I have to say bit reduction, sample rate reduction and overdrive sound incredible on DT II. And chorus as well. I find myself often just throwing them on everything I sample in and add some LFO to it, that’s enough to make it something else entirely.

Not a fan of bit reduction. But overdrive and srr sound absolutely incredible.

Bit reduction by itself I don’t find super useful, but combining it with SRR to hit certain combinations is quite useful to me. Especially if you’re trying to emulate a certain era of sampler for example. I don’t think I ever use BRR without SRR.

This is the news title

For Snares/Claps, it changes everything with the right filtering.

I don’t know, feels like the old title.

Yes, there’s lots of interesting timbres you can get from the interaction of SRR/BR/Overdrive. It’s somehow become a lot easier to make things sound lo fi (ish) on DT II, yet make the overall output sound more defined and clear.

Definitely! I really like what they’ve done putting all of those in there together.

“Oh you’re using the comb filter trick again”

I feel seen! But I found myself on the cusp of overusing it on a few tracks recently, the effect is so satisfying and transformative it ends up really tempting to use all over the place. And yeah it’s pretty distinctive and can standout if you’re not careful

it would be great to see auto-follow pages in grid mode for future updates.
It’s very annoying that you have to press Page button for every next page to observe whats going on(

DT2 seems like it would be good for making ambient, like with snippets of field recordings and odd sounds…
Can anyone substantiate?

DT1 was already very good at it, so 2 will be even better.

Just bought. Nice compliment to the DNII pack you also made.

With its 16 stereo tracks and 3 lfo’s per track it’s more than i need for my ambient creations. The fx could be more versatile but that’s not a problem for me.
