Nebula3 MultiFx
Nebula3 Free is a fully functional, cut down version of Nebula3 Pro.
Nebula is a multi-effect plug-in that is able to emulate and replicate several types of expensive audio equipment, eliminating the need for costly and bulky hardware. Nebula uses libraries which are created using a sophisticated "sampling approach" making it possible to "record" aspects of the sound of audio devices and play them back. The result of this sampling process is highly realistic, complex emulations of many types of audio signal processes, captured and utilized all within a plug-in that is compatible with all major DAW's and editing software.
Inside this bundle you will find:
- Nebula3 Free (CoreII Engine): the free multi-effect plug-in.
- N.A.T.3 free: the free FX Sampler.
- The free library: small, fully-functional preset library.

Features:
- Histogram representation (sliding-window statistics) of incoming program material and gain change.
- Free-form dynamics processing defined by curves.
- All performance-critical code optimized in assembly (utilizing SSE2 flow instructions).
- Very low harmonic distortion (THD during normal operation is below -105 dB FS).
- Two different program dependent attack algorithms.
- Two release algorithms (program dependent and user defined).
- Side chain filtering (low and high pass filters).
- M/S operation with optional side channel transfer function.
- Stereo operation with adjustable stereo link.
- Dry mix option for parallel processing.
- Peak, RMS and Hybrid level detection options.
- Look-ahead processing for minimizing distortion with extremely fast attack settings.

Walls of Virtual Sound ..Mutli effects
Metallurgy is a PC VST multi effect that is capable of providing sounds ranging from some basic, subtle, filter tweaks to twisted, complex, walls of sound that bear virtually no resemblance to the original audio. Metallurgy offers 3 filters with multiple modulation options, 2 very digital distortions, 2 downsamplers, dual delay, an envelope follower, a gate sequencer, and a Metal effect that, in addition to flanging and metallic effects, also provides the ability to produce pitched sequences. You can even play the pitches via MIDI input, nearly turning Metallurgy into an synth in it's own right.
Metallurgy was designed with drums, bass, and synths in mind, but it works well with a wide variety of input material and is useful for many styles of music. I always encourage experimentation with all my VST's but it's especially so with this one since, by virtue of being an effect, you can run anything you want through it. So just feed it lots of different stuff, see what it spits out, and have fun!

Copy Protection: None!
I prefer to not annoy my customers with ineffective and intrusive copy protection methods that would still get cracked and that warez users never see anyway. Instead I'd rather that my customers enjoy a more comfortable and easy installation experience.
Please do not distribute or give away your copy though. If your friend wants a copy, encourage them to buy their own. I try to keep my prices low so that my VSTs will be affordable to the majority of computer musicians.
Installation
You just have to unzip a single folder into your VST directory and you're done. That's it. No annoying installers or registrations.
License Transfers Allowed
If you find that you are no longer getting much use out of your purchase, you can transfer your license to someone else. Just let me know who it is going to so that the new owner can receive updates and support.
GSNAP Pitch Correction / Auto-tuning
GSnap is an auto-tune effect. It can be used subtly to correct the pitch of a vocal, or, with more extreme settings, to create a robot-voice effect.For GSnap to work effectively, the input signal should be monophonic, at a good level and reasonably noise-free. For example, a clean, mono vocal recording, without excessive noise or reverb. Effect plug-ins should be placed after GSnap in the signal chain.
GSnap starts off by detecting the pitch of the incoming audio. The Min Freq and Max Freq parameters help the pitch-detector by narrowing the range of frequencies it needs to consider. Also, the Gate parameter should be set so that the pitch-detector ignores background noise during "silent" passages.
The Speed parameter sets the number of wave repetitions required for positive pitch-detection. Lower values for Speed will allow faster pitch-detection, but will increase the chance of false detection. The default value should be fine in most cases.
Once a pitch has been determined, GSnap applies the specified pitch-correction. There are two modes of pitch correction: fixed scale and MIDI. Fixed scale correction has a fixed set of snap-notes, while MIDI correction is controlled in real time by MIDI data.
The Threshold parameter sets the largest pitch-shift that will be applied to the input. It defines a region around each snap-note that will be corrected to that note. The GUI shows the snap-notes and regions in effect at any time.
The pitch-detection and correction can be made to use a different reference frequency using the Calibrate parameter. This sets the frequency of A above middle C.
Additionally, GSnap will respond to pitch-bend and modulation MIDI messages to apply pitch-bend and vibrato. The Pitch Bend, Vibrato and Vib Speed parameters control these effects.

Titan - 200 Synthesizers in One
Titan offers 5,500 multi-samples of the best sounds from 200 classic Analog Synthesizers and Modular Systems, including the biggest and most famous Digital Synths and Workstations of the 80s and 90s, and from the newest virtual instruments and current synths, all in one massive plug-in.That means 40 years of synth history and sound variety. Best Service put great emphasis on preserving the unique sound character of each instrument - that's why many of the instruments were partially sampled with their original effects and filters, which can be hard to reproduce in the virtual domain. All instruments were sampled and looped perfectly and inserted into the new Best Service ENGINE.
ENGINE was developed by Best Service in cooperation with Yellow Tools. It is based on Yellow Tools' high-end sampler Independence Pro and offers all performance features of a contemporary sample engine.

Tested and working on Windows 7 64bit and Windows Vista SP2 32bit.. Enjoy this Fine 7AIR release.
LF Max Punch 1.1 by Voxengo -released!
Voxengo are pleased to release an updated Voxengo LF Max Punch version 1.1 which is available for download immediately. Voxengo LF Max Punch is a professional audio effect plug-in for music and sounds where low-frequency thump and punch are most welcome, and where distortion is applied specifically to bring the bass sound to life. Plug-in is available in AudioUnit and VST plug-in formats, for Mac OS X, Windows XP and Windows Vista computers.
Version 1.1 implements the following changes:
- Crossover filter steepness parameter added.
- "Radial" knob mode can be now disabled completely.

Optional compression can then be applied to the resulting low-frequency sound. LF Max Punch first splits the broad-band signal into low- and high-frequency bands by means of a selectable-slope crossover filter and then applies the aforementioned effects to the lower band only.
LF Max Punch features:
- Puncher module
- Saturator module (2 modes)
- Sub-harmonic synthesizer
- Built-in compressor
- Effect monitoring switch
- Multi-channel processing
- Internal channel routing
