VolumeShaper

Gate effect

VolumeShaper is a simple but unique gate effect. This VST plugin allows detailed modulation of a signal's volume.

You can draw any volume curve you like shaping hard-synced or analogue-sounding rhythms. Create interesting rhythmic strings, shape a bass sound, destroy vocal recordings, create vivid shaker rhythms out of high-passed white noise, use it to simulate the typical pumping sidechain compression, etc.

You can change all parameters via automation (if your host sequencer can handle it). Everything. Even the shape of the modulating wave can be automated. Choose which wave is in use at any position in your song, change the loop length, record and play back any wave point movements and assign any hardware controller to any parameter in VolumeShaper. Even with heavy modulations, with tempo changes in the host or jumping at different positions of a song, the modulation always stays in sync.
