Soundtoys 5 Bundle

Soundtoys 5 Bundle collects 23 effects plugins known for analog character and creative possibilities. Where some plugins aim for transparency, Soundtoys embraces color, saturation, and happy accidents.

Saturation and Drive

Decapitator is the flagship — five analog saturation models from subtle tape warmth to aggressive tube destruction, with a Punish button for extreme overdrive. Radiator models a Altec 1567A tube mixer for warming vocals and drums. Devil-Loc provides the aggressive leveling of an Electro-Voice limiter. These three alone handle saturation needs across an entire mix.

Delay and Time Effects

EchoBoy offers 30+ delay styles modeling vintage tape, analog, and digital units with distinct character per style. PrimalTap recreates the Lexicon Prime Time delay with lo-fi pitch-shifting charm. Crystallizer granulizes and pitch-shifts audio for reverse and shimmer effects. PanMan automates panning with rhythmic patterns from subtle motion to hard-panned tremolo.

Modulation and Pitch

Little AlterBoy manipulates pitch and formants for vocal effects from subtle correction to robotic transformation. MicroShift provides stereo widening through pitch-based widening (modeled after the Eventide H3000). FilterFreak offers analog-modeled resonant filters with rhythmic modulation. Tremolator and PhaseMistress cover classic modulation effects with envelope-following capabilities.

Effect Rack

Effect Rack combines any Soundtoys plugins into a modular chain with parallel routing, global modulation, and preset recall. Build complex effect chains and save them as single presets — useful for creative sound design and live performance.

Who Is This For?

Soundtoys 5 suits producers seeking creative color:

• Mix engineers wanting analog saturation and warmth across a session
• Vocal producers exploring pitch, formant, and delay effects
• Creative producers using effects as instruments, not just polish
• Guitarists and keyboard players processing through analog-style chains
• Anyone finding clinical plugins too sterile for their music

For transparent, surgical processing, look elsewhere. For effects with character that make sources sound more alive, Soundtoys delivers.
