gate effect
VolumeShaper is a simple but unique gate effect. This VST plugin allows detailed modulation of a signal's volume.
You can draw any volume curve you like shaping hard-synced or analogue-sounding rhythms. Create interesting rhythmic strings, shape a bass sound, destroy vocal recordings, create vivid shaker rhythms out of high-passed white noise, use it to simulate the typical pumping sidechain compression, etc.
You can change all parameters via automation (if your host sequencer can handle it). Everything. Even the shape of the modulating wave can be automated. Choose which wave is in use at any position in your song, change the loop length, record and play back any wave point movements and assign any hardware controller to any parameter in VolumeShaper. Even with heavy modulations, with tempo changes in the host or jumping at different positions of a song, the modulation always stays in sync.

Version 2.2.4 |
MacOS X Intel |
(AU, RTAS, VST) |
Oct 31, 2011 |
These updates fix graphic issues with older host sequencers on Mac OS X and reduce both memory and CPU consumption on Mac OS X and Windows.

Version 2.2.3 |
MacOS X Intel |
(AU, RTAS, VST) |
Oct 15, 2011 |
Curve, FilterShaper, VolumeShaper and PanCake are now fully RTAS compatible (for Pro Tools 8 and higher).
These updates fix graphic issues with the waveform area, which could happen with some graphic cards and especially with OS X Lion.
In some cases, MidiShaper might have stopped sending MIDI signal in Ableton Live. We fixed that as well.

Version 2.2.2 |
MacOS X UB |
(AU, VST) |
Jul 30, 2011 |
Switching play modes could lead to hanging notes in Curve 1.4. This is fixed now. Also, we fixed a drawing bug in the waveform area for all plugins.

Version 2.2.1 |
MacOS X UB |
(AU, VST) |
Jun 21, 2011 |
- We improved CPU usage for all plugins a bit and fixed a crash bug in Curve that could happen when renaming a preset.
- 64-bit versions of our full product line are now also available for the Mac.

Version 2.2 |
MacOS X UB |
(AU, VST) |
Jun 9, 2011 |
Now all our plugins have 40 wavepoints for drawing waveforms. More weirdness, more control for wobbles, for arpeggios in Curve, etc.

Version 2.1 |
MacOS X UB |
(AU, VST) |
Feb 7, 2011 |
All effects are now fully AU compatible.
Undo/redo for waveform drawing has been one of the Curve's most requested features, and we now also added this feature to our full product line. Also, we tweaked lots of things under the hood.

Version 2.0.1 |
MacOS X UB |
(VST) |
Mar 22, 2010 |
Fixes: On Sonar (PC) the waveform area was sometimes not shown correctly, and on Nuendo (Mac) our plugins could not be closed (.. but really, you should anyway never ever close our plugins).
Improvements: For all plugins, we added a new button to change the displayed grid of the waveform, and we labeled FilterShaper's LFOs numerically (hurray!).
Current issues: Our plugins do not work in all 64 bit hosts. In Nuendo (Mac) the mouse pointer is sometimes offset within the waveform area. We are currently looking into both issues.

Added a free-running option to VolumeShaper's LFO and refined the user interface.
first mac version
I wish this was available as an audio unit.
