A further post filter (Image filter), also synchronized with the resampler, gives control over amount of aliasing images appearing above resampling frequency when enabledĪdjustable Jitter – An unprecedented feature in the bit crusher’s world which introduces short-period, random fluctuations to the resampling frequency, thus making the process even more sonically interesting by producing a type of harmonic distortion you’ve likely never heard in this context. Two optional anti-alias filters – A very steep low-pass pre filter (Approximative Filter) coupled with the resampling frequency that removes all harmonic content above it, ensuring no aliasing will appear below this frequency in the spectrum. More control than any other effect of this typeĭecimort isn’t just another bitcrusher with only bit resolution and sampling frequency to tweak in fact, it provides far more advanced features than you likely could have ever expected from an effect of this kind, all implemented in stunning quality:
Unwelcome artefacts are completely absent in the processed signal: only the desirable, modeled ones remain. The advanced signal processing algorithms within Decimort simulate the complex behavior of the entire sampling path that exists in every AD/DA converter, and with version 2 comes far greater control over the process!ĭecimort has zero internal aliasing-in fact, the only aliasing present is the emulated aliasing of the classic samplers we modeled when creating it. While this tagline may seem like an oxymoron on the surface, allow us to explain: the Decimort effect unit (available as part of the SilverLine collection of plugins from D16) is a premium grade bit crusher and sample rate reducer with some highly unconventional features. The highest quality low-quality effect you can buy Works in pre or post, along with a resampler module to allow further sculpting of the signal This can be used, for example, to create the impression of a wider stereo stage.Īlternatively, both channels can be linked to set path parameters to the same value for both right and left channels.The coloration and warmth characteristic of circuits from classic samplers recreated with painstaking accuracyĪpproximative anti-alias filter and image filter, adjustable jitter and dithering, and two alternative quantization algorithms for total control over the process This allows all path parameters to be set differently for each channel. These can be used to smooth the sound or remove more of the sonic artefacts introduced into the signal path by the modelling process.ĭecimort can process the right and left channels of a stereo signal completely independently. A further very steep low-pass filter, synchronised to the signal frequency, can be applied at the end of the signal path to absolutely ensure that no unwanted out-of-band signals remain.ĭecimort is also equipped with analog like filters with adjustable resonance that allow further sculpting of the signal.
Undesired artefacts are not present in the processed signal. The only aliasing effect present in the system is the modelled aliasing of the classic samplers we modelled when creating it. The complex and advanced signal processing algorithms within Decimort simulate the behaviour of the whole sampling path which exists in every AD/DA converter.ĭecimort has no internal aliasing. The Decimort effect unit is from the SilverLine collection of plugins. It also acts as the perfect bit crusher with filter. This sound colouration was due to the encoding techniques, lower sample rates, lower bit rate and conversion circuits which these early samplers used.ĭecimort recreates this colouration and adds the vintage sampler magic to any loop, bass line or sound played through it. They added a "grit" and "colour" to the samples and loops they played back which made them sound "Fat" and sit well in a mix. Electronic music producers (especially in Hip-Hop) have always been aware that classic samplers (such as early Akai and EMU units) had a character and sound of their own.
