In SoundToys 5, Tweak panels fold out beneath the main window, both in the Effect Rack and in individual plug-ins. In previous SoundToys versions, the Tweak panels containing these extra controls appeared over the top of the main plug-in window, obscuring the main interface. Quite a few of the SoundToys plug-ins have an extra page of ‘expert’ controls for deeper or more detailed editing, accessed by pressing a Tweak button. SoundToys have also put some thought into the way automation is implemented, so not only can your host DAW see named parameters for each module within the Effect Rack, but you can freely re-order them without changing automation assignments. There are input level, output level and wet/dry mix controls, as well as a global Recycle parameter that allows you to feed the output of your chain back into its input. Each plug-in within the Effect Rack has a button providing access to its own presets, and it’s also possible to save and load presets which capture an entire Effects Rack. It couldn’t be easier to use: you simply drag and drop miniature versions of the individual plug-in interfaces from a browser on the right-hand side, and start playing. Effect Rack is, in a nutshell, a plug-in ‘chainer’, which allows multiple SoundToys effects to be combined in a single-window environment. The first of the three newcomers is purely a utility plug-in that makes no sound of its own. It also sees SoundToys support the computer-based form of iLok licence management for the first time, so if you don’t want to use a hardware dongle, you can instead choose to authorise two computers directly.

So, for instance, their Radiator and Devil-Loc brought to the software world the grungy qualities of an old Altec mixer preamp and Shure compressor respectively, while 2014’s MicroShift focused on the stereo widening techniques for which Eventide and AMS pitch-shifters are widely used. Many of their recent releases have been inspired by vintage hardware, often of the ‘cult classic’ variety, and always with a twist of SoundToys’ devising.

The SoundToys range has grown relatively slowly and organically, with the company typically adding only one or two new plug-ins to their collection every year. Their USP is not only the results you can get, but the speed with which you can dial in those results.

Effects like the Crystallizer granular delay, Decapitator distortion and Filter Freak filter bank don’t just sound great they also present just the right about of user adjustment, inviting you to dive in and start meddling with the controls, yet never appearing intimidating or overwhelming. Foremost among these are SoundToys, and this is not an accident: SoundToys plug-ins really are that good.
