Effects

Screenshot	Plugin	Description
	Amp Sim	Guitar and bass amplifier with up to 16x oversampling, mono/stereo routings, pre/post/triggered noise gate, booster pedal function, interactive inter-stage EQ bands, dynamic Depth and Presence bands, and maximizer.
	Bass Squeezer	Split-band compression and filtered distortion for that instant bathtub bass sound.
	Bus Comp	Submix bus oriented compressor with automatic/program-dependent release, fadeable stereo linking, Mid/Side mode, external sidechain input with high pass filter, instability noise, dynamic saturation, optional output hard clipping and dry/wet mix for parallel compression.
	Cabinet Sim	Simple cab sim with 5 burnt-in impulse responses, 4 for guitar and 1 for bass. Can not load IRs from file.
	Chug Thug	Simplified split-band processor to tame the low end of distorted guitars when palm muting.
	Consolidator	A set of 3 compressors with sidechain filter and stereo linking chained in a row, each with its own character. Has a dry/wet mix parameter for instant parallel/NY compression and Mid/Side mode.
	Correlation Meter	Inspect your song's stereo phase balance and find mono-problematic areas by watching an indicator go red.
No UI	DC Filter	Multi-channel capable and extremely narrow DC offset removal filter.
	DC Offset	Adds constant 0 Hz content to all channels of a signal and shifts waveforms up or down, probably only useful to test DC filters.
	EQ 560	Classic American 10-band graphic console equalizer. Limited flexibility, fast and streamlined workflow. Uses 2x oversampling for accurate high frequency filter curves, adds some character.
	Filthy Delay	Stereo delay with multiple routings (currently: stereo, inverted, ping-pong, mono), plus optional filters, boostable saturation and downsampling degradation in the feedback path.
	Foldback Distortion	Folds waves between 0 and an adjustable ceiling, very harsh and nasty distortion.
	Gate/Expander	Several channel routings, external sidechain, sidechain filter, fadeable stereo linking, hysteresis, and it can be switched between gate (fades to silence) and expander (fades to defined volume) modes.
	Hard Clipper	Simple and effective, chops away peaks above an adjustable ceiling volume, call it cold transistor distortion if you must.
	Impulse Generator	Generates a 1-sample impulse when triggered, for use when sampling devices to IRs.
	Interpolated Noise	Various flavours of pleasingly natural and organically chaotic noise created with the help of various interpolation methods.
	Knee Clipper	A clipper neither purely hard nor purely soft, and yet a unification of both.
	Mic Combiner	Utility to facilitate the process of merging two mono microphone signals into one. Processes each microphone signal individually, allows to set a balance/mix between both microphones, and sums them to mono. Can adjust timing between signals.
	M-S Fader	Converts a stereo source to a Mid/Side signal and then fades between 100% Mid and 100% Side signal, or a mix of both. Great to remove the center signal, or to focus in on it.
	Phase Scope	Visualizes the stereo field of a signal, also commonly known as Goniometer, Vector Scope or Lissajous. Selectable visualization colour and optional freeze-on-pause function.
	Reference Noise	Provides various noise profiles, filtered or plain, to use as target reference for spectral/visual mixing.
	Ring Mod	Multiplies the input signal with a carrier signal, which can lead to all sorts of warbly modulation and distortion effects.
	Signal Crusher	Sample rate changes, lost sample reconstruction, bit truncation, bit dithering... it's all in here.
	Sine Clipper	A clipper that uses the smoothness of the sine wave to tame loud signal peaks.
	Soft Clipper	Increasingly lowers signal peaks the closer they get to an adjustable ceiling volume, call it warm tube overdrive if you must. Has up to 16x oversampling, DC blocker and optional final (non oversampled) hard clipping stage for true 0 dBfs output.
	Stereo Bleed Remover	An attempt at removing unwanted bleed between channels in a stereo signal.
	Stereo Checker	Displays the inter-channel relation of a two-channel input signal.
	Stereo Pan	Utility that implements various standardized pan laws, as well as some custom methods by me.
	Telephone	Makes vocals sound like they're coming through a phone receiver, also worth slamming on drums.
	Test Signals	A collection of 13 different test tone and noise generators in one plugin, 14 if you count silence. Can have a different generator on each channel, can output both or just one channel, can sum both channels.
	Track Comp	A low-CPU and ultra-flexible compressor, with everything from peak/RMS detection over feed-forward/-back modes, stereo linking and channel setups to automatic gain compensation and dynamic saturation.
	Volume Range Trim	Fader to non-destructively alter a signal's volume within a specific range (+/- 6, 12, 24, 48 dB), gives finer control when automating volume. Auto-adapts to track's channel count.
	Volume Trim	Simple fader to alter a signal's volume, useful for gain-staging between plugins. Auto-adapts to track's channel count.
	Wave Scope	Waveform display that can visualize various mono/stereo channel streams as Decibels, signed or absolute samples. With fadeable colours and freeze-on-pause function.

(There may be more in the future)

Installation

• The important stuff is in the plugins folder, so download what you want from there, or get the full release here.
• If you don't know what to do with these files, watch the Reaper Blog tutorial on how to install JS plugins.

This is just a fun project for me, I do this on the side to waste time or template C++ code, so don't expect too much of an effort. But if you find any bugs, or if you have any suggestions for improvements, feel free to report them in the issue tracker, I'll have a look there every now and then.

Have fun! <3
