What is it?
Frequency is an AudioUnit effect plugin for creating unique synthesizer sounds. Its sound generation concept is based on a dual oscillator with additive waveforms and waveshape modeling, whose pitch comes from the built-in note sequencer and dynamics are taken from the input signal. With this combination, Frequency transforms any rhythmic material into a lively synthesizer instrument, all via a simple, color-coded interface.
