KVR DC: URS Triple Cheese

Urs Heckmann’s entry for the KVR Developer Challenge is Triple Cheese, a VSTi which he describes as a luscious cheesy comb synthesizer.

Triple Cheese mainly uses various forms of comb filters (chromatically tuned delays) to create or modify sound.

Triple Cheese has 3 modules which can generate sound or manipulate it. Each module has 8 modes (i.e. Pluck, Bowed and Noise) to create different sounds and several modulation options are available.

Some cheesy effects are built in as well to spice up the sound a bit.

• Chorus1: A wide chorus with pretty long center delay
• Chorus2: A bit narrower and bettwer suited for percussive material
• Flanger: A chorus with short center delay, suited for flanging (feedback!)
• Phaser: Classical out-of-phase phaser effect
• Delay1: Stereo delay synced to host tempo in quarters
• Delay2: Stereo delay synced to host tempo in eighth notes
• Delay3: Ping Pong delay based on quarters and dotted eigths
• Reverb: A cheesy reverb based on only 4 delays

Triple Cheese comes with a PDF manual and 152 (if I counted them right) presets to explore the possibilities of this synth.

Here’s a small loop done with 9 instances of Triple Cheese (that’s a whole lot of cheese!) and standard FL Studio fx.
