Walls is a unique and versatile algorithmic space effect, an exploration of sound deconstructing the traditional ideas of what a reverb can be. A bendable structure, on the edge of texture.
Shape a space for your sound. Stretch it, scale it, tilt it. All sounds are welcome.
Six acoustic modes, each with its own character. A clean, responsive interface that invites movement over measurement. From grounded realism to bending, impossible geometries – Walls adapts to your sound, and how you choose to inhabit it.
Shape a room your sound belongs in. Or one that’s never existed before. From soft, natural reflections to abstract geometries, Walls gives sound a place.

Step back in time and infuse your audio with the unmistakable character of yesterday. Introducing Mr. Lo-Fi, the definitive audio processor for adding authentic vintage charm to your music and sound projects.

* **Cassette:** Relive the glory days of analog mixtapes with warm saturation, tape hiss, and subtle pitch variations.
* **VHS:** Add the unique, wobbly audio character of classic videotapes to your tracks.
* **Vinyl:** Recreate the timeless sound of records, complete with authentic crackles, pops, and the gentle hum of a turntable.
* **Vintage Digital:** Journey back to the dawn of digital audio with bit-crushed textures, sample rate reduction, and the signature sound of early microprocessors.
**Speaker Emulations**
Audition your lo-fi creations through four classic speaker modes:
* **Studio:** A clean, flat reference for accurate monitoring.
* **Hi-Fi:** The sound of a classic 80s/90s home stereo system.
* **Boombox:** The punchy, mid-focused sound of a portable cassette player.
* **Television:** The characteristic audio of a vintage CRT television set.
**Fine-Tune Your Vibe**
Ready to go deeper? Sculpt your sound with precision using our advanced controls:
* **Noise:** Dial in the perfect amount of hiss, hum, and crackle.
* **Warble:** Control the pitch instability for everything from subtle flutter to extreme tape chew.
* **H-Control:** A unique creative parameter that shapes different artifacts depending on the selected mode – from crossover distortion and tape dropouts to digital jitter.
Whether you’re a music producer chasing that chill lo-fi hip-hop sound, a film composer adding period-accurate audio, or a sound designer creating unique textures, Mr. Lo-Fi is your secret weapon for instant vibe.
Elastic OSC is a synthesizer app based on the DSP code of the Mutable Instruments Plaits hardware oscillator module, one of the most beloved (and cloned) oscillator modules in the Eurorack modular scene! Like the original, Elastic OSC comes with a wide variety of possible sounds, from analog-style, FM, and additive sounds to physical modeling, percussive, and even drum sounds.
Elastic OSC can be used in both monophonic and 8-voice polyphonic modes. You can play the app using the (on-screen) keyboard or an external keyboard or sequencer inside your DAW of choice.
The app focuses on ease of use, featuring two XY pads for intuitive sound manipulation of the OSC engine and the effects. Despite the simplicity of the cleaned-up interface, the sound possibilities are vast – thanks to 24 different oscillator models and the ability to automate parameter changes, as it is possible in all Elastic apps released so far.
A versatile Arpeggiator makes it easy to start with simple ideas or can already create entire sonic worlds.
Elastic OSC includes an integrated help system (tap “?”) to provide explanations for nearly every GUI element, the underlying DSP model, and most of the app’s functionality.
