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):

  • Safety Pin.exe - standalone app. Options > Audio/MIDI Settings: ASIO, your interface, the violin's input; then "Unmute Input".
  • Safety Pin.vst3 - copy to C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3 and rescan in your DAW. Replaces v0.1.0; your projects keep their settings.

The files are not code-signed, so Windows SmartScreen may say "Windows protected your PC": click More info > Run anyway.
