windows only, done with synthedit. One knob, it's late, tired. Used on master, overall mix is crisper somehow, although some bass goes away. No worries, use a bass boost EQ after to put back what gets taken out, and your bass is back and somehow clearer.

Hey Mike,

Mind getting a little more technical on what this plug is actually doing?

mikemc · Post by **mikemc** » Thu Jan 25, 2007 5:47 pm

little more now that I'm a little more awake:

what it does for each of L and R:

1- Splits everything at 333Hz with HP and LP filters set at that..

2- Then, it splits the LP

3- It inverts one half of that split LP.

3- Then it delays that inverted LP a very tiny bit.

4- Then it mixes (3) back in with the undelayed LP (2) *but criss crosses the channels* for the lows

5- Then it mixes that which is mostly L back with itself, and that which is mostly R back with itself.

6- Then it mixes ALL of that in with the original input signal, the wet/dry of that mix is controlled by the single knob.

Oh, so it's a Transmogrifier... why didn't you just say so?

the net effect is that it cancels out some of the unwanted resonant bass/low mids in the middle, but not so you can't selective 'lift' the wanted bass back up into the mix with post EQ.

you made a plug that is basically a sonic maximizer with some phasing on the lows.

nice mike!
but can you top my bitchen max patch that took me a week to make?
you press the space bar and an oscillator goes BEEEEEEP!
Ableton should hire me, with my programming skills.

Seriously though that sounds really cool, kudos.

That, officially, will be my april fools prank this year - "hey mister dj, try out this fancy new software that you run along side ableton Live. It's great!"

Hits space.
