WOOT by Bram Bos has now been made available to MacOS users (previously iOS only), currently available for only $5.99. WOOT is available for FREE if you’ve already purchases it for iOS.
WOOTT is an Audio Unit plugin (AUv3 audio effect) inspired by the infamous OTT sound.
WOOTT uses a triple band dynamics algorithm with simultaneous downwards AND upwards compression, and adds a dedicated limiter to each band. So what’s all that techno mumbojumbo good for?
- First, it slams all the loud, dominant aspects of your sound
- Next it blows up all the subtle quiet bits that were hiding below
As a result, it’s perfect for:
- Blowing up average sounds to massive proportions
- Giving an aggressive sharp edge to synthesizer filters
- Bringing out subtle details and movement that would otherwise get lost in the mix (in a hamfisted way, though)
- Dusting off old breakbeat samples and loops
- Hyping specific aspects of your synth lines
- Making generally boring things more interesting
Features include:
- AUv3 audio unit effect plugin
- Universal: iOS, iPadOS, MacOS (M1, M2, Intel)
- iOS/iPadOS: can be used in all AUv3 compatible hosts
- MacOS: plugin for Logic Pro X (and other hosts which support the AUv3 standard)
- Note: this is NOT a VST plugin
- Multi-output (requires compatible host) for post-processing the individual bands
- Low-resource, so stack as many of them as you like – “[WO]OTT all the things!”
- Downwards *and* upwards compressors (a rare feature on conventional dynamics plugins)
- Smart soft limiter per band, adapts to its own band’s specific settings
- Mono switch makes low-band signal monaural for an extra tight bass
NOTE: This is not a subtle effect. If subtle and minimal are what you’re looking for, this is not the droid for you.
