We’ve spoken about some killer plugins before, but they just keep coming. This time around comes FabFilter’s Volcano 3 – the notorious filter<\/a><\/span><\/strong> plugin just got an upgrade, reports MusicRadar<\/span><\/em><\/a><\/strong>.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you find yourself to be a user of Volcano 2 or 1, you’ll spot some big differences. From a new interface that’s vastly different from the last (one that brings so much more visualisation of what you’re doing to your input signal, to a multitude of new fil<\/a>t<\/a>er<\/a><\/span><\/strong> presets. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The new Volcano 3 interface is far more intuitive with its new visualization compared to the two previous versions. Volcano 3 features a new filter display that speeds up the workflow for any user as we can select up to four filters at once, a response curve with stereo separation and a spectrum display all get the perc of visualization!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The new filters we mentioned, as well as the classic High-, Low-, and Band-Pass filters, include a vintage-style Bell, High\/Low Shelf, Notch, and All-Pass modes. As we mentioned, you can use up to four filters in one session, all are non-linear, and each filter also houses its own variable saturation circuit and a 6dB\/octave slope option – not to mention individual volume and pan options that we can manipulate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each filter, whichever you use on any of your four options, has different modes including parallel, serial, and hybrid routing options in stereo, L\/R, or M\/S modes. This creates so many opportunities not just in mastering but also in sound design. Version 3’s filter core is analog-modeled which gives the new filter options some vintage character.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Volcano 3 is available for both Windows and Mac users, as well as iOS via the AUv3 plugin version that can be purchased on the Apple App Store. In the realm of PC\/Mac, the desktop version is available in both VST\/AU formats and can be purchased right now. If you would prefer a trial first, a 30-day free trial is also available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
