Lo-Fi Effects Modules and Controls

Flavor Pro splits its processing into six modules, each with its own controls. The Wobble and Flutter module adds tape-style movement with rate, speed, drift, stereo width and X modulation controls. The Saturation and Distortion module offers nine models, including Tube, Speaker, Vinyl and Synth emulations, alongside HP and LP filters.

The Sample and Bit Rate Reduction module recreates the sound of classic Akai MPC and S Series samplers, with bit crushing, sample-rate reduction, smoothing, glitch and envelope controls. A separate vinyl noise module provides crackle, clicks, pops, hum, rumble and noise. The Tape Drift and Dropouts module adds drift and dropouts with its own rate and speed controls.

Tonal Shaping and Output Options

The Timbre section includes 32 EQ profiles, which the developer describes as ranging from lo-fi radio resistors to 1930s gramophone and boombox tones. Flavor Pro also provides an intensity control for the overall effect amount, plus main output high-pass and low-pass filters, stereo width and output gain.

The plugin includes a Mono to Mono version of its effects, and its preset field shows when a parameter has been changed from the saved value.
