Introduction of HY-Lofi2 free of HY-Plugins Lo-Fi plug-in
No, there are still good plug-ins sleeping.
Introducing HY-Lofi2 free, a Lo-Fi plug-in from HY-Plugins.
This plugin isHY-PluginsWithRekkerdIt seems to be a collaboration project of HY-Plugins, and the information of "HY-Lofi2 free" is not listed in the official.
"HY-Lofi 2 free" is not a mundane bit crusher, but is equipped with 4 types of bit quantizer, and each has a quite different texture.
You can get the texture of an old hard sound source.
I think it's better to use it for synths than for drums.
Sound demo
I tried to ring it.
Bypass at first.
Personally, I really liked "Mode" No. 3.
Overview
HY-Plugins has released "HY-Lofi2", an effect plug-in that processes audio to create a lo-fi sound.
With this update, Tadashi Suginomori has implemented VST3 support for Windows and released a plugin for Mac OSX 10.8 and above (VST / VST3 / AU) that Mac users are happy with.
HY-Lofi2 combines a filter section with a bit quantizer, distortion / wave shaper unit, and high pass / low pass filter.
Two new quantize modes have been added, bringing the total to four.Various quality options and bit depth knobs offer a great range of degradation, from subtle degradation to complete audio corruption.Mode 2 and Mode 4 are modified versions of the original two modes.The sounds are similar, but you can get different reactions by varying the quality and bit depth values.
The drive section has been simplified and has only one knob to control the drive level. HP and LP filters provide the basic tools for controlling the tone of your sound.
Also, in version 2, the input and output levels can be set separately, and the slider sets the dry / wet balance of the signal.HY-Lofi2 has a familiar GUI with a resizable interface, undo / redo, randomization and clear buttons.The Preset Manager contains four demo presets, and you can also save user presets.

Installation is done with the installer that is separated for each OS.
There is also a VST3 version, so there is no problem with the basic default installation.
If you do not want to install useless files, if you do not use the 32bit version, uncheck 32bit at the place shown below.
Preset folder settings
The preset file itself is installed automatically, but it doesn't seem to be recognized automatically by the plugin.
Open the plug-in and click "Set Preset Folder Location" from the "Menu".
A dialog will be displayed. Select "HY-Lofi2" in "HY-Plugins" under the document.
The exact location is below.
% USERPROFILE% \ Documents \ HY-Plugins \ HY-Lofi2
Now you can open the preset.
Warnings
In the case of FL Studio, probably noise was picked up if used as it was.
There is also a possibility that it depends on the environment, so if noise appears, please try the following settings.
In addition to "Use fixed size buffers", check the two boxes in "More"
Summary
It feels like a plug-in from HY-Plugins.
I think I'll aim for completeness.
