Add Character with Subtle to Strong Pitch Errors
Pitch Dropout adds character with subtle to strong pitch errors. Imagine a tape in an old playback system getting stuck and then speeding up again to catch up, adding a nice and subtle flux to the pitch of your signal.
Pitch Dropout allows you to do this randomly, ranging in frequency from very rarely to extremely often, or even controlled precisely through the Dropout button, which you can automate to sync to your beat. Add an extra layer of character to your sounds.
Features
- Create subtle to strong pitch errors in your signal.
- Six different Modes, simulating a variety of dropout behaviors.
- Mono Dropout Mode affects both channels the same.
- Stereo Dropout Mode creates wide effects by independent Errors on each channel.
- Trigger Dropouts by adjustable Chance.
- Trigger Dropouts manually with the automatable Dropout button.
- Amount dial to scale overall error intensity.
- Amount and Chance are finetuned to work with each mode.
Six Modes To Add Tasty Errors
Imagine a tape in an old playback system getting stuck and then speeding up again to catch up, adding a nice and subtle flux to the pitch of your signal. Pitch Dropout features six different modes, each giving the dropouts a different shape and chance behaviour.
As Random As You Like
Changing the Amount slider from 0% to 100% will increase or decrease the strength of the dropouts in your mix. Automate this control to have just the right amount of error and fluctuation that works best with your sounds and music.
The Ghost Of A Chance
The Chance slider allows you to tweak the inner workings of the dropout algorithm and therefore define how often the errors are happening. When Chance is set to a low value dropouts will happen more rarely - the further you increase Chance the more likely it is that dropouts will occur. Use it to go from subtle imperfections to complete lofi aesthetics in an instant.
