Product information

Spectral Sound Design

Seconds is a spectral sound design effect combining bandpass filters, ring modulation, saturation, panning, and sample rate reduction.

Built around 48 bandpass filters tuned in whole-tone steps, it lets you slice sounds, sequence their spectrum via MIDI, or transfer the spectral character of one sound to another.

From lush modulation and rotary effects to metallic textures, booming bass drums, and glassy pings, Seconds opens up a world of experimental sound design.

A bank of 48 analog-modelled bandpass filters offers precise spectral control, with whole-tone spacing, adjustable resonance, and 12 or 24 dB slopes.

Based on the passive inductive coil modelling of Dials and Octaves, these filters can gently shape sounds or push them into more extreme territory.
Play and Transfer the Spectrum

Use MIDI to play the filter bank and sequence a sound’s spectrum, creating evolving patterns, glassy pings, and booming percussion.

Capture and freeze the spectrum of one sound, then apply its spectral shape to another for entirely new textures.
