AD044 Discord4 v4.0.9

Discord4 is a stereo pitch shifter. Originally modeled on the H910, it has long since become its own effect and a studio standby. The all-new version 4 includes major additions to further stretch its capabilities.

Discord4

  • Three Pitch Shifting Algorithms
    Discord4’s two pitch shifters feature with three unique algorithms (Vintage, Clean, and Granular) for different styles of pitch shifting
  • Advanced Parameter Control
    The pitch shifter algorithm’s parameters are adjustable offering precise control over the pitch shifting effect. The P1 Vintage and P2 Clean algorithms have a Buffer size control ranging from 32 to 2048 samples. The G2 Granular algorithm allows the user to adjust the grain size, frequency and randomization.
  • Modulation
    Two of our new FLFO (Flexible Low-Frequency Oscillator) with tempo sync and an arbitrary waveform, capable of a nearly infinite number of modulation shapes using only three controls.
  • Delay
    Two tempo-synced or free-running delays with feedback, cross-feedback, and a sophisticated bandpass filter.
  • ReverbThe delay’s feedback path contains a simple stereo reverbfor “shimmer” effects and further sound exploration.
  • True Stereo Operation
    Discord4 features a true stereo signal path. Both channels can be controlled entirely independently or linked. Each channel’s panorama position is adjustable, providing control over spatial positions and stereo width.
  • Soft Saturation and Limiting
    At different points in the signal path, saturation and limiting are employed for vintage-style warmth, and to allow for extreme feedback experiments without fear of overloading your DAW’s channel.
  • Mix control
    Blend of the processed and the dry input signal.
  • MIDI Note Control
    Six octaves of pitch-shifting can be controlled with MIDI note input.
  • Cross-Platform Preset Format
    Eos utilizes an XML-based preset manager. Work between multiple systems without troubles, make a preset on your desktop machine and paste it to the iOS version with Handoff, easily share your creations with your friends, or make a preset bundle to sell.
  • Fully Resizable Hi-Dpi/Retina GUI
    Discord4’s vector-based GUI is resolution-agnostic, and displays the same on every system and resolution. Easily resize the UI (per instance) to match your visual needs, from postage stamp to poster-sized.

New features of Discord4 v4.0.9

  • Rebuilt with all current SDKs and APIs (mainly to deal with Notarization on macOS and the somewhat fluid nature of the current VST3 situation.)
  • Stability improvements and overall em bettering. 
  • 32-bit version removed from macOS to maintain compatibility with current macOS SDKs. macOS version is now 64-bit only
  • Windows version currently remains available as 32-bit, but you should prepare for the inevitable.
