Rob Papen RP-Distort (Download) Distortion Effect Plug-In Software

RP-Distort is not just a distortion unit, but much more. The distortion unit inside RP-Distort can be combined with an analog modelled filter, compressor and widener unit.

These units can be re-order, but also can be turned on or off. So in case you only want a great analog modelled filter... RP-Distort can offer this. Or only the unique widener unit which is great for widening a boring mono track.

On top of that, the controls can be modulated using midi sources or by one of the 4 build in LFO?s that can sync to your host tempo..

The distortion unit offers 33 distortion types included ring modulator, FM, two band distortions and lo-fi. Inside this section you can also find the EQ and noise-gate.

RP-Distort is in fact a wicked FX unit that will distort or alter your tracks in an inspirational way!

• Octave 2
• Octave effect type 2,Frequency Frequency of the octave effect.Amount, Amount of octave effect.
• Power
• Power wave-shaping effect.Drive, drive for the power effectAmount, Power mixing amount.
• Rectify
• Rectifies the signal, by multiplying the negative signalRectification Rectification of the negative signal, from -100% (no rectification), 0% (half rectification) to 100% (full rectification) Amount, Rectification mixing amount.
• Ring Modulation
• The ring modulates (multiplies) different signals together depending on the type.Type Sine, Saw, Sqr & Tri, multiplies the input with the set oscillator.Frequency Sets the oscillator frequency.Amount Sets the ring modulation amount.
• Saturate
• Saturation effect.Saturation Saturation levelAmount Saturation mixing amount
• SoftLimit
• Soft-limiter effectAmount Soft-limiter amount
• Squarify
• Squares the signal (turns it to a square wave), and then lowpass filter it.Negative Amount the negative signal is turned to a square wavePositive Amount the positive signal is turned to a square waveFilter Amount this square wave is lowpass filtered.
• Transient
• Distorts the transients, i.e. the beginnings of sounds.Range Transient rangeAmount Transient distortion amount.
• Tube Simulator
• Tube distortion effect, by saturating, limiting, rectifying and bandpass filtering the input.Limit, Hard limiter threshold.Rect Amount of rectification, from -100% (no change), 0% (half) to 100% (full).Saturate Amount of saturation..Tone Frequency of the band pass filter.Emphasis Bandwidth of the band pass filter.
• Atan
• Mathematically determined distortion effect based, which distorts the sound by waveshaping using an arc-tan function.
• Clipper 2
• This effect provides another interpretation of a clipping distortion. Symmetry control is added for further sound shaping.
• FM
• This effect uses the input to modulate the frequency of an oscillator generated by RP DISTORT.
• Waveshaper
• The waveshaper effects waveshapes the low & high signal differently and then pass it through a low-pass filter.
• Two Band
• The last seven distortion effects come in two-band varieties. These are Two Band Cos, Fuzz, Limiter, OverDrive, Power, Rectification and Saturation.
• The two band varieties work in the same manner as their single-band version but are able to process two different parts of the input signal separately. RP DISTORT splits the input signal in a low and a high frequency band. The split frequency determines the cutover point. The low and high band are the then separately distorted, and then mixed back together, using the mix control,
• The two band effects allow you for instance to maintain a solid tight bass with screaming high frequency material on top from a single wide band input signal.

• 4 Band Equalizer effect.
• On/Off function.
• Low 125 Hz volume | Mid 1 500 Hz volume | Mid 2 2 kHz volume | High 8 kHz volume.

• Noise gate unit, the noise-gate is an audio effect that removes any sound (gates) that is below a threshold volume.
• On / Off function.
• Threshold / Attack / Hold / Release paramaters.

• RP-Distort has a low & high pass filter, in the order low-pass filter then high-pass filter.
• On/Off function.
• 12 / 24dB Selects between a 12dB and a 24dB filterLow Frequency of the low pass filter.
• Low Q Resonance of the low pass filter.
• High Frequency of the high pass filter.
• High Q Resonance of the high pass filter.

• audio compressor with on/off selector
• threshold, ratio, attack, release and volume paramters

• 4x free modulation routings with amount control.
• 4x LFO with, tempo based sync mode, waveform, speed, human feel, symmetry control
• bypass button for all active modulations
• global amount control for all active modulations
