THENATAN’s radio effect plugin “DIAL” is currently available as a free download for a limited time! This article covers the giveaway details and an overview of what DIAL can do.
What is THENATAN “DIAL”?
DIAL is a radio signal designer plugin that transforms tracks, loops, vocals, and melodies as if they were being broadcast over a real radio signal. Turn the dial and the reception wavers and fades; press the SEARCH button and it automatically hops between frequency bands; switch from FM to AM and the signal collapses into a narrow, distorted mono sound. It’s not just a lo-fi filter — the concept is putting your music “on the air.”
Key Features
- Features four radio types — Warm Tube, Transistor, Shortwave, and Cheap Speaker. Switching between them changes not just the tonal character, frequency range, and drive, but the entire interface look, since each one is modeled after a real hardware radio.
- AM/FM switching plus a “Hold to Search” auto-tuning (band-scan) function.
- Interference section: adds reception noise with Noise, Crackle, and Morse.
- Reception section: creates unstable-reception effects with Drift, Dropout, and Blend.
- Tone section: shapes each radio’s frequency range with level-matched Saturation and Low-cut/High-cut filters.
- Rattle section: recreates the vibration of a speaker cabinet rattling, controlled by Rate and Depth.
- Each section has its own bypass switch, so you can actually turn that processing off.
- Includes 64 factory presets across 8 categories: Clean Broadcast, Warm Lofi, Late Night AM, Shortwave, Broken Signal, Kitchen Radio, Textures, and FX & Transitions.
- Supports a master Output control and instant preset preview.
- Supports both mono and stereo.
