combover comes back from the archives

combover is a comb delay, and four more comb delays, and a step sequencer that does odd things, and a pool of prime numbers that make stuff happen, and some mix n match pitch detection. It also has an xy pad and wet / dry controls that let some stuff through and other stuff not. It does crazy stuff, you should stop reading these words and find out for yourself.

combover was developed by de la Mancha and runagate, who together formed the evil alliance. It hasn’t been available for download for a while, but following the new dlM wordpress site, I am going to carry on uploading a few archived and previously unavailable plugins. Hope you enjoy the madness 🙂

machin

machin is a random, probability-based, step-sequenced multi-fx device created in partnership with sink

– the step sequencer defines the probability that any single random effect will be triggered on that step
– the weighting defines the probability for each effect that it will be the one that is triggered

features

• 6 effects (gate, crusher, filter, flanger, delay, reverb)
• 2-32 step probability sequencer over a cycle of 2-32 beats
• seeded randomisation with loop repeat over cycle of 2-100 beats
• swing control for step sequencer
• any effects can be turned off to save CPU
• each effect has an attack/decay on triggering and pulse length to determine duration effect is on
• master wet/dry mix control
• all controls have MIDI learn

sfilter

sfilter creates a stepped filtered sequence, to create gating, sweeps or rhythmic modulation of filter cut-off. It uses a variable state filter, varying between 2 adjustable cut-off values according to a tempo-sync’d step sequencer. An LFO can also modulate the filter for extra movement

features

• tempo-sync step sequencer, with 2 to 32 steps over a sequence length of 2 to 32 beats
• resonant variable filter, LP, HP, BP and notch
• filter cut-off varies between upper and lower cut-off values, in either direction
• tempo sync LFO, with 6 waveforms and settings from 1/16 beat to 96 beats
• random swing for step sequencer
• wet/dry mix control
• midi CC and midi learn

pfilter

pfilter creates a steppy, gated effect, but using filter cut-off instead of volume to give a wider range of possibilities. It uses a variable state filter, triggered between 2 adjustable cut-off values by a tempo-sync’d probability-based step sequencer. An LFO can modulate the filter when triggered and trigger pulse length, attack and release can shape the sound

features

• tempo-sync step sequencer, with 2 to 32 steps over a sequence length of 2 to 32 beats
• can be programmed or random, by setting the probability of each step from 0-100%
• seeded randomisation for repeatable loops up to 100 beats long
• resonant variable filter, LP, HP, BP and notch
• filter triggered between upper and lower cut-off values, in either direction
• tempo sync LFO, with 6 waveforms and settings from 1/16 beat to 96 beats
• adjustable pulse length, attack and decay for shaping the modulation
• random swing for step sequencer
• wet/dry mix control
• midi CC and midi learn

gator

gator creates a random gating effect, triggering volume between 2 adjustable values by a tempo-sync’d probability-based step sequencer. An LFO can modulate the volume when triggered and trigger pulse length, attack and release can shape the sound

features

• tempo-sync step sequencer, with 2 to 32 steps over a sequence length of 2 to 32 beats
• can be programmed or random, by setting the probability of each step from 0-100%
• seeded randomisation for repeatable loops up to 100 beats long
• volume triggered between upper and lower cut-off values, in either direction
• tempo sync LFO, with 6 waveforms and settings from 1/16 beat to 96 beats
• adjustable pulse length, attack and decay for shaping the modulation
• random swing for step sequencer
• wet/dry mix control
• midi CC and midi learn
