Hello.
I wanted to share a fun, little effect I made that turns any sound into a shepard tone.
Simply hold down a note, hit "Start", keep holding for 2 seconds and it's done (you don't have to keep holding the note anymore). Add a good doze of reverb and experiment with lots of sounds! Render an empty midi clip or resample to a new audio track to get it to audio. Hit "Start" again to stop the tone.
Update: I've done some changes on the interface and added a button for changing the direction of the tone, as well as a knob for adjusting the range.
1. This plugin requires CSound installed to run. CSound is the programming language that this effect was coded in. Download link, should be a quick and easy installation. You can read more about CSound here and here if you're curious.
2. Download the effect here. Just hit the green download-button and "Download Zip".
3. Unzip and move the version you want to the corresponding folder.
For Mac this is usually:
/Library/Audio/Plug-Ins
For Windows this is usually:
C:\Program Files\VSTPlugins
Windows users make sure all three files are in the same folder.
Enjoy!
Here is a quick demonstration with a couple of different sounds.
Feel free to use it however you like, and let me know if there's any bugs or features you want added!
