Audio Plugin — VST3 / AU
AnalogEntropy
Coming soon...
Explores the beauty of imperfection — adding depth, motion and organic character to modern productions.
18 parameters
Everything that makes old machines feel alive
Parameters are most effective when combined — the human ear recognises analog warmth as the accumulation of many small, simultaneous deviations from perfection.
Drive
The bite of an overdriven analog preamp — gentle at first, real harmonic grit as you push it.
Warmth
Even-order transformer harmonics — the round, low-end warmth of vintage consoles.
Saturation
Dynamic tape saturation that responds to the signal envelope — peaks crush harder than quiet passages.
Air
A harmonic exciter in the spirit of Aphex and BBE — brightness that is created, not just boosted.
Haze
A Bucket Brigade Device chorus drawn from vintage tape-echo machines — organic, never mechanical.
Sway
Internal harmonic detuning — like a piano whose strings have drifted apart over decades.
Smear
The blur of a partially clogged tape head — softening attacks, melting notes together.
Drift
Real tape wow and flutter modelled as two distinct components — WOW and FLUTTER, never robotic.
Dropouts
Brief random signal dropouts with independent stereo asymmetry — uneven head wear, made subtle.
Hiss
Warm, band-passed analog tape hiss with a slowly evolving spectral texture.
Crackles
Continuous granular vinyl noise from a real embedded vinyl recording — sparse to dense.
Buzz
50 Hz mains hum — the quiet fingerprint of a slightly misgrounded tape deck.
Model
Six emulations — S900, SP-1200, Emu II, Mellotron, SK-1, AM Radio. Each with its own filter, converter response and noise floor.
Bass / Treble
Vintage tone stack — passive cut on one side, active boost on the other, just like a real amp.
Blend
Global dry/wet mix — pull back for parallel processing. At 0.5 with Haze, you get a natural flanger.
Glue
Analog bus compression — transparent at low settings, full vintage character past the midpoint.
Output
Final level trim with one-click Auto Gain to compensate for any gain change introduced by the chain.
