    Noise Invader - A new freeware VST Noise Gate I've just developed

    Hi guys. I was reading some discussions here on Reddit last week about VST plugins, amp sims and all the great freeware plugins available. However, someone noted that there is a distinct lack of good free noise gate plugins. As an audio developer myself, I decided to fill this gap in the market...

    Best deal on an electric kit for running SD2.0?

    I am currently in the process of converting an old Pearl Export into an electronic kit. I won't recommend you do that unless you have 3 weeks of spare time, lots of tools and like to DIY :), but here are some thing I've learned in the short time since I decided to get an E-kit: Roland is great...

    Electronic Music: VSTi of choice?

    Dimension Pro - My favorite ROMpler. It has all the "standard" sounds, orchestra, piano, brass, organs, and also a boatload of great synth sounds, pads, atmospheric sounds, SFX and more. I like it more than Sampletank, Nexus and all the other romplers. Sylenth1 - The best sounding synth out...

    Using a stomp pedal as a DI box?

    Actually, not necessarily. For the first time in many years I was let down by my trusty M-Audio Delta 44, turns out the input impedance isn't much over 50k :( I tried plugging a Proco Rat clone direct into the card. It worked OK but there was a noticable drop in high frequencies, enough that I...

    Electric drumkit help...

    Most modules have midi out, I'm guessing this one's not an exception. Only thing you need is a midi interface, connect it to the module and that's that. Midi recorded. I picked up a USB to MIDI in/out interface for 2 dollars on eBay last year, and it works like a charm. Midi latency is usually...

    ProCo Rat sim plugin (free)

    Yeah. I'm going to start working on this again very soon (been working on a tube amp design in the meantime, as well as a Marshall Shredmaster sim :)) Basically, I opted to develop this all in Java becase: a) development time is cut in half, or even into thirds (compared to C++) b) It can...

    ProCo Rat sim plugin (free)

    very close. I'm fine-tuning the clean channel, and then I have to finish up some user interface components (I had to build custom Java components for the knobs and more :))

    ProCo Rat sim plugin (free)

    Crap. Ok, thanks for giving it a try, I'll guess I need to do more debugging :) I tried it on my computer with Ableton, Cubase 3, Reaper and EnergyXT, so I'm guessing its a java problem

    ProCo Rat sim plugin (free)

    Hey guys. I've just updated my "Rodent" vst plugin, a simulation of the ProCo Rat. It's based on a development package I'm working on (I call it jDSP.lib), it implements VST plugins in Java for rapid development (the first version of Rodent was written in 4 hours from a schematic)...

    What gate plugin for guitars?

    Not a gate, but try the Noise Reduction plugin in the Cortex, it's incredibly powerful and leaves no artifacts, just less noise http://ncryptoworkz.blogspot.com/2008/07/cortex-guitar-amp.html
