After being available as a "pre-release" for the last year or so, Syndicate v1.0 is now available to download for Windows, macOS, and Linux!

​

Syndicate is a VST and Audiounit which is designed to make common parallel mixing techniques easier to experiment with in a creative way, by hosting all your favourite plugins in any of the following routing configurations:

​

• Series - A single chain, useful for accessing Syndicate's other features (eg. modulation) when you don't need any parallel chains
• Parallel - An unlimited number of parallel chains of plugins
• Multiband - An unlimited number of parallel chains, where each chain operates on a different frequency range
• Left/right - A pair of parallel chains, where one operates on the left channel and the other on the right channel
• Mid/side - A pair of parallel chains, where one operates on the mid channel and the other on the side channel

​

​

As well as multiple routing options, Syndicate includes several built-in modulation sources which can be used to modulate any parameter of any plugin being hosted:

​

• Four macro controls
• Unlimited LFOs
• Unlimited envelope followers (with sidechain input)

​

The macro controls are especially useful for automating multiple plugin parameters simultaneously without needing to draw/record automation for each one, while the LFOs and envelope followers can add movement and dynamics to any effect.

​

Syndicate has been my most ambitious plugin so far, and I'm looking forward to adding more features and improvements in future. So if you have any requests, please let me know!

​

It's also been my first experiment with releasing a plugin that isn't free to download. 100% of income from sales is donated to charity and I'm intending to keep it that way for the forseeable future, so a huge thank you to everyone that has already supported this project.

​

As always, if you have any questions, issues, or feedback please let me know either on Twitter or at jack@whiteelephantaudio.com​
