IVH Audio has introduced a new audio plugin inspired by the legendary Big Muff Pi fuzz pedal from Electro-Harmonix.
e::Pi includes 5 famous models with high-quality analog modeling technology: Big Apple, Raging Bull, Square, Soviet Green, and White Army.
We achieve a new level of analog modeling by integrating cutting-edge modeling technology with machine learning. Traditional methods, while advanced, require immense processing power to model the entire circuitry of a device, putting a strain on your computer.
Instead of capturing the entire circuit, neural networks learned the behavior of “nonlinear” elements, which are essential for capturing the unique character of each sound. Employing smaller neural networks focused solely on these key elements achieves stunning accuracy with a significantly reduced CPU load.
e::Pi features
- Combine the “Tone” and “Sustain” of different models.
- Bypass “Tone” and “Sustain” individually.
- Choose between two circuit conditions: “Vintage” and “Modern.”
- Two mod modes for added flexibility:
- Mod I: Swaps the processing order of clipping and tone; processes tone first and then clipping.
- Mod II: Adds tone before clipping and then again after; the clipping is sandwiched between two tone processes.
- Switch between a high-quality neural network and a lighter neural network.
Regularly priced $39 USD, the e::Pi plugin for Windows and Mac (VST3, Au and AAX) is on sale for only $9 USD for the first 500 customers. A free e::Pi Lite edition with “Big Apple” and “NYC Original” models is available to download.
