WoodScaper vs Ringotron Usage & Stats
WoodScaper combines into one unit the 4 classic guitar effects : phaser, chorus/flanger, wah-wah and tremelo. Besides the familiar controls each effect has some extra not-so-commonly-found options. The 4 effects can be routed in series (pedalboard mode), parallel (DAW mode) or some combinations of those modes. Panning or the Stereo control can create stereo sounds from a mono input source. WoodScaper is both stand-alone and an AUv3 effect.
- All LFO’s can be set to different waveforms : Sine, Square, Saw Up, Saw Down, Triangle.
- All LFO frequencies can be set to a bar fraction (1/4, 1/8 , …) of the BPM or can be set free to a specific rate
(independent from the BPM).
- All LFO phases can be reset with a button.
- All effects have an On/Off (parallel routing) or On/Bypass (serial routing) switch like on a pedalboard. The switches can
be toggled by Midi CC’s.
- Phaser has settings for number of poles, frequency range and modulation flavour.
- Phaser has second LFO to modulate filter Q.
- Chorus has feedback, HighPass, LowPass and Saturation.
- Wah-wah control can be LFO, Envelope, Envelope + LFO, side chain, Midi note velocity or Midi CC 1 (mod wheel).
- Wah Envelope has Attack, Release and Threshold or Sensitivity controls.
- Wah can go up or down.
- Wah filter type and Q can be set.
- Tremolo has 3 types : Amplitude, Ring or Harmonic.
- Harmonic Tremolo has cross-over frequency control.
- Tremolo has a Threshold control to have more tremolo when the signal increases.
- Tremolo has “Biased Tremolo” mode to get more tremolo when the signal decreases.
- Has a global Input and Output Gain control.
- Has 2 extra LFO’s to modulate most parameters (rates, depths, …)
- Modulation LFO’s have their own slew rate control and a random mode.
- Presets can be stored in iCloud Drive (makes them available on all your devices).
- Presets can be switched with Midi Program Changes or a Midi CC (up or down)
- Major controls can be set with Midi CC messages.

Ringotron allows taming the strong transformational effects of traditional ring modulation, opening up a wider range of possibilities in sound design and audio FX.
Its multi-band design enables fine control over which parts of the spectrum will be transformed by the effect. A special soft mode is available that borrows concepts from feedback modeling, which can be used to reduce intermodulation effects that are often a limiting factor in the more general applicability of ring modulators.
In addition to the layers of control they provide, combination of these core features also allows the plugin to act as a stereo, multi-peak resonant filter that can also smoothly morph into a ring modulator.
FEATURES:
• 2 parallel ring modulator units (max. modulator frequency: 8 kHz)
• Stereo separation can be added to band center, mod. frequency, mod. phase
• Ultra-narrow bands can be used to create highly resonant sounds
• 4 large ribbon controls for band center and modulator frequencies
• Band center frequencies can be modulated by the built-in modulation system
• Tempo syncing can be independently configured for each oscillator
• Built-in soft limiter and clipper to protect against volume spikes
IMPORTANT INFORMATION:
The plugin comes with a zero-latency, non-brickwall soft limiter, and as such, its stopping power is limited. Make sure to always leave enough headroom or use an external brickwall limiter for total protection against powerful transients. Alternatively, a built-in soft clipper is also available.
PLEASE NOTE:
• AUv3-compatible host app is required
• Suported sampling rates: 44.1, 48, 96 kHz
