Very good of people to mention these. One which I've picked up on; mentioned on the forums previously by Max and others - definitely worth a download is Ohmforces frommage. And the stratergy works. I'm very tempted by their product line some excellent stuff. So there's one recommendation Another Nick.
Thanks anyway for the site posts. Best wishes.

I don't think Frommage is available as a free download anymore. They have a demo, or you get it as part of their bundles, but not on it's own. Shame - it's great.

If you are looking for free software for multitracking and the like on a Mac go with Ardour(http://www.ardour.org)

Also with ardour you get access to the LADSPA plugins from Linux, while not being great they are pretty well all free(I cant think of any for pay, though I dont think anything is stopping them from releasing commercial plugs) and some of them are useful. The packages for them I believe can also be found from ardour's website, going through the download page.

Haven't tried the Mac versions yet but some of those plugs are available for PC and I've used them... The Digitalfishphones plugins are excellent. As is Izotope's Vinyl. Smartelectronix offerings are variable but mostly very good and useful suff.

It's a good link for me but i'm on OS9!!!

Anyone got any? Ive got my DP plug-in's, and a couple of free VST one's the Macs previous owner left with me (he went to PC - the traitor!), tho I cant run them as I dont have a wrapper.

Speaking of VST wrappers, are there any free ones of those knocking about for OS9?

Seriously - absolutely awesome plugins.

Decimator is good, so is the betabugs(sp?) chorus - really instant. And actually daHornet is kind of fun for a vi.

Been using Fish Fillets for a while, top stuff.

Spent a week trying a few new ones off this site- so far I'm loving the Wavebreaker (insane/experimental distortion effects); the Supatrigga (slices audio and rearranges/reverses/slows it); just started using Meringue (delay/feedback effects). They've all inspired me to write some quite different-sounding stuff: can't really ask for more than that...

Going to check the Chip32 and Decimator next...

Anyone got any tips for interesting/weird analogue-style delay plugins?

Supatrigger - awesome! But makes my Live crash sometimes!
Anyone know of a free or cheapish compressor with side chain input?

is there mac version of the PhaseBug??? or any plugin that does the same thing for mac. Its just a phase shifter controlled with a 360 degree wheel. It'd help me fixing phase problems that aren’t exactly 180 degrees out of phase

Anyone know of a decent free enhancer plugin? Never thought to investigate these things before...

well i know about these plug ins from dont crack, so i was not completely over the moon, anyhow, having become a recent convert to the MAC, i want really some advice, i have always used cu base on my pc. i now want to try out some other software, but not buy just now, does anyone know of any where to get hold of some software much the same as cubase, or indeed a version of cu base i could use meanwhile, as i am rather lagging and dwelling on this one, and i fear i will have to purchase cubase again, which terrifies me. Any advice on a good program, well, i would be seriously grateful!

I think this would be more appropriate on another thread, but you should contact Steinberg and ask about a cross platform copy of Cubase. Also, Apple has a demo version of Logic for download. It is here: http://www.apple.com/logicexpress/trial/

This may sound like a dumb question however how do you get the plug in to show up in Pro Tools after you have downloaded them?

I download them and they don't show up. I tried putting the little icon into the Pro tools plug in alias folder but that didn't work either. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

peace
jj

All the freebies I've had for Pro Tools have had an installer that does the lot. Make sure the plug is UB if you've got an Intel Mac, as PPC plugins just won't show up.

Sorry if you know this, but Pro Tools LE/M-Powered will only accept RTAS plugins, not AU. You can select to filter to RTAS plugins on Don'tCrack.

you need the right sort of plug in.... the majority are AU "audio units" for Logic .... for PT you need RTAS plug ins, or you need Fxpansion's VST to RTAS wrapper./


you can;lt just dump them in a folder and expect them to work if they're not RTAS plugs.

No UB version, though.

I've been having fun with these 20+ odd plug-ins, and they are UB:

On the ones that have the option, try lowering the FFT to 512 to reduce latency. Some of them have been a little "crashy" in Live 6.

At www.ffnn.nl/pages/projects/audio-units/legacy-versions.php you'll find 3 UB AU's for free. The only catch is that they are no longer supported because there are updated commercial versions (but at only $10 each, if you like the free ones, consider buying the new v.2 plug-ins to support the developers). The plug-ins on offer are -

Diatonic Shifter v.1.x - Eventide-style pitch-shifting/harmonizer

Octave Shifter v.1.x - Real-time pitch-shifting +/- 1 octave

Reverse Sampler v.1.x - Gapless, semi-real time reverse playback, auto crossfades, sample (delay) 0.1 to 10 seconds

Hi-

I am a pro composer/musician, working for 3 USA networks, so my list of plug ins is embarissingly deep and way too expensive, but in many ways, the most inspiring plug in I have ever used in terms of creating new ideas's from static grooves is a free plug in called Live Cut, from Mcdsp software.....combined Livecut with a drum groove generator like Stylus RMX, EZDrummer, etc. is just fantastic...the comapny asks for a donation, and i sent them 30 bucks, thinking i was insulting them, but was told in a reply that that was the most they had ever received, so a 5 dollar paypal transfer would make you both happy. its still free if you choose not to, but once you try it, you will want to help them develop this great tool even more
it is basically a low cpu drain AU/VST plug-in used as an audio track insert (in DP mixer at least) that takes any audio on that channel and slices it up in real time...it has a ton of controls to modify, randomize and repeat the slices, as well as a "Squarepusher" contol for the truly adventurest jungle/D&B/chill/trance madman in you.....it never fails to amaze me what comes out of it, and you can record it free form as you dial away and then edit the best bits....works on any audio, and as a sidebenefit, when used with Stylus RMX; it mutes the output of stylus rmx when you stop or pause DP. hit play and you are back to groovin. I believe you can search for it in SOS, as they gave it a very nice mini review a few months ago
imho, it's just an Amazing Drum & Bass tool, and it beats the heck out of improvising ideas over a static 2 bar drum loop.
Beta bugs chorus is another nice fx, as is Crystal synth....i wish they would charge for crystal and put the money into even more developement, so get it while it is still free.
hope this is of some help. good luck

The Delta Series are very cool - nice phaser, delay, distortion, etc. VST only though.

All those looking for a free sampler, designed for live use, i've just come across musolomo which i'm trying out in Logic, though it can be used with Live also. Very tasty, it has to be said. You can record in real-time, or drag in audio, midi-assignable controller options, and some good effects.

BIAS are giving this away at the moment


BIAS GateEx

Here is the blurb

A new pro-quality Gate/Expander plug-in with graphic displays, advanced parameter control, and downward expander — effectively removes signals below an assignable threshold and helps reduce audio noise.

In dialog recordings, a gate might be used to remove (or minimize) the presence of background noise or room tone that is audible in the amplitude dips between the speaker's words or phrases. In music recordings, a gate might be used to remove or isolate one type of drum from another. By applying GateEx as a downward expander, you can increase the apparent dynamic range of your audio.

They give you a serial number for the gate and you get to install demos of the other plugins if you want as well.

Thought you might like to know that I've ported the CAPS plugins to AudioUnits. Most of them are a bit boring, and already available in Logic etc (ie compress, eq, chorus); but I reckon the Amp and Preamp ones sound really good. They will appear in the plugins menu under the manufacturer "Zen_Platypus".

The direct download link for version 1.0.0 is here and the SourceForge page can be found here. The project is under GPL and full source is available.

Please use this forum or the SourceForge forums for feedback. I'd be particularly interested to hear from PPC and/or 10.4 users - I believe these plugins should work on both but I haven't been able to test this.

http://www.musicproducerxxx.com

Got through the whole post amazed not to have seen anything about TOGU.... until the three posts above!

First used the SH101 clone and it took me back to my school days (and to my ears it has a genuine 'sound' that my other synths don't seem to have) and then the Juno 60 clone and nearly exploded with pleasure. These are genuine quality instruments although in my AU to VST wrapper, there are some minor visual annoyances. The vocoder is brilliant too... in fact, no-one here should be without any of their stuff is my 2p

Cheers,

I thought the same thing.. they are very good plugins, and considering the fact that they're free, should be downloaded by everyone....

What a find!!!!! These plugs are astonishingly high quality.

And the 101 clone - it brings back memories for me to. SH101 was my first synth as 16: the fundamentals of synthesis I learnt on that exquisite machine have stood me in great stead over the years. I can't think of a better synth to learn on.

I remember dreaming of having a whole orchestra of SH101's - and now I can do it: I've just loaded up 16 instances into logic and am having a ball!!!

Back in 1989, I eventually ended up with two, and used to run them with a TR606 and a Seq. Circuits Pro One. What a meaty set up that was... At gigs I would program the 101 sequencer on stage between each song..... I was very proud of that feat!

This whole suit is the best set of free plugs I have come across by a mile.

Thanks for the heads-up: you've made me a very happy bunny and given a much needed injection of inspiration to my workflow...

It's been mentioned on these fora before, but SPL are giving away their "Attacker" plug free, until 15 Nov., as well as the free ranger, a diminished version of the standard graphic, inductor EQ. The attacker is, as you would imagine, the first/left half of the Transient Designer. Neither requires an iLok, and are available in all three formats, as far as I know. I only downloaded the AU, since that's all I use.

VFX application - anyone using it?

I did a search to see if this has been discussed, but couldn't find anything. I'm going to post this in the freeware VST sticky, because it seems to allow you to run PC VST FX in Mac OS and there are many free ones out there! I'm trying this now - anyone else had much success with it?

Here

Still evaluating above post since my new Apogee started annoying me, but can't remember if anyone's mentioned any of the Stillwell stuff (as used by Mix Rescue) - They're not FREE - but you can check them out without limit - and as far as I can hear so far...... I'm about to PAY (the very reasonable cost) for at least 3 since I found out - amazing. Between these and TAL, I'm lost for typos here

Hi-

I am a pro composer/musician, working for 3 USA networks, so my list of plug ins is embarissingly deep and way too expensive, but in many ways, the most inspiring plug in I have ever used in terms of creating new ideas's from static grooves is a free plug in called Live Cut, from Mcdsp software.....combined Livecut with a drum groove generator like Stylus RMX, EZDrummer, etc. is just fantastic...the comapny asks for a donation, and i sent them 30 bucks, thinking i was insulting them, but was told in a reply that that was the most they had ever received, so a 5 dollar paypal transfer would make you both happy. its still free if you choose not to, but once you try it, you will want to help them develop this great tool even more
it is basically a low cpu drain AU/VST plug-in used as an audio track insert (in DP mixer at least) that takes any audio on that channel and slices it up in real time...it has a ton of controls to modify, randomize and repeat the slices, as well as a "Squarepusher" contol for the truly adventurest jungle/D&B/chill/trance madman in you.....it never fails to amaze me what comes out of it, and you can record it free form as you dial away and then edit the best bits....works on any audio, and as a sidebenefit, when used with Stylus RMX; it mutes the output of stylus rmx when you stop or pause DP. hit play and you are back to groovin. I believe you can search for it in SOS, as they gave it a very nice mini review a few months ago
imho, it's just an Amazing Drum & Bass tool, and it beats the heck out of improvising ideas over a static 2 bar drum loop.
Beta bugs chorus is another nice fx, as is Crystal synth....i wish they would charge for crystal and put the money into even more developement, so get it while it is still free.
hope this is of some help. good luck

Is this plug-in still about anywhere? I'm looking for a glitch / stutter / randomizer sort of plug in for the Mac! (Running Logic 9.1)

A quick Google search reveals this page: http://mdsp.smartelectronix.com/livecut/

Looks tasty - I'm going to try it, but please let us know how you get on with it...

I'm after something that does something similar to the roll effect on the Pioneer DJM mixers: anyone know of a freebie out there that'll do this?

couldn't edit my original post, but the original link explains how I found this stand-alone utility unworkable for me.

will definitely check alot of these out. ive just got into downloading au units for my macbook, is there a danger that any units will damage or interfere with the running of my mac? ta

Hey. Ive downloaded over 100 free AU plug-ins, and they all work fine, running Logic 8.

cheers

a couple of great additions to the TAL range.....

I've not tried the new reverb or eq yet, but if the early plugins are anything to go by, these will be very good indeed!!!!

Looks good, thanks!

Hi any analysis tools floating around? PPMs, phase scopes, etc?

Lots listed on the KVR database. PSP's freebie Vintage Meter is a handy one for VU and PPM. The Flux Stereo Tool is good for simple phase metering + goniometer. SSL's X-ISM for inter sample peak errors.
