With Waves Kaleidoscopes, you'll get classic phaser, flanger, chorus, and tremolo tone in your DAW of choice, so you can flavor your productions and mixes with archetypal tone from classic eras. You'll also be able to take these vintage sounds and apply distinctly modernistic controls to them: Intelligent Triggering responds to your playing dynamically, and in real time, so you can influence parameters of the effect in ways unique to your performance, production, and playing style.

All these modulation sounds provided are modeled on analog processes, and all provide you the means to make elements in your mix move and breathe. With Dual Cascade architecture, this downloadable plug-in lets you cascade any two modulation effects in series, or run them in parallel within the plug-in. Ample controls over all the usual modulation parameters are provided along with a THRU mode for wet/dry configurations. The plug-in operates on Mac and Windows, working in AU, VST, VST3, AAX, and AudioSuite formats.

Kaleidoscopes is the cumulative result of over half a century of recorded music, with all-time favorite analog effects such as 1960s-style phasing and tape flanging, 1970s stadium tremolo guitar vibes, 1980s chorus, and more

Kaleidoscopes' Dual Cascade architecture gives you two FX engines which you can cascade serially into one another for unique effects, or run in parallel for superwide soundscapes.

On each of the two engines, you can choose a selection of waveshapes or any sidechain signal from your DAW session to be the modulation input. You can even select your performance as the input, allowing your live playing to control the sound in real time and drive the pulsing of the effect.

By setting input-sensitive envelopes and adjusting intelligent triggers, you can enable effects to listen to your playing and respond dynamically, expressing nuances of emotion and feel. With this section activated, Kaleidoscopes becomes a personalized musical instrument, modifying its character in real time.

The plug-in gives you control over the speed, resonance, width, and depth of the modulation, as well as filter settings and mix knobs for extreme versatility. You can also choose from 5 different effect characters for different analog flavors, and tempo-sync the modulation effect to your DAW session to keep things consistent every time you reopen your song.

Kaleidoscopes offers Thru mode for a typical favorite setting among musicians: a wet/dry rig effect, with clean tone on one channel and processed tone on the other.
