The Bad Contact vst concept is a lo-fi tool.

While most sound designers hate when knobs and switches crackle and create noise, we felt there was potential in these flaws. One can create interesting musical tones or individual works with them. It just depends on your imagination and the FX chain.

Get creative and try the 50/60 Hz hum of the transformer, the harsh crackling while turning the big knob, or the popping sound of the power button. By increasing the voltage, you can strengthen the crackling. All sounds are oscillator generated, not sample based. No boring repetition .

ATTENTION! TEST QUIETLY IN THE BEGINNING! VST3 format.

Lo-Fi Keys is a processed piano rompler inspired by today’s modern Lo-Fi music.

This small VST / AU plugin gives you the ability to lay out soft & dusty piano chord progressions and melodies.

Lo-Fi Keys comes with 10 sampled piano instruments. To create each preset we first started by sampling actual pianos. These pianos include a classic grand piano, upright piano, and electric keyboard. After recording the instruments we lightly edited and processed each sample. The processing technique included applying vinyl and tape textures to emulate a vintage sound. Finally, each sample showcases the characteristics found in today’s most popular lo-fi piano beats.
