AudioThing has announced updates for two of its audio plugins.
Version 1.2.5 of the Wires Soviet Wire Recorder comes with new graphics controls (Brightness and Contrast), macOS 15 Sequoia support, and improved CPU and memory usage.
A collaboration with Hainbach, Wires is an accurately modeled and enhanced 1970s Soviet wire recorder.
Made originally for military and secret service use across the Iron Curtain, in the hands of a few avant garde musicians it became a magical lofi-tool and ghostly echo machine. Now this rare and rather finicky to operate piece of hardware is available for the first time as a faithful yet modern plugin. Transform your audio to the world of numbers stations and secret operations, dub out to very unusual echoes or make the most lofi beats to study too.
Dub Filter was updated to version 1.0.1, also bringing macOS 15 Sequoia support, alongside some fixes for oversampling latency when bypassed and an issue with online activation on Windows.
Dub Filter is a filter plugin modeled after King Tubby’s iconic Big Knob, a passive high-pass filter with eleven frequency steps from 70Hz to 7.5KHz. This filter defined the sound of the entire “roots” era of Jamaican music.
In celebration of the updates, AudioThing is offering a 50% discount on both plugins. Regularly 59 USD/EUR, they are priced 29 USD/EUR each until July 31st, 2025. The offer is available from the AudioThing store and at Plugin Boutique.
