Disclaimer: this plugin will only work on 64-bit windows machines!
Download the .dll file in the bin/ directory and place it into your DAW's VST folder.
Previous versions of the plugin are also available, in case you need them.
Note: you don't need to compile the source code if you just want to use the plugin, just download the .dll.
Make sure you have Cargo installed on your computer (the Rust compiler). Then in the root of the repository run cargo build. Once Cargo is done building, there should be a ERASE_v0_1_0.dll file in the newly created debug/ directory. Place this file into your DAW's VST folder.
Remember the old version of HYSTERESIS that had all those features that I mercilessly removed? Well here's one of them as a stand-alone plugin: the erase knob. What is it? It's a slew-limiter where you can choose between softer or harder slew clipping. What does that mean? It's a sort of dirty distorted low-pass filter where things tend to look more like triangle waves the more you filter them.
How to get a similar sound as the erase knob in HYSTERESIS v0.2.0: turn hardness to 0.5, post to 0dB, inv/dry/wet to 0.5 and play with erase knob.
How to emulate the sound of the old HYSTERESIS plugin: chain an instance of HYSTERESIS v0.3.1 or newer and an instance of ERASE.
- erase: amount of slew applied
- hardness: hardness of the clipping function used for slewing
- post gain: amplify or attenuate after the effect
- inv/dry/wet: crossfades between dry - wet, dry, wet. Using it on the inverted mode (dry - wet) is useful for isolating transients.
