SubFilter II - Subsonic  Filter - FREE!

SubFilterII is an expanded version of the original SubFilter plug-in with a wider range of cutoff frequencies.  SubFilterII has a selectable cutoff slope of -12, -24 or -36dB/Octave and a cutoff frequency variable from 10Hz to 1KHz.  The filter is extremely useful for removing thumps, bumps and low frequency rumble noise from your audio.  The filter has 2 controls: cutoff slope and cutoff frequency.  The passband is flat (Butterworth filter) and has unity gain.  In addition to audio cleanup tasks, SubFilterII can be used with HyperFilter (below) to create "am radio", "megaphone" and other classic sounds.

Download SubFilterII for FREE here.  This plug is fully functional and has no timeout or other restrictions.  Download the file SubFilterII.dll and save it to your VST plug-ins folder.  For proper operation this plug-in must be used as an INSERT on channel, group or master outputs (the processor will produce no output when used as a SEND effect).


"Telephone" - Telephone Audio Emulator - FREE!

Telephone is a simple yet highly realistic telephone audio simulator.  This plug-in uses very steep, 6 pole high-pass and low-pass filters to create the telephone audio bandwidth of 350Hz - 3KHz.  A granulizer reduces the resolution to 8 bits just like the phone company!  Works with both mono and stereo signals.

HyperFilter - Steep Slope High-Cut  Filter - FREE!

HyperFilter is a high frequency filter with a selectable cutoff slope of -12, -24 or -36dB/Octave.  The filter is extremely useful for removing hiss, crackles and even sampling noise from your audio.  The filter has 2 controls: cutoff slope and cutoff frequency.  The cutoff frequency is variable from 1KHz to 20KHz.   The passband is flat (Butterworth filter) and has unity gain.  The cutoff frequency upper limit is automatically adjusted depending on sample rate (for example, upper limit when used on 22.05KHz sample rate signals is 10KHz).

SIR Delay Compensator - FREE!

SIR Delay adds a fixed 8960 sample delay to the audio path to compensate for the latency of the popular SIR Convolution Reverb in hosts that do not support plugin delay compensation.   This plugin allows the use of the popular SIR Convolution Reverb as a send effect in hosts such as Cubase SE and many others.  To use this compensator simply insert the plugin in all channels or groups where the SIR reverb is NOT being used.  This will time-align (delay) these channels so they are in time with the channel(s) being processed through the SIR Reverb.

SimpleQ - Treble/Bass EQ Control - FREE!

SimpleQ is a FREE plug-in that emulates the simple Bass/Treble tone controls found on stereos and smaller mixing consoles.   While simple in operation, this plug in is extremely useful.  SimpleQ is a "shelving" equalizer that can boost or cut the high or low frequencies by up to 10dB.

Saturator - Analog Tape Saturation Emulator - FREE!

The Saturator is a FREE plug-in that emulates the non-linear curve of analog tape in saturation.  The Saturator can add up to 6dB of gain to the signal to push it into overdrive whereby soft clipping begins.  When used properly the Saturator can add that "analog sound" to your tracks or can be used to boost low level signals giving them an "analog edge".

Flipper - Audio Polarity/Phase Inverter - FREE!

Flipper is a simple little plug that does an important job.  It takes the input signal, in either mono or stereo, and inverts the polarity (a.k.a., "Phase Invert") just like the "Phase Invert" button found on most larger mixing consoles.  If your mono or stereo tracks sound unusually thin it could be because of phase problems.  You can flip the phase of a wave file using wave editors but once you do you're more or less stuck with the result.  Instead, INSERT  Flipper into your mixer channel INSERT and try it out in real time.  Flipper can also be used to purposely generate out of phase signals or as a simple "Vocal eliminator" on stereo mixes (flip the phase of one side and mix the stereo tracks together in mono - whatever was centered in the mix will disappear).
