Description
Lost-Sampler is SuperflyDSP’s digital lo-fi effect for recreating early sampler artifacts such as jitter, subsampling, bitcrushing, quantisation noise, aliasing, and glitches. It can process instruments such as guitars, vocals, and keyboards, as well as drum or chord stems.
Controls cover stutter and reverse memory length, bit depth, subsampling, artifact noise, jitter depth and rate, and a stereo mode for widened synth-lead or electric-keyboard parts. The developer lists a resizable GUI, built-in preset, low CPU consumption, Windows, Linux, and macOS support, plus VST3 and AudioUnit formats.
