Glitch

Reviewed By mark77 [all]

Version reviewed: 1.3 beta on Windows

I discovered this effect by accident and it has been a bit of a secret weapon of mine for about 5 months now. Just when i was ready to give up on waiting for an original effect to come along, i discovered this thing. The version i have is free though i believe years ago people paid for this? I cant believe thats its free?!!! It's insane! Glitch is one of those rarities in life when you think that something is simply too good to be true. This effect can do so many things so well and so simply thats its mindboggling.

Every time i use thins thing i end up with random effects that sound so damn cool and original. It's dead easy to use, it has a cool randomise feature, lots of knows to tweak, almost a limitless array of variables so something original is just around the corner. In a world where we're inundates with literally hundreds of effects that do the same thing (eqs, compressors, delays, etc) this thing is a welcome breath of fresh air! It is suitable for almost any type of electronic music to inject a bit of originality into your tracks. Its also a great time saver because the sound effect that you can achieve within SECONDS with this sound like they took HOURS to program.

If you lay these stutter and weird effects over your track for a few seconds people who hear it will think you just spent the last week hunched over a computer cutting and slicing things, whereas you didnt, you used glitch! I simply cant praise thins enough.. i love it and will forever love it. The interface is busy but cool. The sound quality is excellent. One word.. perfect!!!

This is what I wrote to the developers. I bought the plugin.

probably you think that most of your customers don't know electronic music, and this is very bad. Even if they can use your preset randomly to make some noise in the dance hall, I find that your plugs are nice and could be used in serious composition too. So WHY YOU DONT WRITE PARAMETERS EXPLICATIONS IN THE GLITCH MANUAL? For example, in the Granular time stretch you call "stretcher", what does GM series of control means?

Thanks for some serious support,
Alessandro Ratoci.

P.S. seems that you are missing the step duration, and steps are forced to be 16th note. Pretty big limitation, is it?

Very cool guys:

Hi Alessandro,

I do agree that detailed descriptions of each effect are missing from
the manual. I will try to add these in the near future, to better
explain what everything does.

I have tried to put tool tips on almost every part of the plugin, so
you can hover your mouse cursor over something for a few moments to
get a basic description.

In the Stretcher effect, "GM" is "grain modulation". There is an
envelope follower which follows the amplitude of the input signal, and
then you can optionally modulate the grain size in sync with this. It
can help to give some interesting dynamic variations in tone and
character on the stretching effect. Hopefully this becomes somewhat
obvious when simply playing around with the parameters for a few
moments.

Either way, you should simply play around with the effects, tweak some
parameters, and see what happens. If it sounds cool, then it's all
good. This is an experimental glitch plugin after all, not a perfectly
accurate scientific tool. It's intended that you should experiment and
have fun :)

Kind regards,
