Overview

Disperser is a magic all-pass filter plugin designed to manipulate audio phase without changing the signal's gain. It allows users to rotate the phases of their signal to create unique frequency sweeps and transient shaping effects. The plugin smears high energy transients through space and time, offering a distinct approach to shaping audio dynamics and tackling peaks and crest factors.

Features

• Frequency: Adjusts the cutoff frequency of the all-pass filter with a simple click-and-drag interface.
• Amount: Controls the intensity of the effect by increasing the order of the all-pass filter.
• Pinch: Modifies the Q setting of the filter to concentrate the delay around the cutoff frequency.
• Supports both standard plugin appearance and a snapin-appearance for seamless integration with Kilohearts's snapin hosts.
• Provides creative options for transient shaping, enhancing impact on kicks, hi-hats, basses, and other audio elements.

Usage and Application

Disperser can be applied on any track within a DAW to subtly or dramatically reshape transient characteristics and frequency-phase relationships. It is useful for enhancing punch and clarity without altering volume, ideal for percussion, basslines, and effects design.

Testimonials

Users praise Disperser for its unique sonic possibilities and its ability to add power to basslines and transient sounds beyond what typical EQ boosts can achieve.
