A reverb-style diffusion module can be placed in one of three positions in the audio chain, and as well as the LFOs, envelope follower and Sample & Hold module, the Transmod modulation sources include a set of step sequencers. A pair of EQ blocks are available, one in the effect chain and the other at the delay output. Additional effects comprise overdrive, filtering, saturation, dynamics, frequency shifting and chorus the placement of these effects in the audio chain can be adjusted via the EQ/Routing page tab, so you can opt to process only the feedback path or the overall delay sound. The core of the plug-in is a stereo delay line that can be switched to provide a digital, analogue (CCD) or tape-like character. Blooming Marvellousīloom is, in essence, a delay effect, though of course you wouldn't expect a delay plug-in from FXpansion to be anything close to normal, and thanks to Transmod it isn't. Authorisation takes place online, and all three plug-ins have a free demo period if you'd like to have a play before you buy - always a welcome option.Īs well as a three-band equaliser, Bloom's EQ page allows you to configure the order of the various effects blocks. See the box for details of how this works.Īll three plug-ins are 64-bit compatible and are available in VST, AU and RTAS plug-in formats, supporting Mac OS 10.6.2 and Windows 7 - there's no AAX support at the time of writing. The three under review here are, respectively, a delay, a filter and a distortion effect, and all three use FXpansion's Transmod Modulation Matrix, also deployed in the company's Synth Squad and Tremor plug-ins. A powerful modulation system means there's more to FXpansion's delay, filter and distortion effects than meets the eye.įXpansion are perhaps best known for virtual instruments such as their massive BFD series of virtual drum kits, but over the last couple of years, they've also released quite a few plug-in effects and processors.
