Nu-Tron by Mokafix: Analog Envelope Filter in Your DAW
Immerse yourself in the world of classic analog effects right in your digital studio! The Nu-Tron plugin by Mokafix is a virtual emulation of the legendary “envelope filter” or “auto-wah” guitar pedal. This effect is known for its unique ability to create dynamic, “wah-wah” sounds that respond to the loudness of the incoming signal. It’s an integral part of funk, disco, psychedelic rock, and many other genres, adding groove and expressiveness to guitars, basses, keyboards, and even drums.
Nu-Tron brings the authentic character of an analog filter into the digital environment, preserving its sensitivity and musicality. Forget about static filters – here, the sound “breathes” along with your playing. The stronger the attack, the more actively the filter opens or closes, creating the signature “wah” or “quack” effect.
Key Features and Capabilities
The Nu-Tron plugin is equipped with all the necessary controls for fine-tuning the sound:
- Range: Sets the frequency range within which the filter operates. Affects how high or low the filter will “rise” under the influence of dynamics. A wider range – a more expressive effect.
- Drive: Adds saturation and slight distortion to the signal, simulating the behavior of analog circuits. Makes the filter effect more aggressive.
- Filter Modes: Three classic operating modes:
- LP (Low-Pass): Passes low frequencies, opening access to higher frequencies as the volume increases. Creates a “dark” wah effect.
- BP (Band-Pass): Passes a narrow range of frequencies. Creates a resonant, “vocal” sound whose movement is controlled by the envelope.
- HP (High-Pass): Passes high frequencies. Can create interesting, thinner sounds with a strong attack.
- Gain / Peak:
- Gain: Controls the input or output level for optimal filter response.
- Peak: Adjusts the resonance level (Q), amplifying the characteristic “quack” or “swoosh”.
- Full MIDI Learn: The ability to assign any parameters to MIDI controllers for convenient control and automation.
