• Airwindows Texturize: Mac/Windows/Lin...
This is further development on my earlier plugin, Texturize. It existed to blend sculpted noise with the direct signal in a way that can enhance the qualities of your audio… depending on what that was, and whether you liked the results. It 'does something', that's for sure, but what? My code for doing it already existed, but there was a lot of buzz over another plugin which did a variation of this effect with a great deal of mystery and hype. I thought it was useful to do an open source version where you could clearly hear what the thing did, and that's Texturize.
But what if a simple stereo effect isn't enough?
TexturizeMS breaks the effect into mid/side processing, and then lets you set them independently. That means you can add a bit of extra zip in the highs to just the side, while keeping the center cleaner. If you have synthetic elements that show obvious noise using Texturize, and they're centered, you can tune just the middle. I think it's a major upgrade in terms of actually using the effect usefully.
It's still Texturize. It's still a sort of funky snake oil (or maybe truffle oil?) It's a flavor and is absolutely doing a thing, but you don't have to consider it useful. But if you liked the flavor and atmosphere of this one, I think it's your lucky day. Hope you like it!
