Universal Audio Releases OTO Biscuit 8-bit Effects, Fuchs Overdrive Supreme, and bx_subsynth Plugins for UAD-2 and Apollo Platforms
SCOTTS VALLEY, CA • March 14, 2017 — Universal Audio is pleased to announce the release of UAD Software v9.1. Alongside the new UA-developed SSL® 4000 E Channel Strip and Moog® Multimode Filter Collections, this latest software release features three new plugins from UA's esteemed direct developers –– Softube's OTO® BISCUIT 8-bit Effects, plus Brainworx's bx_subsynth Subharmonic Synthesizer and Fuchs® Overdrive Supreme 50 Amplifier plugins.
OTO BISCUIT 8-Bit Effects –– $249
Developed by Softube and available exclusively for UAD-2 hardware and Apollo interfaces, the OTO BISCUIT 8-bit Effects Plug-In is an exacting emulation of the hard-to-find hardware that quickly gained favor with EDM producers, DJs, and remixers with its lush soundscapes, waveshaping, and pitch-shifting effects.
The OTO BISCUIT 8-bit Effects Plug-In allows for creative mangling of sources on a bit-per-bit level. Users can invert or mute individual bits for a wide range of classic to twisted lo-fi effects, add chiseled crunch to kick and snare drums for instant character, or dial down the sample rate clock to generate funky, trashy aliasing textures on any instrument.
OTO BISCUIT 8-bit Effects Plug-In Key Features:
- Exacting emulation of this unique, modern lo-fi effect featuring both the digital and analog circuits
- Versatile 8-bit crushing with individually switchable and invertible bits
- Analog stereo multimode filter with resonance control
- Brain-mode features 4 different lo-fi effects: Waveshaper, Delay, Pitch-Shifting, and Step-Filter sequencer
- Emulated true diode-clipping on input
- Available exclusively for UAD-2 hardware and Apollo interfaces
Brainworx bx_subsynth Subharmonic Synthesizer –– $149
Developed by Brainworx, the bx_subsynth Subharmonic Synthesizer Plug-In takes its sonic cues from the iconic dbx 120XP Subharmonic Synthesizer*. Born in the days of disco, subharmonic synthesizers helped overcome the low-end limitations of vinyl, giving DJs, sound designers, and club mixers pounding kick drums and booty-shaking basslines that defined dance music.
The bx_subsynth Subharmonic Synthesizer Plug-In enables producers to easily add massive low-end punch without affecting the midrange. Its third synthesis band extends the upper end of the synthesis range from 56 Hz up to 80 Hz, allowing for the processing of a wider range of sources, from electronic kick drums to bass synths and more.
Brainworx bx_subsynth Subharmonic Synthesizer Plug-In Key Features:
- Three-band subharmonic synthesis with individual additive parameter adjustment for adding massive low-end punch without affecting other frequencies
- Dual-mode saturation section with Filtering and Intensity controls
- Mid or Stereo Synthesis Input control allows subharmonics to be generated on either mono or stereo information
- M/S section with Mono Maker and Stereo Width allows precise control over the stereo field
Fuchs Overdrive Supreme 50 Amplifier –– $149
