![]() Then, there’s a control that’s the same as the classic Akai method of setting the sample buffer size… but for this one, you specify the buffer as a musical note (six octave range). They stack, for really high or low bends. You’ve got two pitch controls, one giving you note intervals in half-steps, and the other being a pure pitch bend. The crossover is very slightly ‘clever’ in a way the retro stuff isn’t, for the purpose of making it sound more retro and less DAW-like: it keeps the presence very high while slightly masking the high frequency edge of the ‘note’ you get.īut then PitchNasty goes way beyond, in that Airwindows way. Things like drums love being timestretched or repitched in this way! It’s a whole retro tone, which PitchNasty starts off with. Turns out if you do that, your results tend to be very punchy, direct and intense, except for the weird robotic overtone that’s welded to the sound like it’s a musical note. Some folks really seem to crave that stuff, and there’s a reason. Instead, you got things like time stretches that just plain looped a tight time cycle and overlapped it, producing a weird digital honk. This plugin brings you the heart of old school digital like your classic Akai stuff, back when they did not have the luxury of doing anything elegantly or nicely. It’s throwing digital trash at you so hard it becomes a musical note!Īnd therein lies the secret of PitchNasty. It’s just that the rest of the time it’s throwing a nasty, loud sample-glitch, at audio rates. ![]() Though this is a sound mangler, there’s no bit crushing here, and in fact most of the time it’s delivering a very high-res immediate and punchy pitch shift, super clean and tight. TL DW: PitchNasty is a primitive pitch shifter that also has primitive time-stretch artifacts. ![]()
