![]() ![]() Great for EQing individual sound sources like kicks, snares, bass, voice, sax, guitars etc. It's extremely easy to carve out huge chunks of frequencies with this thing. Volcano 3 erupts with new features that make this filter plug-in a must-have for every production toolkit. For me, it's become mostly an utility tool and it's been my main character EQ since the beta started. FabFilter Volcano is now more versatile than ever Since they released Volcano 2, FabFilter returned to the drawing board and rebuilt the plug-in from the ground up. then trigger all of this with MIDI Note-on messages.Ħ) Envelope followers with transient detection lets you modulate every crazy parameter with your audio source.Īt it's heart though, it's mostly been thought of as a basic filter plugin. Use one filter as the oscillator (or two!) and then filter it with another in series. Heck, you can even build your own mini "synth" within Volcano 3 if you so desire. As a creative sound design thing:ġ) Create our own crazy phasers/flangers/chorusesģ) Glitch effects where time and pitch can be manipulated (using the delay)Ĥ) MIDI Triggered mayhem where you can "play the plugin" with a midi keyboard, using modwheel and pitch wheel to further modulate things.ĥ) Truly self-oscillating filters which can then be used as oscillators. or why not a transient based EQ? Only want that bass boost on the initial transient of your kick? No problem. or timing differentiation)Ĥ) A great sounding non-linear 4 band semi-parametric EQ (you don't have full control over the Q, thus semi-parametric) which can have all kinds of serial, parallel and hybrid routings (all sounding very different from one another).Ħ) Tempo synced stuff to add some life into audio sources or to accentuate thingsħ) Envelope followers with built in transient mode makes it extremely easy to create your own transient designer. What it is good for in 2021 As a mixing utility:ġ) Good selection of non-linear basic filter shapes (hpf, bpf, lpf and notch)Ģ) Create your own gate/compressor/auto-pan/auto-filterģ) Complex panning (using phase or frequency differentiation. With version 3 it has further evolved in all directions. Volcano 2 evolved the plugin to become a true workhorse of utility and creative sound design. Back then it simply had the filter from FabFilter One (with some tweaks as it could do BPF and HPF). It all started with Volcano 1, which was their 2nd ever plugin. ![]()
