Description
Vintage DA Sound
The coloration and warmth characteristic of circuits from classic samplers recreated with painstaking accuracy
Far more than just a bit-crusher
Approximative anti-alias filter and image filter, adjustable jitter and dithering, and two alternative quantization algorithms for total control over the process.
Multimode filter
Works in pre or post, along with a resampler module to allow further sculpting of the signal.
Under the hood
Electronic music (especially Hip-Hop) producers have long been aware that classic samplers (such as early Akai and E-MU units) had a character and sound all their own: they added a “grit” and “color” to the samples and loops they played back which made them sound “fat” and sit well in a mix. This sound coloration was due to the encoding techniques, lower sample rate and bit depth, and conversion circuits used by these early samplers. Decimort recreates this coloration and adds that vintage sampler magic back to any loop, any bassline, or any sound played through it for that matter! Beyond vintage sampler emulation, it’s also the perfect bit-crusher with filter, capable of extreme settings for dramatic results.
Features
- Two quantization methods – Two available quantization methods; the mid-raiser and mid-tread decimation algorithms, each of them characterized by a drastically different dynamics response.
- Approximation filter – A very steep low-pass pre filter (Approximative Filter) coupled with the resampling frequency that removes all harmonic content above it, ensuring no aliasing will appear below this frequency in the spectrum.
- The highest quality low-quality effect:
- While this tagline may seem like an oxymoron on the surface, allow us to explain: The advanced signal processing algorithms within Decimort simulate the complex behavior of the entire (re-)sampling path that exists in every AD/DA converter, and with version 2 comes far greater control over the process!
- Decimort has zero internal aliasing in fact, the only aliasing present is the emulated aliasing of the classic samplers we modeled when creating it. Unwelcome artefacts are completely absent in the processed signal: only the desirable, modeled ones remain.
Key Features
- Adjustable jitter. An unprecedented feature in the bit crusher’s world which introduces short-period, random fluctuations to the resampling frequency, thus making the process even more sonically interesting by producing a type of harmonic distortion you’ve likely never heard in this context
- Images filter. Post-resampling filter (Images filter) is synchronized with the resampler, gives control over amount of aliasing images appearing above resampling frequency when enabled.
- Two in One. Decimort is also equipped with analog-like filters with adjustable resonance that allow further sculpting of the signal. These can be used to smooth the sound or remove sonic artefacts introduced into the signal path by the modeling process to your taste.
- Controllable dithering – Dithering was conceptually developed as means to reduce audible quantization errors by masking the harmonic distortions they cause. We added controllable dithering to increase number of ways in which you can (mal)treat the sound.
- ADC emulation with zero internal aliasing and no harmonics above 22kHz
- Several UI sizes and HiDPI support for better screen fit
- MIDI Learn for easy controller assignment
