Air was a precursor to Energy, pioneering the techniques for that type of frequency-hyping. Anyone who owned Air got crossgraded to Energy for free, because it was just more of the same with more sophistication and controllability. Air has four controls: a 22K tap, a 15K tap, and an 11K tap, plus a ‘Filters Q’ […]
PafnutyDemo is an AU universal binary Chebyshev filter for harmonics 2-13! CPU efficient. Tone shaping impossible to do with EQ—can be used normally, or inverted, to single out unwanted textures and subtract them. This thing’s been on the market for years and years and still confuses everyone. I’ll try to explain, since we’re doing a wordpress-style […]
Drive is one of the early Airwindows saturation plugins. It’s edgier and gutsier than Density, which tends to sound really smooth. Like Density, it’s got a set of controls which let you do stuff beyond simple overdrive: split the signal into dry and wet, highpass the dry before distorting it for extra grind and energy, and […]
Slew is just the slew clipping section of what’s in Channel. It’s a very old, very simple form of processing, but bear in mind that sometimes this sort of DSP, which touches the audio very very lightly, has real strong points. You don’t always gain by making stuff more sophisticated. This is a freebie, so you […]
