Blue Cat AcouFiend Acoustic Simulator – Professional Audio Software & Plugin
Blue Cat's AcouFiend is an acoustic feedback simulator plug-in that can make your guitars scream
growl
or sing
even at low volume or through headphones
and it gives you total control over it!
AcouFiend simulates the acoustic feedback (a.k.a "Larsen effect") well known to guitarists playing loud and close to their speaker... Except that here
you have total control over the effect.
You can choose when and how to trigger the feedback
on sustained notes or chords. The plug-in lets you select the main harmonic of the feedback
and you can even choose to transpose it for more creative effects.
Of course
it can be entirely automated or controlled via MIDI.
And since it is a plug-in
it is not just for guitars: create screaming synths
sustained vocal harmonies and more...
