Blue Cat's FreqAnalyst is a free spectrum analyzer plug-in that lets you monitor the spectral content of your audio signal in real time. This plug-in has been designed to provide extreme smoothness and high resolution for both time and frequency: unlike most spectrum analyzers, Blue Cat's FreqAnalyst is able to display continuous variations even with a very high frequency resolution, thanks to its unique smooth interpolation algorithms. http://www.bluecataudio.com/Products/Product_FreqAnalyst/

span-large1024

SPAN is a real-time “fast Fourier transform” audio spectrum analyzer plug-in for professional music and audio production applications.  For the most part it was derived from Voxengo GlissEQ dynamic parametric equalizer and reproduces its spectrum analysis functionality.

SPAN provides you with a very flexible “mode” system which you can use to setup your spectrum analyzer preferences.  You may specify Fourier block size in samples, FFT window overlap percentage, spectrum's visual slope.  Beside that you can choose to display secondary spectrum of a desired type (e.g. real-time maximum, all-time maximum).  Spectrum can be smoothed out visually for an easier examination. SPAN supports multi-channel analysis and can be set to display spectrums from two different channels or channel groups at the same time.  Spectrum's color can be chosen to taste. SPAN also features output level metering with adjustable ballistics and integration time, K-metering (including calibration K-metering).  SPAN displays level metering statistics, headroom estimation and clipping detection.  Correlation metering is available as well. http://www.voxengo.com/product/span/

sph-analyzer

Spectrum Analyzer is a real-time spectrum analysis plugin. The idea was to create an old-fashioned tool reminiscent of classic hardware analyzers of the antecedent century. Another unique (and quite experimental) feature of the plugin is its detached spectrum display window, freely resizable independently of host application capabilities.

sg_0

A scrolling sonogram for frequency analysis. SG-1 gathers some features which are usually isolated in other sonogram tools. It works in real-time. It continues analyzing in the background, and only stops when you freeze it. Both in frozen or running mode, every time you click or drag within the sonogram area, frequency and amplitude rulers highlight the values corresponding to that point. A little LED-like screen shows you in detail analysis information and parameter modifications, or the transport position when idle. http://ag-works.net/plugins.sg1.htm

SignalAnalyzer1

Signal Analyzer is a combined oscilloscope/spectrum-analyzer plugin for inspecting signals in realtime in the time- and frequency domain. The oscilloscope's refresh rate may be synchronized to the period of the incoming signal to stabilize the plot of periodic waveforms. Both views may be frozen and the frozen display can be exported into a .png file. http://www.rs-met.com/freebies.html

Vamp audio analysis plugin system

vamp-overview-webscale

The Vamp audio analysis plugin system Vamp is an audio processing plugin system for plugins that extract descriptive information from audio data — typically referred to as audio analysis plugins or audio feature extraction plugins. Just like an audio effects plugin (such as a VST), a Vamp plugin is a binary module that can be loaded up by a host application and fed audio data. However, unlike an effects plugin, a Vamp plugin generates not more audio, but some sort of symbolic information. Typical things that a Vamp plugin might calculate include the locations of moments such as note onset times, visualisable representations of the audio such as spectrograms, or curve data such as power or fundamental frequency. http://www.vamp-plugins.org/

Philteroid VSTfx

philteroidPhilteroid is a dual filter effect, suitable for use on various type of rhythmic sounds (i.e. drums, bass, synth, guitar). Beside pure filter work, Philteroid is also capable of FM, AM and saturation, and can transform plain sound to one with unique character and interesting texture.

Various filter types, from basic (LP, BP, HP, BR) to uncommon ones, can be obtained with filter type blend control and parallel/serial routing of filters. Filters can be synced in eleven predefined harmonic offsets between filter frequencies and modulated internally by audio signal (FM), ADSR envelope, envelope follower, LFO; or trough external input.

Philteroid is also armed with various amplitude modulation sources and can be used as envelope sharper, expander, noise gate, ring modulator.

KeroVee is a free Pitch Corrector/Autotune Effect VST plugin. It gives you an Autotune effect aka “T-Pain” Effect, it’s similar effect to the vocoder, but more robotic.

You can use it with any VST Host application. KeroVee can also mix between to different sources. You basically just need to insert KeroVee to the audio track you want to apply the effect and then route the MIDI signal to it if you want to use the “TuneTo MIDI” function.

Available for Windows/VST.

Psycho Phaser – VST

$

PsychoPhaser432x388 (1)Psycho-Phaser is a free VST plugin specialized in multiple phasing effects. This effect works by routing the audio input signal through a chain of allpass filters and mixing that filtered audio signal with the original signal.

An allpass-filters lets all audio frequencies pass without any attenuation or amplification, but introduces a frequency dependent phase shift. When the filtered audio signal is mixed with the original signal, there will be notches in the frequency content of the resulting signal at all frequencies at which the phase-shift in the filtered signal is some odd integer multiple of 180 degrees.

In contrast to a traditional flanger effect, these notches are not distributed at integer multiples of some fundamental frequency along the frequency axis – so they have no harmonic relationship. This is the most distinguishing feature between phasers and flangers (which are often regarded as somehow similar).

If the characteristic frequencies of the allpass-filters are modulated over time (via an LFO), these notches slide back and forth on the frequency axis – this is phasing.

Psycho-Phaser provides two independent allpass-chains for the left and right audio channel, each of which has its own, tempo-synchronized LFO.

notomizern0t0miz0r is a VST plugin that randomizes MIDI data, it receives the MIDI data inside a VST compatible host and then processes (randomizes) the pitch of the notes of the MIDI data stream according to pre-defined user parameters, it then sends the data to a MIDI-out channel, inside or outside the VST host.

This is useful for example if you do not have a faulty sequencer or an analog modular synthesizer with a sequencer option at hand. For 80s style electronic dance basslines for example, unpredictable randomness is mandatory.

n0t0miz0r is available as a free VST plug-in for Windows.

Soopa Doopa Loopa 1_2_0
Soopa Doopa Loopa is a VST tool for creating and mangling loops taken in real time from a live audio source (or VST instrument) feed . Think of it as the ultimate looping delay pedal or Frippertronics on steroids.

You can make up to eight loops and independently mess with their effects, shift their timing, alter their speed, reverse them, chop them into bits and then mix them together. Loopa’s perfect synchronisation means that you never have to worry about loops drifting out of time with each other, even during tempo changes.

If you’re into gigging, you want to spend maximum time playing your solos and throwing shapes for your audience – not sat at a screen looking like your chimping your emails – so there is also a special automation system designed to let you program moves in advance, so you can leave Loopa to do its stuff while you get on with showing off.

The zip file contains stand-alone and VST versions, plus a really good pdf User Guide – and the software itself has its own built in help system to get you up and running quickly.
