Classy modulation can transform the sonics of your track. Let’s see what this new bundle - part of the ‘you’ll actually use’ series - has to offer

Arturia’s FX Collection features 15 premium effects created using the same True Analog Emulation physical and circuit modelling employed in their V Collection synths. Processors include channel strips, delays, filters, compressors and reverbs but, until now, no modulation effects. Thankfully their three new plugins resolve that situation. Chorus Dimension D, Phaser Bi-Tron and Flanger BL-20 (VST, VST3, AU, AAX) are circuit-accurate emulations of three modulation classics, and are now available as the 3 Modulation FX You’ll Actually Use bundle (€199) or individually (€100).

Parallel dimension

Chorus Dimension D is a stereo chorus processor that’s great for adding subtle width and richness to synths, basses, vocals and beyond. However, it doesn’t have typical chorus controls as it relies on four preset Dimension Modes. The first three modes deliver increasingly intense chorus effects with Mode 4 used in conjunction with the other modes to increase their wet signal. One further option, Mode 0, removes the delay lines but retains the surrounding circuitry to deliver a darker, slightly more crunchy, outcome than full plugin bypass.
