Vertigo Sound VSE-4 v1.0.226-R2R screenshot
Team R2R | 2024.02.18 | 32.2 MB
The VSE-4 plugin is inspired by the musical sound of the VSE-2 EQ, but presents its own unique sonic identity, integrated in a highly flexible user interface concept. With a fully parametric and modular design and its unique Saturation and FM Drive controls, the VSE-4 provides precise and musical EQing with analog sound, as well as exceptional control over the nonlinear behaviour of the filters. This enables the creation of more complex frequency-based distortion effects.

WaveShaper ALUMINIUM  WHITE METAL MkII WAV-FANTASTiC screenshot
FANTASTiC | 17 February 2024 | 1 MB
ALUMINIUM / WHITE METAL | sharp digital analogue Aluminum and White Metal are two variations of some percussive sounds I made using a Waldorf Blofeld and a Sherman FilterBank.

The sounds are very synthetic, with boomy low end and fast attacks, and despite being quite similar, you will quickly hear that one is dirtier, more overdriven than the other, thanks to the analogue rawness of the Sherman Filterbank. The pack uses 24bit/48khz, stereo Wav files.

!llmind Special Limited Edition Hats Off (Hi-Hat Loops And One-Shots) WAV screenshot
18/02/2024 | WAV | 29 MB
Hi-Hats are the groove. In modern day music, especially trap, the hi-hats dictate the groove and the way people move. I feel that the hi-hat patterns derive from the feel of marching band music. These grooves dictate a specific energy and pocket for the listener to follow and for the artist to paint a picture to. One of the biggest challenges is to determine what type of pattern to use when creating a beat. There are unlimited ways to approach a hi-hat pattern. I wanted to help solve that problem by creating a set of HI-HAT LOOPS that you can easily plug into a melody or drum pattern you already started.

Rick Rubin: In the Studio by Jake Brown screenshot
English | Publisher: ECW Press, 2009 | PDF + epub (conv.) | 266 pages | 3 MB
There is no greater enigma than Rick Rubin working in record production today. As mysterious personally as the Buddhist religion he practices, Rubin has made one thing crystal clear: the records he produces are sonically and stylistically beyond reproach. MTV has called Rubin “the most important producer of the last 20 years,” while Rolling Stone ventured even further, deeming Rubin the most successful “of any genre.”
