spacedad

this is my vst plugin page.(if you don't know what a vst is then look here) i use synthedit to make them.and they are windows only.
most of them will be free,with a few low price ones now and then to help me with costs.
they've all been tested on winXP SP2,but i can't guarantee they'll work on every system.so give 'em a try and let me know if you have any problems.(but don't be too hard on me if they eat your brains.)

dadskin1(free skin for poise)

this is not a plugin,but a skin i made for a nice little drum machine called poise
you can find some other skins here or visit the poise forum
and here's a little poise drumkit i made using the audacity signal generators... audacious2.zip.have fun!

unicycle by spacedad + mbreges

the kvr developer challenge 2009 is over!
unicycle came 36th.thanks everyone who voted.

it's an 8-bit wav-synth with 300 four-cycle waveforms to choose from,inspired by niffla's fourcycle synth.
i'm really pleased with it.me and mbreges spent along time on it,so i hope you like it.
the 'drawable' ADSR drawbars are connected to AMP,PITCH,FILTER and BADNESS,and the double LFO's make for nice rhythms,tempo-syncable or free running.
they can be subtle or can achieve extreme speed taking it into self-oscillation for nasty aliasing noise.
the awesome filter is by rick jelliffe and there's also sample-rate and bit-rate reducers and a great decimator by antto.



take me to the kvr developer challenge 2009!

shekrs.zip(free) (latest v0.24)

this is the 3rd in the 'reception models' series (original models by jacky-lee).
based on his loo-roll,yogurtpot and papercup shakers.
5 shakers playable on midi notes C#2,D#2,F#2,G#2 and A#2.
some nice grooves can be made using the speed,pitch and volume modulation controls,
anything ranging from regular shakin' to shakinsanity! It also has highpass and lowpass filters,distortion,bitcrushing and panning.
(manual included.)

jackys-soundplayer(free)

just a simple wav player written for jacky-lee and anyone else who wants to
play sounds with the minimum of fuss with nice big buttons!
it should play most 16 or 24bit wavs.
tip: if you put your samples in the jackys-soundplayer/jackys-soundplayer folder it will find them easier.
some of jackys sounds are included for your listening pleasure.
available only from midimusiker.it's free but you need to sign up and sign in first.
it's a cool new german site with some special releases you won't find anyway else.
so pop along and say hello to the Raum-Deutschens!my page is here, spacedad's midi-musiker forum.

pots.7z(free)

based on a 'yoghurt-pot drumkit' by jacky-lee.6 pots playable on midi notes C,D,E,F,G and A.(on any octave.)
with various pitchshifting,distortion and filter fun.just in time for xmas!

e-type.7z(free)

an experimental synth using mostly evm modules,a little tribute to etric van mayer.

frankenstein2.zip and franklets.zip(free)

he's back!
a new gui,many improvements from version 1.0, honed it down and made it more my own,
should be more stable now,but presets won't be compatible.
thanks to runagate and pinkjimiphoton for the great new presets!

head=formant synth with waveshaping.
body=6 op fm synth with multipliers.
heart=5 osc synth with lfo's.
arms=fm osc.
legs=casio noise-type synth.
lightning=delay modulation.
charge=delay with distortion.
brain=main control room.
(volumes for each synth+master volume+adsr with lowpass filter/limiter/saturation).

flanklets were dismembered by runbeerrun
allows the use of the main parts with much less cpu than big frankenstein2.
great idea,many thanks to him for doing these for all to share.
flanklet1 is franks head,for franklet2 he ripped out his heart and sewed on the arms
and franklet3 is the body with a brain ontop.not for the faint hearted!

bubllsy.zip(free)

a crazy harsh-sounding synth made by jacky-lee,with only a little help from me.

KiTR.zip(free)

based on a rubberband guitar made by jacky-lee in reception class.
it's sample-based with some lo-fi pitch-shifting and distortion capabilities.
twangtastic!
(came 21st in the kvrDC07!)

frankenstein_1.0.zip(free)

a monster synth made up of badly sewn together body parts.
(old version frankenstein_0.92 is here in case anyone needs it.)

superubbish.zip(free)

more rubbish,this time polyphonic,came 26th in the kvr06

rubbish.zip(free)

rubbish was my first vst.a dirty little mono synth.

my first step sequencer is available from niall moody(free)

my first step sequencer is a simple 16-(or 8-)step sequencer vst aimed at children. It was written by niall moody in conjunction with jacky-lee and me.
it comes with a shuffle mode and a note randomise button, as well as a scale-forcing control, to make it so that you can only select notes within a particular scale.
the plugin syncs to the host's transport, so to start it playing, hit play in your host.
it's written in C++ for both Windows and OS X.
of course niall did all the clever stuff and very kindly translated all jacky's ideas into reality, which was no mean feat as we kept changing our minds and made some impossible demands. many thanks niall,your're a (very talented) saint!
