This month’s exclusive Sound Collective community giveaway is Yum Audio’s FX plug-in LoFi Pitch Dropout, for Mac and Windows. Normally sold for £65/$90, LoFi Pitch Dropout is free to download for Sound Collective members from 5th August 2021 to 7th October 2021 (4pm BST), and comes with a 25% discount code to redeem against any product in the Yum Audio range.
LoFi Pitch Dropout is a plug-in that emulates a virtual tape getting stuck randomly and catching up again. It has six intriguing modes: Cassette Flux, Heavy Drop, Driplets, Broken VHS, Vintage Player and Pyramid, which will all add an extra layer of character to any track. The user can vary the rate of dropout — from very rarely to extremely often — or they can control it precisely through the dropout button, which can be automated to sync to the beat.
As well as LoFi Pitch Dropout, Sound Collective members can also grab a 25% discount code to redeem against anything in the Yum Audio range.
“This month’s Sound Collective offer comes from a new face on the scene – Yum Audio”, says Sound Collective Product Manager Jonathan Campbell. “They’ve kindly offered up their extremely fun and versatile FX plugin – LoFi Pitch Dropout.
“I’ve had so much fun using this plugin! it’s essentially a way to intentionally add pitch, volume and timing errors to your sounds, as if they were being played through some kind of faulty tape machine — instantly making any melody sound more interesting and organic. It comes with six different modes to stretch, mangle and disrupt your sounds for a genuine lofi feel. There’s also a chance meter which can increase or decrease the likelihood of this happening. When automated you can get some really interesting things happening. The GUI is also super clean and simple, making this a quick way to add some extra spice to your music.”
Sound Collective members can download LoFi Pitch Dropout from their Novation account and redeem their 25% discount against anything in the Yum audio range between 5th August 2021 and 7th October 2021 (4pm BST).
