Solid State Logic has announced the release of Module8, the company’s latest plugin that combines classic modulation effects with modern functionality delivered via SSL advanced workflow, and it’s available in several formats that include VST2, VST3, AAX and AU as part of the SSL Complete subscription from $14.99 per/m (Ts&Cs apply), SSL’s Rent To Own plan, and perpetual purchase via the SSL eStore.
Module8 offers a set of tools for adding texture, depth, and movement to productions. It can be used to enhance vocals, add movement to instruments, and create unique soundscapes.
Jonathan Sandman, SSL Studio plugin product manager, states, “We’re very excited to launch Module8 as it brings SSL’s renowned sound quality and advanced workflow to a modulation FX-based plugin for the first time. We have taken great care to include features like Global LFO and drag-n-drop reordering, which not only speeds up the production process but encourages experimentation with sound design – grab yourself a demo and find out.”
Module8 includes six modulation-based effects driven by LFOs, along with two additional effects on FX returns, resulting in a total of eight processors. Individual Phaser, Flanger, Chorus, Tremolo, Vibrato, and Pan effects are available, each with dedicated controls over LFO rate, depth, and shape. To encourage experimentation, users can customise the order of effects processing via drag-and-drop reordering.
To complement Module8’s modulation effects, “Lo-Fi” and “Space” processing modules are available on two dedicated FX returns. Additionally, parameters like “Stereoise” and “Width” offer users further control of the stereo field.
Each of Module8’s six effects features a dedicated LFO, which offers a range of different shapes, including Sine, Triangle, Saw, Ramp and Square. Phase offset and inversion parameters allow further manipulation of the LFO. “Global” syncs the individual effect processors to the Global LFO, while “Manual” allows Module8’s LFOs to be synced to external LFOs in compatible DAWs. Global LFO parameters like overall depth and mix offer adjustments across all modules, streamlining the workflow.
