Yurt Rock has released a new audio plugin which puts eight decades of drum sound on a single timeline.
Move the puck from 1950 to now and the whole chain follows — the console, the room, and the format the record was heard on. This isn’t a preset browser with era names on it. The year is the instrument.
Decade lets you move along the timeline to deliver the tone, saturation, filtering, compression, transient shaping and room of your chosen year.
Decade features
- 120 presets across eight decades: Each one sits on the map where it belongs, so you can see the era before you hear it.
- Six playback formats: Wow, flutter, crackle, rumble, dropouts, bit reduction, disc skip, spectral holes and loudness normalisation, each modeled for its own era rather than as one generic “lo-fi” knob.
- A real rack: Take any parameter off the map and set it yourself, then hand it back with a click. Re-order the signal path by dragging.
- Live analysis: Your dry signal drawn against the processed one, so you can see exactly what the decade took away, plus the measured tail after every hit.
- Session-friendly: Saves with your DAW project, works fully offline after activation, use on up to 3 machines.
Available for Windows and macOS in VST3, AU and AAX plugin formats, Decade is on sale for the intro price of $49 USD, and Indie Rock Drums Vol. 1 is included for free for a limited time. The plugin is also part of Vault membership.
