Just a Sample: Free audio sampler for Windows, Mac & Linux.


 

Binyamin Friedman (BOBONA) has released a new audio sampler with a focus on simplicity and ease of use. Free and open-source, Just a Sample comes with powerful playback controls. It is designed to help you navigate effortlessly.

I spent a lot of time on this project, and I think it will be a great addition to your plugin collection.

Available for Windows, Mac, and Linux in VST3/AU. If you want to show your appreciation, write a nice comment and spread the word to your fellow creatives!

Just a Sample features

  • Smoothly zoom in to the level of individual samples to set bounds as accurately as you need. Waveform drawing is optimized for large samples.
  • Integrated Bungee time stretcher allows for freely modulating time and pitch independently. Try extreme slow-downs (0.01x) for unique sounds.
  • Modern navigation controls allow for easy browsing of waveforms with touchpad or mouse.
  • A routable FX chain includes reverb, chorus, distortion, and EQ for easy sound design.
  • Waveform Mode activates when small bounds are set, looping the waveform periodically like a wavetable synth. This turns Just a Sample into a unique tone generator.
  • Easily modify attack and release curves.
  • Includes equal power cross-fade looping with separate attack and release sample portions.
  • Supports pitch bend and fine-tuning.
  • Disable antialiasing for a gritty LoFi effect.
  • Record samples directly into the sampler.
  • Store samples directly in plugin state to remove dependencies (can be disabled).
  • Auto-tune to A440 (experimental, works best on simple sounds).

The sampler is available to download for Windows, Mac and Linux in VST3 and AU plugin formats.

Wire Grind releases Honest Overdrive free distortion plugin

 


Honest Overdrive comes with an adjustable clipping threshold, a settable maximum saturation point, status indicators, and oversampling.

Honest Overdrive controls the amount of distortion by altering the threshold at which clipping begins. Users can set this threshold directly. Users can also set the clipping softness directly using the parameter “softness amount.” This parameter is set using decibels, and its value is equal to the separation between the clipping threshold and the point of maximum saturation. In other words, if the “clipping threshold” is -30dB and the “softness amount” is +5dB, then the point of maximum saturation is the sum of these two, -25dB.

The plug-in includes two status indicators. One detects the presence of overdrive, and the other detects when the effect has reached a state of complete saturation.

Honest Overdrive is free to download from the Wire Grind website.
