THE RINGS
A ring around a knob is a lane moving it, in that lane’s colour: you see what moves, and how far.
SOUND OVERFLOWSOFTWARE FOR SOUND DESIGNERS
EFFECT / AUDIO FX / V1.0
A dual filter built as an effect. Four filter models, four ways to wire them and four lanes of motion you draw yourself, from a slow sweep to a gate locked on your kick.

AUDIO DEMOS / 12
CUTO is not the filter section of a synth bolted onto an effect. It is built for audio from the start: two filters with real character, wired the way you want, and a modulation engine that makes them move with your track.
Draw a rhythm, follow the kick, sweep slowly over sixteen bars or let CHAOTIC add some life: every movement is shown live, rings on the knobs and curves over the spectrum, so you always see what the filters are doing.
A ring around a knob is a lane moving it, in that lane’s colour: you see what moves, and how far.
Both filter curves over the output spectrum, with the live cutoff of each: what you hear, drawn.
Exchange the two filters in one click: the order flips in SERIES, left and right swap in STEREO.
Every knob is smoothed over 10 ms and every model change is faded: automate anything.
UP CLOSE
Captured from the real interface, while it plays.
LADDER, SCREAM, VELVET and GROWL are four filter circuits, each with its own character. A model picks its usual modes, from LP 24 to NOTCH and the continuous MORPH of the VELVET, and a model change fades over 10 ms, so you can switch while the music plays.
SERIES, PARALLEL, STEREO or MID/SIDE. PARALLEL is a crossfade, not a sum: no +6 dB bump when both filters meet. Both curves are drawn over the output spectrum with the live cutoff of each, and SWAP A/B exchanges the two filters in one click.
Seven shapes, SIN, TRI, SAW, RMP, SQR, S&H and RND, synced to your host or free, with PW, PHASE and SMOOTH. Each lane drives up to three targets, and a ring around each knob shows how far it moves, in the lane’s colour.
STEP lanes play the steps you draw, with SWING, PROB, GLIDE, PHASE and SMOOTH. In Trance Gate a STEP lane on BALANCE chops between the two filters, locked to the tempo.
The detector listens to the input or a sidechain, and the ENV lanes read it: FOLLOW the level, GATE the gate, SHOT every hit, a sudden jump above the average of the last 400 ms. BAND listens to the kick or to the hats, and TRIG restarts an LFO or STEP lane on each hit.
CHAOTIC lets the filters drift on their own. 10 to 20 % gives life to a static filter; 60 % and more is a haunted room, the preset filmed here.
