What VolumeShaper 7 does
The plugin is organized around a drawable volume LFO that is triggered, with wave shapes that can be curved, stepped or ramped and placed at precision timing. Waves can be flipped, resized, moved and randomized, copied and pasted between any Shapers, and edits can be undone or redone without limit. A 2x/3x button doubles or triples a pattern, and selection skewing increases intensity over time. Multiband volume shaping gives separate LFO control over lows, mids and highs.
Triggering is handled by Locks Beat Sync, which keeps the LFO loop length in beats and bars with sample-accurate sync from 1/128 to 32 bars, and by the External Sidechain Input, which follows any rhythm. VolumeShaper 7 runs inside Cableguys’ ShaperBox 3 and can use the other Shapers in that plugin. The full set often travels as a magnet link or torrent in .rar and .iso repacks.
Key features
- Trigger and sidechain. The LFO can follow an external sidechain input, a MIDI trigger or any track, so a bass can be ducked by a kick pattern that is not four-to-the-floor.
- Beat sync and loop length. Loop length is set in beats, bars or Hertz and milliseconds, and the LFO stays locked to the track tempo.
- Wave editing tools. Waves can be flipped, resized, moved and randomized, and selections can be skewed to raise intensity over time.
- Lookahead smoothing. A lookahead trigger with pre-smoothing and an additional Smooth control reduce clicks when waves are switched or triggered.
- Multiband shaping and mix. Separate LFO control is provided for lows, mids and highs, with a dry/wet mix for each band and a Master Mix control.
- Interface and display. The interface can be resized from 75% to 200% with Retina/HiDPI support, and an oscilloscope view with Magnitude mode and Freeze option is included.
