ShinRonin is a ground-up rebuild of Ronin, one of the earliest plugins we ever shipped, first released in 2003. The original paired two delay lines with a set of morphing filters and two fully patchable routing matrices, and it earned a cult following for the strange feedback networks and self-oscillating textures you could build inside it. Twenty years on, we have rebuilt it for modern systems, kept the architecture that made it worth remembering, and released it for free.
Two independent delay lines, each with tempo sync, reverse, looping, and feedback, feed a pair of morphing multimode filters that sweep continuously from notch through lowpass, bandpass, and highpass. There is saturation, two LFOs, and an envelope follower. Everything connects through two on-board matrices: a signal matrix that routes any audio source to any destination, and a modulation matrix that wires the LFOs, envelope, and incoming MIDI to nearly any parameter. It is happy doing clean stereo delays and gentle filtering, but the real fun starts when you patch a feedback loop and let it misbehave.
Native VST3 audio effects for OBS Studio on Windows — isolated plug-in hosting, vendor GUIs, automatic discovery, state restore and dry fail-open recovery.
Why this project exists
OBS Studio’s built-in VST filter does not provide VST3 hosting. Many current studio EQs, compressors, restoration tools, reverbs, saturators, limiters and mastering processors are distributed primarily, or only, as VST3s.
OBS Safe VST3 Host adds two OBS-native workflows on Windows:
VST 3.x Plug-in — a simple one-effect filter for the common case.
VST3 Rack — a separate isolated serial multi-effect chain with a dedicated graphical Rack Editor and broadcast-oriented master console.
Third-party VST3 runtime code, vendor editors and plug-in scanning are deliberately kept outside the OBS process.
A monorepo for Casio CZ-101 phase distortion synthesis — including a preset manager web/desktop app, an in-browser phase distortion synthesizer, and a VST3/CLAP/AUv2 plugin.
pedalboard is a Python library for working with audio: reading, writing, rendering, adding effects, and more. It supports most popular audio file formats and a number of common audio effects out of the box, and also allows the use of VST3® and Audio Unit formats for loading third-party software instruments and effects.
Bitter shows how many of the available bits are being used by the audio signal, reports clipping samples, and estimates when digital-to-analog conversion would cause inter-sample clips. Typical uses for a bitscope include: verifying that a render dither is working properly; verifying that a particular plugin is not reducing the signal bit depth; testing for faulty audio source data.
Features:
Check for Intersample Clipping that may appear during digital-to-analog conversion
Detailed display of the usage density of each bit
Reveal the bitrate of the digital signal, which may well differ from that of the file’s bitrate or your DAW’s audio engine bitrate
A fully free and self-contained modular synthesizer based on the popular VCV Rack. Available in AudioUnit/CLAP/LV2/VST2/VST3 plugin formats and as a standalone app for FreeBSD, Linux, macOS, Windows and the Web.
Filtron is a 12dB state variable filter that can smoothly transition between lowpass, bandpass, and highpass. It is capable of self-oscillation with resonance levels that can reach up to 11! Filtron also features a fat sounding internal saturation algorithm and a sizzly post overdrive with two modes to choose from: cold and hot.

The plugin is very unique in the sense that it gives you full control over all aspects of the modelled circuit. All values of all the capacitors, resistors etc. can be tuned by the user.
This is a free plugin. It comes in all the usual plugin formats (VST/VST3/AU/AAX), for 32 and 64 bit hosts, and for Mac Intel & Silicon.
Benihora is a Rust library and VST Plugin that generates voice based on a vocal tract model. This is a Rust port of Pink Trombone developed by Neil Thapen with some customizations.
