Safety Pin v0.3.0 - BYPASS and MUTE

New in v0.3.0

• BYPASS: true bypass, your clean signal lined up with the effect so switching doesn't jump. It's also your DAW's bypass button.
• MUTE: silence, for tuning or between songs. Clicking the tuner toggles the same MUTE.
• BYPASS and MUTE can be MIDI-learned (right-click), so you can put them on a footswitch.
• The standalone app opens with the input live: no "muted to avoid feedback" bar to click away.
• Credits: Farica☆Kimora © Cursed Entertainment.

pluginval strictness 10: passed.

Install: unzip; run Safety Pin.exe, or copy Safety Pin.vst3 to C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3. The files aren't code-signed, so SmartScreen may ask: More info > Run anyway.

Safety Pin v0.2.0 - MIDI learn

Safety Pin v0.2.0 - a distortion made for electric violin, now with MIDI learn.

New

• MIDI learn: right-click any knob (or OVERKILL) > MIDI learn, then turn a knob on your controller. The CC number shows under the knob; right-click again to forget it. Links are saved with your project, or when you close the standalone app.
• Works in the standalone app too, so you can play live without a DAW: tick your controller under Options > Audio/MIDI Settings > Active MIDI inputs. Map OVERKILL to a footswitch (pedal down = on).
• Checked with pluginval at strictness 10 (all tests pass).

Everything else

• ANGER drive, OVERKILL (+12 dB, hard clipping), CELLO real octave down, GUTS sub two octaves down, BOTTOM / SNARL bass and tone, BASEMENT / DECAY plate reverb
• Built-in violin tuner (G D A E, A = 440) on the clean input; click it to mute while tuning
• In Cubase every knob is automatable and works with Quick Controls / MIDI Remote

Download

SafetyPin-v0.2.0-win64.zip (Windows 10/11, 64-bit, nothing else to install):
