 4. Modulation salvation
  Modulate the reverb to give it a little more life.

Brusfri

An advanced audio noise reducer with a simple and straight-forward interface

Brusfri is a highly advanced audio noise reducer, packed into a simple and straightforward interface. It is very well suited for cleaning up noisy audio recordings while retaining sound quality. Unlike many other noise reducers on the market, Brusfri doesn’t mess with audio phasing to suppress noise (a technique that often comes with audible side effects). Instead, multiple fine-tuned gates are used to silence unwanted noise.

Features

• Several frequency-trimmed expanders build an intelligent noise suppressor
• No phase-altering, which leaves the desired sound untouched (no squishy artifacts as in many other noise reducers)
• Intuitive and unique user interface

Anatomy

• 1. Attack-Threshold-Release
  These parameters control all the internal expanders relatively.
• 2. Learn button
  Brusfri needs some noise to be analyzed. Most of the time, this is the only thing that’s needed. Push and hold to feed audio data and create a noise profile.
• 3. Tonality
  Most of the time, Brusfri does a good job in creating a noise profile that works as expected, but in some cases (especially when there’s heavy noise involved) one needs to tweak a bit.

GoToEQ

A classic EQ unit reinvented for the digital age

GotoEQ is a new evolution of a vintage passive tube-based program equalizer, expanding on that classic sound with dynamic EQ bands. GotoEQ performs the classic ‘low-end trick’ with dual Boost and Attenuate controls for its low shelf, but it also offers the ability to perform a ‘high-end trick’, with a similar formulation of high shelving. With continuous frequency selection, you can tune each band as you like. But most importantly of all, GotoEQ’s two mid bands offer dynamic attenuation, bringing a musical approach to the classic EQ unit.

Usage:

Simultaneously boost and cut the low shelf to create that low-mid scoop on bass tracks. De-ess vocals or de-harsh overheads by engaging dynamic attenuation and tuning the high-mid band. Add air to signals with the high shelf filter, and ‘scoop’ the high-mids using a ‘high-end trick’. Get control over the ‘nose’ of bass tracks with dynamic attenuation of the Low Mid and High Mid bands. Subtly EQ a whole mix or bus using light settings and mild compression.

Features

• Low- and High Shelf filters, with detailed modeling of a classic passive EQ unit
• Two parametric dynamic filters
• High-pass filter: 20/40/80 Hz
• Preset library
• Continuous frequency selection for all four bands
• Boost and Attenuation for the Low and High shelving bands
• Gain, Q, and Dynamic Attenuation for the two mid bands
• Finely-tuned compression algorithm makes mid bands react dynamically to the signal
• Global Input and Output Gain controls (+/-24dB)
• Global bypass and individual band bypass
• Peak metering for the input or output

Anatomy

• 1. Prepare for treatment
  To let the dynamic processors work at their best, make sure to set the right input level.
• 2. Classic style filters
  Two shelving filters with separate Boost & Attenuation controls. To achieve the ‘Pultec’ effect, both boost and attenuation must be above 0 dB.
• 3. Dynamic parametric EQ:s
  These work a bit different than the Low & High filters – a dynamic processor attenuates the signal. Fine tune with the gain knob.
• 4. Level like a boss
  VU-meters for Input or Output levels.

Gaffel

Create multiband effects with any plugin

Gaffel (“Fork” in Swedish) is a simple tool that splits audio into different frequency bands. Using it on multiple channels lets you use your favorite plugins as multiband effects. The different crossover frequencies are globally synchronized between grouped instances of the plugin, making it convenient to work with in any DAW.

The classic Linkwitz-Riley crossover filter algorithm gives the sum of all bands a flat amplitude response and a smooth changing phase response.

Set up:

1. Duplicate the signal to up to four channels

2. Add Gaffel to these channels

3. Add any effect on only the desired frequency band(s)

Features

• Linkwitz-Riley crossover filter algorithm
• Frequency parameters are synchronized globally between instances
• Supports up to 8 different groups
• Up to four frequency bands
• Resizable window

Anatomy

• 1. Three crossover frequencies
  Frequencies will be synchronized among all instances of the plugin that belongs to the selected group (2). Hold down option key while dragging for fine-tuning.
• 2. Four frequency bands
  Click to toggle a specific band on/off.
• 3. Eight different groups
  Frequencies will only sync within the selected group.

Esspresso

A powerful de-esser with an intuitive workflow

The new updated Esspresso v1.2 is the ultimate de-essing solution for anyone involved in audio recording, boasting a brand-new interface that’s both sleek and user-friendly. The update also comes with updated filters, a timeline view, presets, and much more!

In almost all modern audio production, the menace of sibilance (those pesky high-frequency noises) has long troubled creators, engineers, and producers. For instance, achieving a pristine vocal tone and fine-tuning the EQ can turn into a daunting task when the ‘s’:s distort and throw your mix off balance.

Esspresso’s brilliance lies in its unique approach. Unlike many conventional de-essers, it decouples the detection frequency range from the suppressor’s frequency range. This means you can pinpoint and compress specific frequencies, a feature highly coveted by professional sound engineers. With its lightning-fast and pinpoint-precise frequency response display, Esspresso places total control over those annoying S-sounds firmly in your hands, ensuring that they no longer threaten the integrity of your mix.

Features

• Visual reduction RMS
• Visual detector RMS
• Detector sensitivity gain
• Solo switch for the detector signal
• v1.2 Four suppressor modes (link, wide, shelf, and band)
• Intuitive and unique user interface
• v1.2 Threshold & ratio control
• v1.2 Attack & release controls
• v1.2 Timeline view
• v1.2 Collection of presets

Anatomy

• 1. Living in the past
  The new timeline view will help you to know what Esspresso has been doing in the past seconds.
• 2. Set your pain threshold
  Control at what audio level Esspresso will start working.
• 3. Presets
  The new preset collection will get you started really quick.

Haaze 2

Bring any mono signal to life with this stereo enhancer

The upgraded Haaze v2 from Klevgrand is an elegant solution for controlling stereo width and spatially positioning a sound in a stereo mix. Regular L-R panning is a weak tool that doesn’t resemble real-world acoustics, which becomes clear when trying to place a mono sound naturally in a stereo mix (especially on headphones). The result still feels very “mono”. Haaze is an audio plugin that makes the positioning feel more natural, understandable, and pleasant for the ears. It splits the audio signal into 16 frequency bands. On each band, you can delay the left or right signal (which will make the listener believe the sound arrives from the side that’s reaching the ear first), pan it to the left or right, or adjust the overall width on that band (for example, make the lower frequencies more focused in the middle than the higher). Haaze can also diffuse a mono signal and make it wider.

If this sounds complicated, Haaze comes with many presets that will help you to get started. It sounds good both in headphones and loudspeakers, and it has great mono compatibility.

Features

• 16 independent frequency bands
• Haas: Control the delay between L/R on each band
• Pan (Split EQ): Pan each band L/R
• M/S: Control the width on each band
• Gain: Compensate the gain level on each band
• Draw mode, for easy plotting out the adjustment curve that you want
• Lots of presets for helping you to get started
• Stereo width meter + Level meter on each band

Anatomy

• 1. I Can Haaze?
  Control the delay between Left and Right on each band.
• 2. Pan(ic) button
  This mode can pan each band separately between Left and Right.
• 3. In your widest dream
  This mode sets how wide you want each band to be.
• 4. Gainz
  Only if you need to compensate the gain after processing each band.
• 5. Happy Birthday Mr Presetident
  Lots of presets that will help you to get started.

Pipa

A singing wavetable- and granulating synth with lots of expression

Pipa is a singing vocal synth with a unique and different sound. It is inspired by the expression and flexibility of the human voice, but does not aim to cover all the aspects of an actual voice. Instead, it focuses on an organic and musical sound where the user has the possibility to control formants and dynamics seamlessly.

The synth engine is a crossover between a wavetable- and a granulating synthesizer, which results in a very expressive and playable instrument. Instead of using ordinary samples or processing oscillators with formant filters, Pipa uses a large database of thousands of wavetables extracted from real vocal samples. The advantage of the technique being used is that it’s possible to seamlessly morph between wavetables with proper phase alignment. This enables Pipa to continuously make transitions between pitch, formants, and dynamics, which is very useful in a musical context.

Features

• Unique crossover between a wavetable- and a granulating synthesizer
• Continuous morphing between formants, dynamics, and pitch
• Features both male and female voices
• Separate envelopes (with linked release time) and LFOs for formant, dynamics, gain, and pitch
• Two MIDI Assignable controllers (Ctrl1 and Ctrl2) for controlling formants, dynamics, pitch, and gain
• Legato mode with control over both pitch glide time and velocity glide time
• Voice spatialization
• Plenty of factory presets
• Room simulation + Reverb algorithm

Anatomy

• 1. Curve your enthusiasm
  A lot of Pipa’s expression possibilities lie in the refined controls over Gain, Pitch, Dynamics, and Vowel.
• 2. Swing Low, sweet LFO
  A powerful LFO section accompanies every Envelope.
• 3. Power cords
  Fine-tune the characteristics of the vocal instrument.
• 4. Cheerio Stereo!
  Widen your voice if you want, in several different ways.
• 5. A double room, please
  Room ambience + Reverb gives plenty of quick options.

Spinn

Four-band rotating modulation effect

Spinn is a four-band rotating modulation effect. It has similarities to, but doesn’t aim to replicate, a Leslie speaker (call it a spin-off if you like). Four rotors (one per frequency band) with individual speed controls, acceleration and deceleration times, adjustable size and modulation. Each band also has a velocity control, which will adjust the speed according to the band’s input level. Spinn also features custom amp modeling (clean or hot) and room simulation.

Features

• Four frequency bands
• Per-band controls for speed (fast / slow), acceleration, deceleration, size & modulation
• Input-sensitive velocity control for each band
• Stereo width control
• Three speed modes (fast, slow, off)
• Room simulation
• Amp simulation
• Adjustable crossover points

Anatomy

Skaka

Create shaker patterns as played by a human being

Skaka is a sample-based sequencer plugin for shaker percussion instruments. It has 12 slots, each with its own instrument, parameters (lots of them!) and pattern. We’ve built both the sequencer and the sampler from the ground, to optimize this instrument for these types of sounds. Each pattern contains events, with individual parameters like pitch, velocity (as in how fast the instrument is shaken), and envelope.

With full control over shuffle/swing amount, an advanced humanizer function, internal awareness of in- and out shakes (yes, they sound different), using grids divided into triplets/quintuplets/septuplets, timing fine-tuning and variable sequence lengths, Skaka can get very close to how a human percussionist would sound in almost any tempo without any use of degrading time stretching or similar techniques.

To top it off, there’s a nice reverb, a room simulator, and a high shelf filter.

Skaka comes with nearly 200 ready-made patterns covering most genres and styles.

Features

• 12 parallel slots, each with individual settings for instrument and pattern
• 18 different shaker instruments (Egg, Shaker, Tambourine, Caxixi, Single Shot, Ghungroos, Calabash & Seeds + much more)
• High-quality reverb plus room simulation

Rum

Plenty good room for everyone

Rum simulates different kinds of rooms – from acoustically treated studio booths to spaces found in an ordinary home. Think of this plug-in as if the audio source was recorded in stereo from the other side of the room, a common technique for recording acoustic instruments in order to breathe life into a dry sound source.

In addition to the ten multi-recorded rooms (with different mic settings and characters that can be cross combined), there’s an advanced stereo spread and modulation unit for even more tweakability.

This plug-in also comes with low cut and high cut filters, pre-delay (with tempo sync), a full set of factory presets, and a built-in ducker making it easy to tame transients on the wet signal.

Features

• 10 different rooms with 6 variants each
• 3 different types of stereo spread algorithms
• Modulation control
• Ducker (compression) for the wet signal
• Pre-delay with tempo synchronization

• 4. Output
  Same as Input, only last.

Pana

A pan knob for the human ear

Pana is a sophisticated stereo tool designed to let you do more elegant, natural audio positioning than what regular balance panning might accomplish.

Panning an audio signal can be done in several ways, where the most common is to alter the volume on one channel. This is a CPU efficient way (and many times the best) to achieve a sense of positioned audio. Almost every DAW and mixing console have this feature built-in.

Another way is to add a short delay to one of the channels – the Haas method. This renders a richer sound, but can also make a sound come off as somewhat unnatural.

A more elegant way is to apply a low pass filter to one of the channels. This maintains the audio energy on both channels, but at the same time makes it sound positioned. This works very well on transient-rich sounds like drums or other percussive instruments.

Pana uses both the delaying and filtering methods in combination, to achieve a more natural positioning. This makes Pana a very versatile tool for most types of sounds – and having these features in one plug-in makes for a great mixing experience. To top it all off, there’s also a crossover filter that makes it possible to leave the low end frequencies completely untouched, letting the bass remain fully centered, to prevent the mix from tipping over on one side.

Features

• Adjustable micro-delay, tuned after human head size (variable size)
• Adjustable low-pass filter on opposite channel
• Bass crossover filter, keeps high-energy low frequencies in the center (to prevent the mix from tipping)
• Quick button for checking mono compatibility
• Correlation meter for checking the phase
• Pan lock – for locking the pan knob when browsing presets
• A collection of ready-made presets

Anatomy

• 1. Pan the mic
  The pan knob in Pana is actually more of a macro controller, controlling multiple parameters for filter and micro delay.
• 2. Set your head size
  Binaural hearing (how humans perceive sound) is highly dependent on time difference between the ears, rather than sound level difference (as set by a normal pan knob). This time difference is bigger if you have a large head. To feel smarter, turn this knob to the right.
• 3. Keep your bottom in the middle
  To prevent the mix from “tipping over”, you can keep the low frequencies in the middle.
• 4. Steepen the curve
  Apart from time difference, binaural hearing also relies on the filtering of high frequencies on the opposite side of the sound source. This knob controls that.
• 5. Not just a phase
  For checking the mono compatibility, if your audio signals are in or out of phase.

Kuvert

A groundbreaking way of looping effects

Kuvert defines a whole new way of dealing with effects. In short, Kuvert allows you to draw five different envelopes. These envelopes control different effect parameters and can be drawn freely or onto a grid. The envelopes are looped, while the incoming audio isn’t (unless you’re feeding it looped material of course). This is a powerful & fun way of altering your sounds to reach a whole new level, sometimes not even recognizable! Thanks to the looping nature of the plug-in, it will fit very well into any musical context. One way of using it would be to revitalize any looped material (such as beats) within just a few seconds.

Features

• Volume envelope
• Low cut filter envelope (with resonance)
• High cut filter envelope (with resonance)
• “Glitch” envelope (alters timing)
• Delay send envelope (with tempo synchronized time, filter, and feedback)

Fosfat

Bring life to your drums and percussion

No drum deserves to be dull or lame. Fosfat will add bite and oomph to your drums or percussion (or any percussive sounds). It follows the dynamics of the incoming sound and adds tonal and noise textures to it. We think of it almost like an EQ, in the way it shapes the sound, but it adds instead of cutting or boosting. It’s perfect for when you have a nutrient-deficient recording (lacking bass or attack in a kick drum for example), or if you just want to add some extra sub or pleasant stereo fizz to any percussive sound.

In addition to the obvious option of using multiple instances of Fosfat across your drum tracks, the possibility to precisely dial in its trigger lets you pinpoint any frequency area or transient of your choice in recordings of whole drum kits or any drum loop sample. This gives you a very efficient and musical way of enhancing specific parts. Together with an oscillator, noise generator, low- and high-cut filters, stereo width, gain, and more, you have a beat-fertilizing hothouse letting your percussive sounds really grow and bloom.

Features

• Multiple audio-visualizations makes dialing in accurate settings very easy
• Controls for trigger frequency and width respectively
• Sine wave oscillator with optional pitch drop
• Noise with adjustable stereo width
• Attack and release controls
• Low cut and high cut filters
• Four instances of volume control
• Wave rendition
• Preset collection
• v1.1 Input mix

Anatomy

• 1. What’s your trigger point?
  Multiple visualizers make it a breeze to dial in how the trigger should act.
• 2. Toss in some boom
  The sub oscillator will bring body to any kick drum, but thanks to the many options you may very well find it useful for all kinds of sounds. Pitch drop included. Mic drop.
• 3. Add the kschh
  For additional bite, the noise oscillator is your friend. Envelope control, stereo width, and filter.
• 4. Just enough
  A balanced diet is essential in every aspect of drum shaping.
• 5. Ready, preset, go!
  While Fosfat is really easy to configure from scratch, we’ve included a bunch of presets to get you up and running in no time.

DAW Cassette

Bring your sound back to the golden age of cassette tapes (minus the tangle)

DAW Cassette brings back the magic era of the 1980s by emulating the sound of a tape deck. Saturation, distortion, noise, wobble, it’s all there. While there’s no real rational logic to it, the sound color gives us chills down the spines (or it might be the mullet haircut that tickles). Fresh. Choose your preferred level of cassetteness with the different controls for input/output gain, tape/motor/head quality, and tape/noise type. Now, look in the mirror and get stunned by your new mullet haircut.

New in v1.1

• Bleed amount (crosstalk between channels)
• Tape head tilt angle
• Noise gain and type
• Four-band peak EQ

Features

• Choose between three different tape types (Normal, Chrome, Metal)

  Single-control compressor for the whole package.

Knorr

Wake up your low end

Knorr is a plugin that adds intensity and edge to a monophonic low-frequency audio source (like a bass). The algorithm adds overtones to an existing sound in a way that isn’t possible with ordinary distortion or filtering.

The Knorr Algorithm

The underlying algorithm uses a combination of filtering, amplitude, and frequency modulation to process incoming audio. Knorr is developed with bass sounds in mind but can be used on any monophonic sound source as long as there is audio content available in the low mids (and below).

Features

• Unique algorithm that adds overtones to the original sound in a way that can’t be done using other bass-shaping methods.
• Three different intensity levels for the algorithm.
• X/Y-pad for finding your tone in no time.
• Good for all monophonic instruments within the bass – low mid range.

Anatomy

• 1. Bragging about dragging
  The handling of Knorr is almost painfully simple, simply drag the control along the X/Y-pad, and find your tone.
• 2. WYSIWYH
  (What You See Is What You Hear) – a visual representation of how the algorithm works.
• 3. How hard can it be?
  Three different intensity-levels of the algorithm.

Tines

A very playable electric piano in its own right

Tines emulates an electric piano. With internal effects like a stereo tremolo, a multiband distortion panel, and a subtle roomy reverb, Tines can sound like anything between a dreamy slick Rhodes to a nasty Wurlitzer (however, it is not designed to be a ”vintage” emulation but a modern and playable instrument). A fine-tuned velocity curve makes Tines a true joy to play on a MIDI keyboard.

Features

• Tremolo depth and speed (XY pad) with phase offset
• Variable decay time
• Variable Air (room) amount
• Multiband distortion

Anatomy

• 1. Wobble Depth / Wobble Speed
  Sets how each note should vibrate dynamically (like a Tremolo but on each note).
• 2. Phase / Decay
  Controls the phase offset between the left and right output channels. Decay sets a note’s decay time.
• 3. 3-band EQ
  If you need more, rearrange your song.
• 4. Fresh air
  A well-balanced room reverb + stereo spread.

Baervaag

FM synthesis for the masses

Baervaag is a fairly simple FM synthesizer with one carrier and one modulator. The oscillator waveforms can be modified seamlessly between a sine wave to a pure square wave with PWM (pulse width modulation).

Features

• FM Feedback, Filter, ADSR Attack, and Volume can be modulated by velocity
• Oscillators can be shaped between sine, square, and PWM
• One ADSR for each oscillator
• Controllable wobble factor that adds analogue unpredictability
• 50+ handcrafted presets created by professional musicians

Anatomy

• 1. Carrier Oscillator
  This XY pad controls pulse width modulation on the X axis and the wave shape on the Y axis.
• 2. Carrier ADSR
  Controls the carrier oscillator envelope. The attack time is optionally reactive to MIDI Velocity.
• 3. Modulator Oscillator
  This XY pad works like the Carrier Oscillator, but it also has a frequency multiplier button.
• 4. Modulator relative ADSR
  These sliders control the envelope of the Modulator oscillator and are relative to the Carrier ADSR. If all values of the sliders are in the middle, the Modulator envelope will be the same as the Carrier’s.
• 5. FX & Master section
  High-quality Delay, High-Quality Chorus, High-Quality Master Output Knob.

Syndt

A versatile, morphable polyphonic synthesizer

Syndt is a high-quality polyphonic synthesizer with a lot of possibilities. The oscillator waveform can be morphed between a pure sine to a pure square and supports altering of pulse width. Both the shape and pulse width can be modulated by two independent LFOs. With fine-tuned low-pass and high-pass filters combined with a separate filter attack setting (optionally based on velocity), this synth can create some raw and interesting sounds. The additional LFO can be shaped exactly as the oscillator and optionally controls filters, gain, and pitch (using a modulation wheel or just automatically). This LFO can be synchronized to an AUv3 host. Globally, there’s a nice stereo chorus, ping pong stereo delay (that also can sync to an AUv3 host’s BPM), and EQ.

Features

• 70+ professionally made presets
• XY pad based oscillator and LFO (PWM on the X axis and morphs between sine and square on the Y axis)
• Independent mini-LFO (sine only) for each axis of the oscillator XY-pad
• LP / HP filter with resonance
• LP Filter can be velocity sensitive
• LP Filter has an optional attack time
• LFO can affect LP filter, HP filter, gain level, and pitch
• LFO has an optional attack time
• LFO can be synchronized with an AUv3 host (AUv3 mode only!)
• Ping pong delay
• Stereo Chorus
• Three-band EQ
• Legato mode with glide speed parameter
• Pitch bend range

Anatomy

• 1. Oscillator
  This XY Pad sets the wave shape. X axis: pulse width (pure sine to the left, short pulse width to the right). Y axis: morphs between pure sine and square.
• 2. Mini LFO:s & Filters
  These sliders affect the oscillator’s values. These LFO only output pure sine waves. If the NOTE ON SYNC is ticked, the LFO will be reset on a new note. If not, it will keep on going. HP & LP Filters with separate resonance control.
• 3. LFO
  A powerful LFO that can affect filters, gain & pitch.
• 4. ADSR
  Controls the Attack time, Decay time, Sustain level, and Release time of the voice.
• 5. Special effects
  A very competent delay section, a chorus, EQ & more.

Pads

A pad synthesizer with soul

Pads is a thriving and organic pad synthesizer. It consists of a wavetable synth with a noise/grain generator and a high-cut filter. With a carefully developed ”wobbler” that detunes the waveforms and makes very small inconsistencies to several internal parameters and a nice-sounding chorus, this synthesizer is able to create some really interesting and non-statical pad sounds.

Features

• Filter, Attack, and Volume can be modulated by velocity
• Controllable grit/grain level, sampled from a real Hammond organ with a broken tone wheel
• Controllable wobble factor that adds analogue unpredictability
• 30 handcrafted presets created by professional musicians

Anatomy

• 1. Wave selector
  Select two waveforms, and morph between them by dragging the slider.
• 2. Wobble
  Adds some analog character with de-tune/filter inaccuracy.
• 3. Grain / Noise
  Drag horizontally to add white noise and upwards to add some more irrational noise/grain.
• 4. Filter / Envelope / Chorus
  Various toys in the toolbox for shaping the sound further.

Jussi

A golden throat at your fingertips

Jussi emulates male voice vowels in a unique way. Thanks to a set of powerful parameters, you can make Jussi sing anything from soft and airy choir-like vowels to hard and angry shouting. Formants are controlled by playing with different velocity, which makes it fun and easy to play using a MIDI keyboard.

Features

• ADSR with “Turn-in” and “Turn-out” option (Turn-in and Turn-out affects the pitch and maps it to attack and release)
• Voice character XY pad (Intensity and Narrowness)
• Legato mode (glides between notes and velocity levels)
• Legato Hold mode (polyphonic legato when using a sustain controller, consult the documentation for more info)
• Throat emulation XY pad (Grain and Tonality)

Anatomy

• 1. Character
  Drag the XY pad to alter tone intensity. The ‘intense’ axis controls the formant’s Q value and the ‘narrow’ axis the formant’s gain value.
• 2. Throat
  This XY pad controls grain-factor (Y-axis) and the tonality/noise-factor (X-axis).
• 3. Three legato modes
  Off: Like an ordinary polysynth. On: Normal legato mode (use XY pad to control). Hold: Smart polyphonic mode (see documentation for full info).
• 4. ADSR / Turn in & out
  The ADSR controls the volume envelope of a triggered note with an option to slide the pitch (Turn in/out).

Luxe

Suit up your mix with this elegant compressor / saturator / enhancer / enchanter

LUXE is an effect plugin that compresses and saturates an audio signal in a quite subtle but musical way. It is very useful for making a track “fit in the mix” and can be used with very good results on a drum bus, a vocal track, or anything in between.

LUXE is very easy to use – simply choose between the LUXE or FINESSE algorithms and set the desired processing level. Don’t be fooled by the modest control possibilities – under the hood is a very sophisticated set of parameters that will treat your incoming audio with great care, musicality, and warmth. The slider sets the amount of the effect. Under the hood, this parameter controls a set of internal (non-visible) parameters which makes LUXE an easy tool to use for quick results. The OUT knob sets the output volume and ranges from silence to +6 dB.

The alternate FINESSE algorithm offers a slightly different frequency response and also adds some edge to the internal saturation module.

Features

• Super-simple interface that lets you focus on more important stuff than knobs
• Two carefully developed algorithms that cover a wide array of uses
• Output for controlling the signal
• Low CPU footprint

Anatomy

• 1. Good mood / God mode
  Choose between the LUXE or FINESSE algorithm. Both are very nice.
• 2. Watch it squeeze
  Indicator that shows the amount of LUXE treatment that is given to your audio signal.
• 3. More or less
  How much goodness do you need?
• 4. Tune in, trim out
  Output level. Not Input level. Not Putin level.

Speldosa

For all the melodies you have in you

Speldosa is the result of a unique collaboration between Klevgrand and the Swedish artist Wintergatan/Martin Molin. Wintergatan has primarily worked in the physical world (the Marble Machine is probably the most astonishing example), while Klevgrand has performed its craft within the digital sphere. When these two worlds now meet, it results in a product that both visually and audibly inspires the creation of music that you didn’t know you had in you.

Speldosa (Swedish for “Music Box”) is the essence of the shared beliefs of Klevgrand and Wintergatan, and their fascination with minimalism. A simple melody played on a music box can contain an equal amount of emotional power as any symphonic work. There is something about the music box sound that never ceases to fascinate.

The instrument itself has been meticulously recorded by Wintergatan and transformed into a playable digital instrument plugin. It features four different models (Modern, Vintage, Antique, and Eternal = Reversed), two different Room models, and an algorithmic reverb.

Features

• Four different instrument models
• Two different room simulations
• Algorithmic reverb
• Simple UI
• Carefully recorded samples by Wintergatan

Anatomy

• 1. Four models
  If you want a fresh music box, try the “Modern” model. For a music box that has lived, try “Vintage” or “Antique”. For a music box going backwards, use “Eternal”.
• 2. Get two rooms!
  For placing the music box in a spatial context.
• 3. Space out
  When a room just isn’t enough.
• 4. Falling stars
  Dreamy visualization of the played notes. Useful for enjoyment, if your volume is down or if your memory is short.

Svep

Whatever your modulation needs may be, this plug-in will take care of it

Svep is a stereo modulation filter effect suitable for any sound. All parameters are easily editable in one screen and the clean and responsive user interface encourages creativity. Tweak it to produce anything from old-school phasers to subtle choruses.

Features

• Seamless hybrid between Chorus, Flanger & Phaser
