Mastrcode Music has released Substrate - Subharmonic Bass Booster, a free VST effect plugin for Windows.

Substrate is an effect plugin especially designed for boosting the low frequency range of bass sounds and instruments. It uses a special technique to add more harmonics to the low end frequency range of a sound by generating these additional harmonics based on a pre-set fundamental frequency. A boost control will add these harmonics to the low end frequency range of the sound. The higher the boost amount, the more harmonics will be generated and amplified. These harmonics then can be mixed to the original dry sound to give the low end of the sound more "boost".

The second advantage: if the pre-set fundamental frequency is set exactly to the fundamental of the sound, the generated harmonics will create a "psycho-acoustic" effect that may give your brain the feelings, to perceive the sub-frequency range of a sound on weak playback systems that can't produce such low frequencies (like weak laptop speakers or mobile devices), even if these low frequencies are not really audible on these systems.

Features:

  • Frequency control to set the fundamental frequency in Hz from which the harmonics will be generated. This is a special designed filter to only leave the set fundamental frequency of the processed sound. All other frequencies above and below the set frequency will be cut out.
  • Boost control to generate additional harmonics based on the set fundamental frequency. The higher the amount of this control, the more harmonics will be generated and amplified.
  • Invert Phase control. In some cases the processed signal can cause phasing issues or phase cancellations when it will be mixed back to the original signal. Inverting the phase of the processed signal can prevent such phasing issues. And in some other cases inverting the phase also can result in an even fatter low end.
  • Boost Mix control to set the level of the processed signal to mix it to the unprocessed dry signal.
  • Dry Mix control to set the level of the unprocessed dry signal.
  • Mute Boost control to mute the processed signal.
  • Mute Dry control to mute the dry signal.
  • Main Volume control for setting the main output volume level.

Price: Free.
