Minimal Audio is giving away its multi-mode filter plugin Hybrid Filter as a limited-time free download. With more than 50 filter modes — including custom morphing, formant, comb, and phaser shapes — and a Morph control that reshapes the internal filter structure on the fly, it is one of the more flexible character filters around. Below is a quick overview and how to grab it for free.
Minimal Audio Hybrid Filter (Free, limited time)
Hybrid Filter is a serious multi-mode filter that ships with over 50 cutting-edge filter types, including custom morphing, formant, comb, and phaser modes. Beyond simply selecting a filter type, the Morph control lets you continuously reshape the underlying filter structure to create complex, expressive curves you cannot get from a static low-pass or high-pass. A built-in envelope follower can modulate both Cutoff and Morph at the same time, so you can build dynamic auto-filter effects without bringing in any external modulators. It runs as VST3, AU, and AAX on Windows and macOS via the Minimal Hub installer.
To claim it, create a free Minimal Audio account, add Hybrid Filter to the cart, and check out at $0. Then install the Minimal Hub helper app and download the plugin from inside it. The license is activated online on first launch.
