• Real-time Audio Processing: Load any audio sample and manipulate it on the fly.
• Lo-Fi Sampler Module: Degrade your audio with variable bit depth reduction and clock rate downsampling.
• Multi-mode Filter: Shape the frequency content with Lowpass, Bandpass, Highpass and Notch filters; coupled with an analog-style drive circuit.
• Tape Echo: Add space and texture with a delay unit featuring feedback and tape wow/flutter effects.
• Interactive Waveform Display: Visualize the loaded audio and click/drag to seek through the sample.
• VU Meter: Classic vintage-style stereo VU meter for monitoring output levels.

𝐒𝐚𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐫

Control	Description	Range
Bits	Reduces the bit depth of the audio, introducing digital quantization noise and crunch.	2 to 16 Bits
Clock	Lowers the sample rate, creating aliasing and "ringing" artifacts typical of vintage samplers.	10% to 100%

𝐅𝐢𝐥𝐭𝐞𝐫

Control	Description	Range
Cutoff	Sets the frequency point where the filter begins to affect the audio.	20 Hz to 20,000 Hz
Resonance	Emphasizes the frequencies right around the cutoff point, creating a peak or "ringing" sound.	0.0 to 1.0
Drive	Pushes the signal into soft-clipping distortion before it leaves the filter. Gain compensation is applied automatically.	1x to 10x
Mode	Selects the filter type: Lowpass (LP), Bandpass (BP), Highpass (HP), or Notch (NOTCH).	Multi-state

𝐄𝐜𝐡𝐨

Control	Description	Range
Repetitions	Sets the delay time between successive echo repeats.	0.0s to 1.0s
Feedback	Controls how much of the delayed signal is fed back into the delay line, determining the number of repeating echoes.	0.0 to 0.9
Width (Wow)	Introduces a slow, randomized pitch fluctuation simulating the wow and flutter of a vintage analog tape delay.	0.0 to 1.0

𝐆𝐥𝐨𝐛𝐚𝐥 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐥𝐬

Control	Description
Load	Opens a file dialog to select and load a new audio file (most standard audio formats are supported).
Presets	Dropdown menu featuring 8 authentic dub techno preset configurations.
Volume	Master output volume control dial.
Record	Start and stop live recording of the master output.
Play	Starts playback of the loaded sample.
Pause	Pauses playback at the current position.
Stop	Stops playback and returns the playhead to the beginning of the sample.
Waveform	Click and drag along the waveform panel to scrub / seek through the audio in real-time.
