The Wave folder is inspired by west coast modular synths like Buchla and Serge, where you instead of starting with a harsh waveform (Eg. Gramophony is a free download for Windows from KVR Audio.Īlso available from Martin is Wave folder, a plugin that will make your source audio sound more harsh. Version 1.0.1 updates the vibrato and filter parameters. The plugin has controls for comp, tone, vibe and dry/wet mix.
The goal is not to sound as an old gramophone player, but to sound cool, slightly out of tune and a little bit more dirty. The gramophony VST is combining mild distortion, chorus/vibrato and band pass filtering. The effect is inspired by the sound of the band Boards of Canada who utilises vibrato, compression and filtering to get a Lo-Fi sound on their tracks. Martinheterjag has released version 1.0.1 of Gramophony, a free VST3 effect plugin designed to brings a lo-fi sound to your track.
