Plogue Bidule [sg_efx] Pack One
After months of faffing I’ve finally got round to prepping, testing and uploading my first efx pack. 8 .bgrp files for Plogue Bidule users everywhere check out.
[sg_efx] Buffer Scratch
An LFO based audio buffer effect. Audio goes in, weird scratchy and odd sounds come out. The LFO speed is tempo locked with presets for a few different tempo divisions. Needs to be synced for it to work.
[sg_efx] BuffScatter
As above but weirder and less controllable. Needs to be synced for it to work.
[sg_efx] Stereo Triple LFO Buffer
An extension of Buffer Scratch. This time three non synced LFOs get busy with your buffer. Needs to be synced for it to work.
[sg_efx] S&H Filter+Comb
2 tempo locked sample and hold LFOs mess with a low pass filter and a delay unit to create filtered comb filter type effects. Needs to be synced for it to work.
[sg_efx] Stereo 6-12db Filter
Boring and bog standard, but pretty handy none the less.
[sg_mod] Log Slider
This isn’t an effect just a handy group. The slider value displayed is converted into a Log shape curve on output. Handy for filters and the like.
[sg_mod] Sync LFO
Another module, this time the Synced LFO used in the effects above. Needs to be synced for it to work.
[sg_mod] Sync S&H
A synced Sample and Hold LFO, as used in the S&H Filter+Comb group and handy to have stand alone. Needs to be synced for it to work.
How To Install
Download the .zip file linked above and expand. Drag the ‘[sg_bidule] Pack One’ folder to the Bidule groups folder. Start Bidule and with any luck it will tell you that there are 8 new groups.
There will be a new folder in your palette at the bottom called [sg]. All the new groups are in there.
Feel free to open them up and improve / hack them as they are the result of late night noodling rather than concerted clean coding so they may be a bit unpredictable, but I like that when it comes to music.
If you use them in a track please let me know.. I’d love to hear what you’ve done.
Obviously these are provided as is, no warranty etc. If you break something, lose work, blow your speakers, whatever it really isn’t my problem OK?
