Re: Free Plug ins
Unfortunately I have not learned how to make VST plugins, but I have made some effects in the JS language for Reaper:

The "rectal" plugin is key to the "flvxxvm florvm fvzz" sound. Hear it on the solo of "Interesting Times" when it gets posted.
Now all my trade secrets are known.

Re: Free Plug ins
Cool, Jeff. I'll try it.
So, is this any different than when I have a certain FX chain that I do, then save it as a group so I can click 1 saved FX group to add it to a later track?
Personally, I want to know what Brad Sucks does on his vocals. I know I hear a pitch change very slightly delayed and very slightly mixed in that makes his main vocal fatter, but I can't quite put my finger on it. It may be multi pitches blended, not sure. But I know I like it!

Re: Free Plug ins
Maybe I'm over thinking it. Par for the course for me, lol. When I was doing the "out of it" bu vox thing, I thought I heard a higher pitch mixed in there on his voice. I can't remember now.

Re: Free Plug ins
If you just fiddle with a chorus effect you can get all sorts of sounds like that. It's possible that he also has a pitch-shift in there somewhere too though.

Re: Free Plug ins
It's different from that. Reaper has a built-in programming language called Jesusonic, that allows you to make plugins and/or modify the existing ones.Billy's Little Trip wrote: So, is this any different than when I have a certain FX chain that I do, then save it as a group so I can click 1 saved FX group to add it to a later track?
If you've ever messed with the "signal processing studio" in Winamp, it's almost exactly the same thing (remember Reaper and Winamp were written by the same dude).

Thanks, Ken. I'll play around with them. I already have the fuzz pedal. It's great for bass in a fast trashy song.

The plug-ins at the first link are Mac compatible, but the plug-in at the second link is Windows only, fyi.

Re: Free Plug ins
native instruments is giving away a free "kore soundpack" for the holidays, which is a bunch of sounds for their various synths. the thing is, you can download their kore player for free, which can play all these sounds and allows them to be modified quite a bit. if it works like regular kore 2, you can use this kore player as a standalone program, or as a vst or au plugin... windows or mac
downloading this should be a no-brainer!

Re: Free Plug ins
I've just found reViSiT, a sampler/sequencer in classic module tracker style which works as a VSTi plugin. It's free and you can even get the professional version (surround support, more bus magic) for free in exchange for usage data getting collected and uploaded anonymously for scientific research.

Re: Free Plug ins
Ooh! Too bad it doesn't seem to have a Mac version (at least, I can't seem to find any sort of system requirements which is usually a sure sign that it's Windows-only). Trackers are awesome for making drum tracks, although I outgrew them for everything else a long time ago.

Re: Free Plug ins
I found a few new things at Boxsounds.com including a drum replacer, synth, and vocoder. All free, windows VST.

Re: Free Plug ins
Now that I'm doing all my work on an Intel mac, does anyone know of anything which will wrap a Windows VST DLL in a CoreAudio AudioUnit? There are so many plugins I want to use!

Re: Free Plug ins
That drum replacer might be just what I need to save me some time. I only own one cowbell, but I've been wanting to do more with other percussion. I found a great group of real cow bell samples and tried them in my "diggin' out" song. I had to physically place each cow bell, because I used multi pitch bells. Pain in the ass! But I was very particular on how I wanted them. It looks like the drum replacer will at least help me with the basic placing, then I have them arranged in perfect time and I can add in between hits as needed. We shall see.ken wrote:I found a few new things at Boxsounds.com including a drum replacer, synth, and vocoder. All free, windows VST.

Hmm... quote from the site: "(Known problems - quite CPU hungry, can't guarantee the accuracy of the filter bank, not great with vocals.)"ken wrote:I found a few new things at Boxsounds.com including a ... vocoder.
What do you use a vocoder for besides vocals? This is a serious question, I'm curious because I haven't.

Re: Free Plug ins
Is a vocoder the effect so many pop songs use these days to give their vocals then weird synth sound?

Re: Free Plug ins
Sometimes. I think the effect you're thinking of is actually autotune on extreme settings. But here's a good example of vocoder in a pop song.Billy's Little Trip wrote:Is a vocoder the effect so many pop songs use these days to give their vocals then weird synth sound?
We were just talking about this last night in the chatroom. (Which, by the way, is still going strong, and you're all missing out if you don't check in every once in awhile.)
