Audio Plugins
I've been a software developer by day for my entire adult life and recently started learning how to make audio plugins to smash together my two main hobbies. It's been really fun! All of these plugins are free and open source, please download and share them if you find them useful! All of the source code for my plugins can be found on my Codeberg account.Sawbox - Supersaw Synth
download - source code
Make supersaws lightning-fast! Swiftly and simply summon satisfying synthesized sounds! Nine oscillator supersaw made of three groups of three oscillators. Control the detune of the oscillator groups with the Spread value, and the overall detune using the Detune knob. There is also a LFO that causes a subtle detune drift over long periods for that little bit of extra movement.
Satisfy - Bus Saturator
download - source code
A bus saturator which increases perceived "energy" at the expense of "clarity" while keeping overall peak volume roughly the same. Here's an off-on test to hear it in action:
Blaster - Bass Synthesizer
download - source code
Happy Hardcore bass sounds tend to follow a really similar formula, and while I've gotten pretty quick at making it in various plugins I wanted to make something that was focused on doing that as quick as possible. Blaster is what I came up with! I'm regularly using it in my songs now.
Stutter - Trance Gate
download - source code
Everybody has to start somewhere and my first VST project was Stutter, a trance gate with a step sequencer. I use it sometimes for really simple trance gate needs, but as with most learning projects it's usefulness is limited.
