Prodyon has released Pneumo4, the 4-band distortion filter effect plug-in for Windows previously released as E-Fex Pneumo4.

PNEUMO4 is a fun way to add uniqueness to your loops or any audiomaterial by passing it to three filter layers/sequencers with variable cutoff and resonance and by putting a drive-unit and a pitchshifter on top!

With PNEUMO4 everything from subtile changes to radical sounddesctruction is possible. Use it to breath life into old loops or to mangle a vocal sequence with distortion and pitchshifting. All with no latency and fully automatable.

New in Pneuno4

• Incoming audio is split into two Bandpass Filters and one Pitch-Shifter.
• Each filter sequencer has cutoff, resonance and drive.
• Variable gliding for every Sequencer.
• Two FX-sends + volume and panning.
• Onboard effects: Delay and Flanger.
• LoFi/Signal degrader.
• 32 Presets included.
• Fully automatable.
• Comprehensive MIDI learn.

Pneumo4 is available to purchase as a VST effect plug-in for Windows PC for $20 USD.

Semerika has released FlangerHand, a free effect plug-in for Windows.

The FlangerHand plug-in is based on the idea of early flanging effect realised on a setup of up to 4 tape machines (1 source, 3 recorders) in the 60’s. The playback-head output from two recorders was mixed together onto a third recorder. The “flange” effect originated when an engineer would literally put a finger on the flange, or rim of one of the tape reels so that the machine was slowed down, slipping out of sync by tiny degrees. A listener would hear a “drainpipe” sweeping effect as shifting sum-and-difference harmonics were created. When the operator removed his finger the tape sped up again, making the effect sweep back in the other direction. This is where the FlangerHand takes the flanging back in the days of tape recorders and enhances it with new fresh features.

FlangerHand features

• Attack, releases, feedback (FB), delay time (D-TIME), main and wet controls.
• Inverse switch flips the starting point of the built-in effect unit from 0ms to the value of the Delay-Time parameter. As a result it fades out to the value of Delay-Time after releasing the Start-Button. In this case the effect volume fades out as usual.
• 5 filter settings, for which frequency the wet signal is going to be filtered by a 18db/oct High-Pass filter.
• Curve selection: linear, fast or slow fade-in curve.
• LFO with Sine and Triangle waveform, rate & amount controls (Amount of LFO fade in/out is according to the Attack, Release and Curve settings).

FlangerHand is available to download as a freeware VST effect plug-in for Windows PC.

MeldaProduction has released MFlanger and MMultiBandFlanger, two effect plug-ins for Windows and Mac.

MMultiBandFlanger is a powerful multiband flanger with adjustable shape. Where other flangers end, this plugin starts. It processes anything from guitar tracks to complete mixes with outstanding audio quality and overwhelming set of features.

MMultiBandFlanger features

• 1-6 fully configurable independent bands built on a perfectly transparent crossover with fully adjustable limits and input gains. Includes peak meters for all bands and the master.
• Continously adjustable oscillator shape – every oscillator in our plugins is defined by mix of predefined oscillator shapes, envelope from our MeldaProduction Envelope System (MES), and a step-sequencer. It is the most advanced approach for defining oscillator shapes in the world. In MMultiBandRingModulator the two oscillators can also modulate each other to generate even more complicated shapes.
• 4 global modulators – in each instance you can have up to 4 modulation full-featured LFO, that can modulate any parameter including other modulators! This way you can make the sound move in time, be less static and more interesting!
• Full randomization – using a single button you can generate completely new settings. By clicking the button you can walk through the billions of possible settings and find the best one for you!
• MIDI controllers with MIDI learn – you can map any parameter to any MIDI controller or MIDI keyboard and control it realtime or record and automate it.
• Sinc interpolation and high-quality upsampling – this plugin implements the most advanced technologies to provide the best audio quality.
• Automatic synchronization to host tempo – every oscillator (including modulators) in the plug-in can automatically synchronize to the host providing maximally natural sound not offending other tracks.
• Fully automatable depth.
• Global preset management – using a title button you can save your settings, which are shared on the computer, so you can easily access them in another songs.

MMultiBandFlanger is available to purchase as an effect plug-in for PC and Mac (VST/AU). It is sold separately and as part of the MTotalBundle and MCreativeBundle packages. During the month of February all prices will be discounted with a decreasing percentage for each next day in February (currently 46%).

MFlanger is a traditional flanger with adjustable shape.

MFlanger features

• Continously adjustable panning shape.
• Automatic synchronization to host tempo.
• Sinc interpolation and upsampling for maximum audio quality.
• Fully automatable.
• Global preset management – using a title button you can save your settings, which are shared on the computer, so you can easily access them in another songs.

MFlanger is available to download as a freeware effect plug-in for PC and Mac (VST/AU).

MeldaProduction has also announced updates for all its effect plug-ins.

We have fixed some more problems with Mac OS and Win64 and added some pretty interested features, such as ABCD morphing. The update is available via update manager, udpate installer and newest installer for Windows users. Mac OS users have to use the newest installer.

Mdsp @ Smartelectronix has released updates for a number of plug-ins.

MdspDuckVerb, MdspDuckDelay, AnalogDelay, and MdspFlanger are now all available as 32-bit Universal Binary for Mac VST.

Updated Mdsp plug-ins

• MdspDuckDelay, a delay whose output is compressed when there is a certain amount of signal present on its input. It allows to use a lot of delay on a voice without losing too much intelligibility.
• MdspDuckVerb, similar to DuckDelay but with a reverb. The reverb output is compressed when there is a certain amount of signal present on its input. It allows to use a lot of wet signal on a voice without losing too much intelligibility.
• AnalogDelay, consists of a delay unit followed by a 2nd order lowpass filter with saturation. The delay-time can evolve between 0 and max-delay which lets you be very accurate. You can also synchronise the delay to the tempo with different resolutions from 1/128 to 1 bar and control the way the delay-time is interpolated with the kind of interpolation and the time-constant.
• MdspFlanger, “another flanger” with the particularity that the LFO is synchronizable to the tempo with different waveforms (triangle, sin, square, triangle exponential, random…) and a smoothing factor for the waveform, so that you can achieve some new effects not available on classical flangers.

Mdsp effect plug-ins are available to download as freeware. Donations are appreciated.
