Free VST Delay Plugins

It's delay time folks!

I was browsing the net earlier today trying to find a decent delay plugin, not only did i find it, i found 2 of them.
Simple Delay V2 and BTS Ping Delay V1.0.

Not only do they come as VST Plugins, but standalone aswell and that my friend is awesome.

Download Simple Delay V2 (1,3 mb RAR)
Download BTS Ping Delay (1,5 mb RAR)

Head over to Blechturmstudios to find more VSTs, and standalone versions of these two plugins.

Blockfish - Free VST Compressor
The BLOCKFISH compressor is a dynamics compressor capable of a compact and dense sound (hence the name). But unlike a lot of digital compressors, it does not 'squash' your signal that much.
The focus was to keep your music alive and let it breathe. It comes with a typical 'vca' circuit providing modern compression - best for drums and guitars - and a classical 'opto' unit that recreates the sound of old photo-electrical gain devices and has been optimised for vocal tracks. The basic parameters are easily set up but you have access to futher adjustments that can turn BLOCKFISH into a real 'killer' device.




Floorfish - Free VST Expander / noise gate
FLOORFISH is a classical gate/expander unit that was originally designed to make acoustic drum recording much cleaner. Especially seperately miked snares and toms often unveil a large amount of 'bleeding noise' if you compress them. The FLOORFISH can help to lower this noise floor. Unlike a typical 'noise gate', the signal is not cut off completely if you do not want it to.




Spitfish - Free VST De-esser.
SPITFISH serves as an easy-to-use de-esser. If you ever had problems with loud sibilants and s-like vocals, this device can help to make those nasty sounds much smoother. You can also apply it to other signals that might need some evening out within the upper frequency range, e.g. cymbals and crashes.
The whole character has been tuned to 'nice' and 'gentle'. It should be almost impossible to make your recordings sound unnatural within the normal operational range.

Free VST Plugins - Glitch VST

Free VST Plugins - Glitch VST

Many of you have probably heard of Aphex Twin before, especially his über-cool track titled, Windowlicker. (quite the jam, check it out) I always wondered how he managed to tweak and bend it like a madman.. no need to wonder anymore though.

Let me introduce, Glitch 1.3.05 - A great tool for all you glitchers, dubsteppers and breakerheads out there.



A short introduction from the creator:
Glitch features a pattern-based effects sequencer that takes the incoming audio, breaks it down into user-defined slices, and then applies different effects to each slice. The sounds it generates range from quite subtle to extremely bizarre, depending on how much you tweak the controls. Effects can either be programmed by hand to create specific desired patterns; chosen pseudo-randomly based on each effect’s probability level, with a user-defined seed value that optionally allows the same sequence of “random” effects to be chosen each time; or combined into a mixture of both methods to suite your own tastes.




See what it is capable of, Check out the Demo





Quite crazy, eh? Tweak away!

Free VST Plugins - VST Drums

What i liked about this free VST drum plugin was that it's able to play 16 and 24 bit sounds and that it comes in two versions, one light-weight (1 Mb).dll version and another 25 Mb msi file. The reason why it's bigger is simply because you get a drum sound library with it. (250 drumsamples!) This will come in handy if you use fruityloops for example, since FL's standard sound library pretty much sucks so it's a perfect and free way to step your game up a little. If you're planning to use your own sounds i'd suggest to download the lighter version.

a few specs:

Loads 16 and 24 bit samples

8 stereo channels with Low Pass, High Pass, Band Pass and Notch filter modes

Load an open hihat into channel 13+14. It will play as closed, foot and open hihat

Minimum System Requirements
Processor: Pentium 2/AMD K6
Processor speed: 800 MHz
RAM (Cache): 256 MB RAM
Operating system: Windows 98SE, ME, 2000 or XP
