D16 Group Decimort 2 License Code

Decimort 2 is a Bit Crusher effect plugin from Decimort t D16 Group hat adds grain, saturation and color to mixes by emulating Vintage the sound of classic samplers. Especially electronic and hiphop productions benefit from the sound of a Bitcrusher, which adds that certain classic something to the sound through more "dirt" and "color". This is achieved with the plugin by accurately simulating the circuits of old samplers. The user interface is characterised by its simplicity, which, however, offers extensive setting options behind the first impression.

Lo-Fi sound at Hi-Fi level

What sounds like a contradiction in itself is the basic premise of the Decimort 2. Hiphop and electronic producers have known for a long time that classical samplers simply give the mix more character through their grain and achieve an overall more interesting and "fat" sound. This was due to the low sample rates and resolutions of the earlier devices. The Decimort 2 perfectly imitates this effect, which is technically inferior but actually more pleasant and fuller, giving every mix, bass line and sound the classic magic of old samplers like the early Akai or the E-MU. This is due to the plugin's advanced processing algorithms, which simulate the behavior of the sampling path as it prevails in any AD/DA converter.

More control than most bitcrushers

With the second incarnation of the Decimort, the software house D16 now offers even more setting options. Where bitcrushers often only allow the bit resolution and sampling frequency to be set, the Decimort 2 has been enhanced with numerous additional controls:

• Two optional antialiasing filters: A low-pass prefilter with a very steep curve (approximative filter) is coupled to the resampling rate and removes all harmonics below the set frequency. Another post filter (image filter) is also coupled to the resampler, giving control over the amount of aliasing above the set frequency.
• Customizable Jitter: A feature most bitcrushers lack. This generates random fluctuations of the resampling frequency at short intervals, which make the processing more interesting in terms of sound and result in a kind of overtone distortion that was not known before.
• Two quantization methods: With the quantization modes "Mid-Raiser" or "Mid-Tread Decimation" you can achieve dramatically different effects.
• Controllable dithering: Dithering was actually designed as a method of reducing audible quantization errors by concealing overtone distortions. The possibility of adjustable dithering allows you to make the sound rougher and more unleashed or finer according to your wishes.

In addition, the Decimort has been equipped with high-quality filter algorithms that imitate analog filters and have adjustable resonance. Taken together, you get a plugin that not only creates a true-to-original analog feeling as artifact-free as you want it to be, but also offers multi-layered possibilities for sound shaping.
