Tone2 BiFilter2 is Now Freeware

Press release follows:

"After nearly 20 years BiFilter has become vintage and even though it's no longer profitable to remain a commercial product, we feel that more people should deserve an opportunity to enjoy this useful tool. That's why we decided to release one last update and turn it into freeware. This means that BiFilter is now available for free and you are allowed to share it with your friends. We want to say a big THANK YOU to all customers who support the development of our products, by purchasing our software!"

What is BiFilter?

BiFilter is a stereo multi-mode filter with a selection of 47 different sounding filter types. These filters are known from our famous Gladiator synthesizer. You can combine all filters with 8 additional distortion types, FM, AM, wave-shaping and lo-fi effects to create new sounds. A high precision display shows the frequency response of the filter in real-time. Since you can always see and hear what's happening, BiFilter is very user-friendly.

Pivot FM Synthesizer【VST + AU + CLAP】

Every single sound made with Pivot: https://fors.fm/pivot
No effects besides our Sala reverb: https://fors.fm/sala



"Pivot is an FM synth with three operators, one morphing filter and zero algorithms, designed to be straightforward and joyous to use. Years of research, development and deep love of FM synthesis has gone into picking just the right balance of flexibility and simplicity.

It marks another milestone in a long journey of making FM synthesizers that deviate from the norm. Much like its predecessors, it does not aim to replicate or succeed anything but to explore FM in a slightly different way.

Lagom
In Swedish, this means 'just right', and it's exactly how we feel about 3OP FM. It's a great balance of being able to make complex timbres while being quick to program.

Zero algorithms
Instead of choosing between a range of pre-defined algorithms, Pivot lets you continuously route the top modulator's output between the other pair. This makes sound design a truly explorable process where you don't have to make any decisions up front.

Best of both worlds
With a resonant 4-pole morphing filter, Pivot lets you carve out frequencies in an intuitive way that feels right at home. Smoothly mixing between Lowpass, Bandpass and Highpass brings a flair that perfectly pairs with the most extreme of FM tones.

Matrix modulation
Modulate the FM controls to your heart's content with 2 LFOs and 2 ADSR envelopes in a flexible mod matrix routing with up to 6 destinations at once.

... and yes, you can change the color theme."

EaganMatrix - Analysis of the "Abyss Lands" Osmose preset

"Here's a rather complete analysis of the "abyss lands" preset that is the default preset of the Osmose. This assumes you have basic EaganMatrix programming experience. If you can understand what is going on here - you can understand many of the Osmose presets that use similar techniques of building up a preset in layers. The preset files (requires the Osmose 2.1.21/DSP 10.52 firmware to run) I used to successively build up the preset can be found here for those who want to dig in more: https://drive.google.com/drive/folder..."

U-He Repro: 64 Dark Presets + Patterns. No Talk Sound Demo

video upload by Anton Anru

"📟 Analog Mechanics is a collection of 64 sounds with sequences for U-He Repro-1. The collection focuses on a more metallic and electric character, blending it with the analog warmth of the synthesizer.
The synth’s rich distortion and warm delay bring bright color and depth to the atmosphere. Expect heavy detuning, rhythmic motion, drive, FX textures, and also more restrained yet dark tones throughout the bank.
👤 The author of the soundset is skendi (Arseniy Pushkov).

📦 Get these presets: https://antonanru.sellfy.store/p/repr...

🎼 All patches are in sequence mode, offering not just timbres but melodic patterns that bring immediate musical ideas to life. Simply hold a key or use the keyboard to transpose the sequence, and you'll have a synth part ready to integrate into your tracks.
Whether you use the sequences as-is or tweak them to create your own unique melodies, all presets are royalty-free and ready for production.

🎚 ModWheel adds expressiveness—brightening the sound, shifting tone, or adding extra movement for dynamic performance.

🧿 The soundset spans a wide range of tones, from warm, distorted and detuned textures to soft, clean, punchy, dark, bright, deep, and airy timbres.
🧬 The soundset is suitable for many genres: ambient, electronica, darkwave, gothwave, IDM, EBM, deep, progressive, techno, breaks, jungle, drum and bass, and others.

💡 Ensure that you are using the latest software version.
Installation:
You should put the «Anton Anru Presets - Analog Mechanics (by skendi)» folder in the Repro 1 presets folder.
By default its path is:
Mac: /Users/(user name)/Library/Audio/Presets/u-he/Repro-1
Windows: /ProgramData/U-he/Repro-1.data/Presets/Repro-1/
Another easy way to find the folder with Repro 1 presets is the following: run the plugin, go to the presets section, right-click on any folder or preset, in the pop-up menu choose «Reveal in Finder» (mac) or Open in Explorer (win)"

Introducing Halogen FM by GForce Software

video upload by GForce Software

"FM synthesis is notoriously difficult to program — complex, technical, and often unintuitive. Halogen FM changes that. We built it to remove the barriers that have kept so many from exploring the raw, expressive power of FM.

Instead of diving into confusing algorithms or endless parameters, Halogen invites you to discover sound through play. It’s a generative instrument that responds to instinct, not instruction — giving you evolving textures, organic tones, and sonic surprises without requiring deep synth knowledge.

Halogen FM lets everyone tap into the beauty and unpredictability of FM synthesis — whether you’re a seasoned producer or just curious. Your ears lead the way, and happy accidents are part of the design.

Thicken Kicks, Bass, and Synths with OCELOT Octaver

video upload by Fuse Audio Labs

Press release follows:

Fuse Audio Labs offers OCELOT Octaver as octave-down weight- and octave-up presence-delivering plugin with precision and ease

DUESSELDORF, GERMANY: truly analog-sounding plugins developer Fuse Audio Labs is proud to announce availability of OCELOT Octaver — offered up as an octave-down weight- and octave-up presence-delivering plugin with precision and ease, duly designed to add deep punch to kicks, extra growl to bass, or subtle enhancements to synth lines as a streamlined tool that reshapes source material in powerful, specific ways with zero latency and minimal CPU (Central Processing Unit) load — as of June 19…

OCELOT Octaver offers full control over the frequency focus of each octave via dedicated TUNE controls — unlike many traditional octave effects, enabling optimal low-end extension and top-end lift to be dialled in with precision as a result of this being so successfully implemented. Its Listen mode, meanwhile, aids in identifying the exact range being enhanced, enabling highly targeted and musical results.

Anchored around a state-of-the-art algorithm, OCELOT Octaver maintains signal integrity throughout. The plugin delivers consistent, phase-stable performances — even on fast transients or harmonically complex sources, contrasting wildly with the warbly, glitch-prone behaviour common to many octavers out there. The outcome is tight, clean octave content that blends naturally into the mix.

OCELOT Octaver’s detailed visual feedback supports confident decision-making at all times. There are separate level meters for each octave, the output signals providing clear level referencing, while the collapsable FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) view reveals the effect’s spectral footprint. Furthermore, octave solo options, smart key shortcuts, and global level control complete a workflow built for flexibility, precision, and speed.

“Octavers are often either too simplistic or too unpredictable to be truly useful in serious productions,” proffers Fuse Audio Labs CEO Reimund Dratwa. “We set out to change that, offering precision tuning, rock-solid tracking, and deep sound-shaping tools in a plugin that feels as creative as it is reliable,” he continues, concluding: “It’s all about inspiring results, without it getting in the way.”

OCELOT Octaver is available at a significantly discounted introductory promo price of only $29.00 USD until July 19, 2025 — rising thereafter to its regular price of $69.00 USD — directly from its dedicated webpage, which includes more in-depth information, here: https://fuseaudiolabs.com/ocelotoctaver_utmpr.html

14-day trial versions of all Fuse Audio Labs plugins without any limitations are available to download from here: https://fuseaudiolabs.com/plugins.html
