iZotope Releases Free Vinyl Plug In

Free lo-fi simulation plug-in for the classic vinyl sound.

Framingham, MA (January 2, 2001) – IZOTOPE, INC. has released iZotope Vinyl, a free lo-fi simulation plug-in for DirectX host applications.

The ultimate lo-fi weapon, Vinyl uses 64 bit processing and advanced filtering, modeling and resampling to create authentic "vinyl" simulation, as if the audio was a record being played on a record player.

You have complete control over the following parameters:

• Wear - Control how worn out the record is, from brand new to played a few thousand times
• Dust - The amount of dust on the record
• Scratch - The number and depth of scratches on the record
• Warp - The amount of warping and the warp shape for the record - from no warp to the edges totally melted and warped.
• Record Player Year - The year of the record player - from current linear tracking turntables to 1930 honographs
• Stereo/Mono - Switch between stereo and mono output
• Input and Output Gain - Set the gain in and out of the effect with visual level meter feedback
