MIXING & EFFECTS Fruity Squeeze Fruity Squeeze is a bit-reducing, distortion (called 'Puncher' that replaces audio sample data with a fixed, user controlled value) and filtering plugin. Fruity Squeeze will add a gritty tonal character to input sounds and is particularly effective when applied to drum loops. Parameters Squarize - Reduces the bit-depth of the input sample stream. This has the effect of making the output wave appear blocky/rectangular and the output to sound gritty.

- Reduces the bit-depth of the input sample stream. This has the effect of making the output wave appear blocky/rectangular and the output to sound gritty. Puncher Preserve - The number of samples that are left unaffected by the Puncher section. This can vary between 0 samples (knob fully left) to a 1 second buffer (knob fully right). The maximum value is determined by the sample rate setting of the Mixer (F10 - Audio Settings).

- The number of samples that are left unaffected by the Puncher section. This can vary between 0 samples (knob fully left) to a 1 second buffer (knob fully right). The maximum value is determined by the sample rate setting of the Mixer (F10 - Audio Settings). Puncher Impact - The number of samples that are forced by the Puncher section to the nominal value. The Preserve and Impact sample variations are alternated (interleaved) in the output sample stream.

- The number of samples that are forced by the Puncher section to the nominal value. The and sample variations are alternated (interleaved) in the output sample stream. Puncher Relation - Determines the relationship between the number of Impact and Preserve samples. Possible values are: no relation, equal, double and half.

- Determines the relationship between the number of Impact and Preserve samples. Possible values are: no relation, equal, double and half. Puncher Amount - The Puncher section replaces 'Puncher Impacted' samples by value between 0% (knob fully left) and 100% (knob fully right) of the maximum amplitude. Best results are obtained with low settings (0% for example).

- The Puncher section replaces 'Puncher Impacted' samples by value between 0% (knob fully left) and 100% (knob fully right) of the maximum amplitude. Best results are obtained with low settings (0% for example). Filter Freq - Low pass Filter cutoff frequency.

- Low pass Filter cutoff frequency. Filter resonance - Low pass Filter resonance.

- Low pass Filter resonance. Pre/Post - The filter can be applied before ( pre ) or after ( post ) the Squarize and Puncher sections.

- The filter can be applied before ( ) or after ( ) the Squarize and Puncher sections. Mix - Determines the amount of dry (input) and wet (after processing) signals to be sent to the output.

- Determines the amount of dry (input) and wet (after processing) signals to be sent to the output. Gain - Determines the final output volume. Plugin Credits: Frederic Vanmol (programming), Joel Zimmerman (UI)
