WARNING: The Plug-Ins on this site have been developed in 2007 and are provided 'as-is'. There will be no updates to deal with the fact that support for rendering a 'default' GUI in host applications is on the way out or at least seriously broken in modern audio applications.
Please also note that the VST Plug-Ins are know to NOT work in ProTools using the VST wrapper!
The OS X versions are not notarized by Apple and will not work from macOS 10.14.5 onwards.
You can't have a hardware box for everything.. so sometimes it just comes handy to have a Plug-In that simulates what the big names are doing with dedicated hardware. To avoid spending big money the Plug-Ins below can be downloaded and used for free. To keep development costs down they don't use fancy user interfaces. What counts is the sound!
If you have further questions or trouble using the Plug-Ins, check the FAQ!
ADT - Artificial Double Tracking
The ADT technique was developed at Abbey Road Studios by engineers recording the Beatles in the 1960s. To free John Lennon from having to sing everything twice for real double tracking they came up with an artificial replacement: they sent the original signal to another tape machine and re-recorded it. Due to the physical distance between record and playback heads the new signal was delayed. The length of the delay depends on the tape speed (the slower the tape is running the longer it takes for the signal to travel from the record to the playback head). However, due to the machine's (small amounts of) Wow and Flutter the delay time was not fixed but varied slightly, giving an additional chorus-like effect.
The ADT Plug-In takes a mono input signal and creates a stereo output. The original input signal will be output on one channel, the new ADT signal on the other. Blending the two is also possible. The Plug-In allows to control the delay time (10 - 50ms), Wow and Flutter (both with intensity in % and frequency). All values are based on the technical data of the tape machines that was originally used to create this effect. Take a look at a screenshot.

Poor Plate - stereo plate reverb
Software Wow & Flutter Meter
Plate reverbs have been among the first devices for artificial reverberation. The first digital reverb units by EMT and Lexicon tried to model plate reverbs instead of real spaces. The Poor Plate is a Plug-In for all those people who can neither afford a real plate nor one of the classic digital units.

Meet Wow Control: a new audio plugin entirely focused on the weird & wild ~modulations~ of analog tape and other less-than-perfect analog playback devices. In developing Wow Control, we set out to accurately capture the essence of three tape machines spanning three decades: every noise, every wobble, & every harmonic. The plugin that has resulted is the most comprehensive analog tape model we’ve ever heard.
- Extremely high quality wow & flutter (+ HQ Mode for even better performance)
- Massive pitch range with expressive shape controls
- Controllable speeds, beat-syncing, phase, & stereo phase
- Analog tape section with three modes: 15 IPS, 7.5 IPS, Cassette
- Advanced, meticulously-modeled magnetic tape coloration & saturation
- Random section for more complex, nonuniform modulations (Advanced)
Getting to know Wow Control
Wow Control expands and improves upon the wow & flutter section from the classic Vulf Compressor — bringing more expressive shape controls, beat-syncing, and an extensive randomization section — available in the expanded Advanced controls — for creating complex and unpredictable modulation effects.
Free vst musicradar. At its extreme settings, it will bend and distort anything that it touches. Used gently, however, it can breathe a little life or movement into individual mix elements or bring color and richness to an entire master. Install vst plugin fl studio 12. Case in point: Wow Control was used on almost every master of Vulfpeck’s The Beautiful Game.
You can keep your trusty 424 around if you want, but you no longer need to if you own a copy of Wow Control.

Breaking down the details
Turntables & Tape Machines
Anyone who’s put on a warped record has heard their music bend and wobble as it moves unevenly under the stylus. Similarly, if a tape player reel, capstan, or pinch-roller doesn’t spin smoothly (or isn’t perfectly round) the tape will speed up and slow down under the repro head. The speed of this movement directly correlates with the pitch of the audio: moving the media too quickly sounds high pitched, while moving it too slowly sounds low pitched. These continuous pitch changes, exhibited by all turntables and tape machines (to some degree), are called wow & flutter.
Double Dose
One of Wow Control’s coolest features is the ability to double — and even triple — sounds in interesting ways. Consider this drum loop, played on a drum machine. It’s from the Funklet.
Now what if we select the “Two Diff Drummers” preset on Wow Control? Here’s the result — two different drum machines, one in each ear. Or go for Three Diff Drummers — that one includes some randomization of the wow’s speed, meaning the pitch goes up and down, all of its own accord.
Want to go wilder? Crank the “Amount Multiplier” to 64x and see what happens. But remember it’s random, so if you bounce that sample again, you’ll get something different. What if you crank the multiplier to 128x and all the analog controls to 200%?
These sounds really just scratch the surface of what’s possible with Wow Control. Want to learn more? Explore the manual. Think you’ve found a cool sound or setting? Send us a quick message.
