As you can see in the illustration, there is a “joystick” graphic that controls the contribution of the four FX modules to the output. A 15-day trial version and an online manual are also available on the United Plugins website.Orbitron is another fun audio mangler from JMG (aka Jason Gibbins) that provides up to four different simultaneous modulation FX with adjustable blending that itself can be automated using DAW automation, or run using three built-in modes.

The plug-in runs under macOS and Windows in AU, VST, VST3 and AAX formats. The mammoth 78% discount offer is active until March 9, 2021. United Plugins Orbitron is currently sold at an introductory price of EUR 29, down from EUR 129. It’s also a really good deal at the moment.

Other cool features include 64-bit internal processing at all sample rates, smart bypass and latency compensation, and intelligent sleep mode where the plug-in detects its idle and stops processing to save CPU.Īll in all, Orbitron is quite promising. This can add resonance and reverb effects. You can also adjust the size of the delays in the feedback loops. Other controls include a Feedback parameter which feeds the signal from each FX section into the next, in a circular fashion. You can always use just one modulation effect in isolation. Of course, the pad’s presence doesn’t mean you always have to use it. They can sync up to your project tempo, get randomized, or adjusted manually. The crossfades happen inside the X/Y circle pad at the centre. Pair that with liberal crossfades between the modes, maybe with a touch of DAW automation, and you can really come up with something interesting.

Or apply 4 of the same modes with subtle differences between settings for a richer sound. With this arsenal, you can blend up to 4 different modes in a giant hybrid. These include all the choruses, flangers, phasers, and the sorts you can think of. Orbitron features 4 effects sections with 12 modes each.
