dBdone’s Feuer, a creative effect plugin for drums and percussion, is currently available as a free download!
In this article, we’ll go over what Feuer is, what it can do, and how to grab your free copy.
1. What Is dBdone “Feuer”?
Feuer is a creative processing plugin for drums and percussion that splits the incoming drum signal into frequency bands, detects the attack and decay of each band, and sustains the decay — letting you push a sound all the way until it no longer resembles the original. The sustained energy comes back as body, reverb-like tails, distortion, and frequency content that was buried in the original loop. Depending on your settings, it can produce sounds reminiscent of a sub synth, a glitchy bitcrusher, or a granular effect.
Key Features
- Splits the drum signal into frequency bands and processes each band by detecting its attack and decay
- Drawable spectrum (two panels, A/B) that lets you freely draw which bands should ring out and which should stay tight
- XY pad for morphing between spectrum A and spectrum B
- Automatic gain compensation (AGC) for comparing the processed and dry signals at matched levels
- Built-in saturation
- 20 factory presets and unlimited user preset saving
