Description
Dynamic Modulation
Multiply’s core functionality lies in its ability to generate up to six additional voices, each with independently modulated pitch and amplitude. This creates rich, layered textures that are perfect for widening the stereo field or adding subtle motion to a mix. The plugin’s built-in pre-delay section further enhances its capabilities, allowing users to craft modulated echo effects with ease. Additionally, the integrated equalizer features low cut, low shelf, high shelf, and high cut filters, giving users more control over the tonal balance of the processed signal.
Unlike conventional chorus plugins, Multiply’s phase randomization ensures a cleaner output by avoiding the harsh comb filtering often associated with short delay times. This innovation helps maintain the clarity and quality of your sound while preserving a natural chorus effect.
Intuitive Design and Professional Features
Multiply is designed to seamlessly fit into any producer’s workflow, offering a user-friendly interface with visual feedback for the equalizer’s frequency response. The plugin also includes undo and redo functionality, A/B comparisons for quick testing, and a robust preset manager for saving, loading, and categorizing user presets. These features contribute to an efficient and creative sound design process.
