Hi Rakarrack is a richly featured multi-effects processor emulating a guitar effects pedalboard. Effects include compressor, noise gate, graphic equalizer, parametric equalizer, flanger, chorus, echo with reverse playback, musical delay, reverb, digital phaser, analogic phaser, wah-wah, alien-wah, harmonizer, and three flexible distortion modules including sub-octave modulation and dirty octave up. Most of the effects engine is built from modules found in the excellent software synthesizer ZynAddSubFX. Presets and user interface are optimized for guitar, but Rakarrack processes signals in stereo while it does not apply internal band-limiting filtering, and thus is well suited to all musical instruments and vocals. Rakarrack is designed for Linux distributions with Jack Audio Connection Kit. http://rakarrack.sourceforge.net News: AUDIO: - Two new effects have been added: Analog Phaser and Derelict Distortion. - Limiter at the end of the chain. - Four new waveshape types: Crunch, Hard Crunch, Dirty Octave+ and Modulated Square improving all the Distortion effects.. - Four new LFO wave types: Ramp Up, Ramp Down, Zig-Zag, Modulated Square improving Chorus, Flanger, Phaser, Pan, etc. - Sub Octave in Distortion effects. - Reverse Echo. - Compressor support for adjustable knee, switch (Mono/Stereo), improved automatic gain function. - Global Wet/Dry (FX%) - Improvements in Wah-Wah, Tuner and Harmonizer.
