SP950: Your Free VST Plugin for Authentic Lo-Fi Sound
SP950 is a free VST plugin meticulously emulating the iconic sound of the E-mu SP-1200 sampler and the Akai S950 filter. Achieve that classic grainy, lo-fi texture with its accurate 12-bit SP ADC emulation at 26.04 kHz, complete with aliasing artifacts and the characteristic detuning capabilities.
Key Features
- Authentic SP-1200 Emulation: Recreate the distinctive sound of the E-mu SP-1200, including its unique sampling and detuning characteristics.
- Akai S950 Filter: Utilize the emulated Akai S950’s 6th-order Butterworth low-pass filter to shape your sound and mitigate high-frequency artifacts.
- Combined RPM/Detune Control: A single slider precisely controls both source pitch (RPM) and SP detuning, maintaining consistent output pitch and duration while introducing varied aliasing. Extend the detuning range and adjust the precision with the included switches.

- Flexible Signal Routing: Choose from various layout options (Stereo L/R/Mid/Side) to precisely process your audio components. Control the wet/dry mix to blend the processed and original signals seamlessly.
