01Overview

MBitFunMB processes incoming audio at reduced bit depth, letting you control each bit with several operations before a final low-pass filter. The developer describes it as a tool for extreme distortion, from subtle added character at 16 bits to heavy, unpredictable results at lower settings. Up to six independent bands, four modulators and a sidechain input give you wide room to shape the result.

03In depth

Bit-reduction distortion and sound character

At the top of the bit range, the effect is subtle, adding a sense of missing character to the signal. The more interesting territory is at lower bit depths, where MeldaProduction says the plugin can produce brutal, heavily degraded textures.

Four processors can alter any bit, merge the result with shifted versions of the same sample, a delayed sample, or any signal sent into the sidechain. This layering is what drives the most aggressive results.

Modulation and workflow

Four modulators can each act as an LFO, level follower, MIDI or audio triggered ADSR envelope, randomizer or pitch detector. They can control any parameter, including other modulators, so the sound can keep moving over time rather than staying static.

The interface can be resized and styled, and the plugin includes a smart randomization function, along with A-H presets for quick comparison.

Channel support and processing options

MBitFunMB handles mono and stereo signals, mid/side encoding, separate left and right channels, and up to eight channels of surround audio. It also offers adjustable oversampling from 1x to 16x, which can reduce aliasing when using nonlinear processing.
