Soundtoys Decapitator and Little AlterBoy
Soundtoys is one of the most sought-after names in DAW plug-ins, with a wide range of creative effects to add colour to your music. With Decapitator, you get a hardware-modelled saturation with algorithms based on circuitry inside gear like the Ampex 350, the Chandler Limited TG Channel, the Neve 1057, and the Thermionic Culture Vulture.

Meanwhile, the Little AlterBoy is one of the most widely used tools in the industry for vocal processing. With algorithms based on the famous H3000, you can transform your vocal sound with three processing modes, pitch and formant controls, as well as a saturation algorithm borrowed from the Decapitator.

Addictive Drums is a popular plug-in for drum replacement and production. With deep velocity sampled drum kits, you can achieve realistic dynamics, and each channel allows extensive individual processing.
This includes pitch and amplification envelopes for each drum voice and effects such as saturation and distortion. Meanwhile, you also have the ability to balance the room sound with the dry signal or add algorithmic reverbs.

Cubase is renowned for the flexibility of its audio features, including pitch correction within VariAudio as well as the versatile Multi-track AudioWarp and Audio Quantize.
In addition, in Cubase Pro, you have support for Dolby Atmos, extensive MIDI editing capabilities, and the customizable Control Room monitoring environment.
Ninja Tune x Erica Synths Zen Delay plug-in
The Zen Delay plug-in is a software recreation of the versatile Zen Delay pedal for your DAW. Its six delay modes include digital, vintage, tape, 2 ping-pong modes, and a setting to bypass the delay and use the filter exclusively.

The multimode filter is equipped with a drive knob and has low-pass, band-pass, and high-pass settings, as well as bypass. In addition, there are modulation sections for the delay time and filter cutoff.
Meanwhile, in digital mode, you can reduce the bit depth and sample rate, and add noise for additional texture. Overall, it’s a worthy recreation that should make you wonder what the hardware version is like.
Zynaptiq Wormhole
When it comes to software, Zynaptiq does things slightly differently. So, the Wormhole plug-in is bound to unlock otherworldly sounds and give you some powerful creative tools.

Besides providing a rich dual reverb section, Wormhole has spectral inversion effects. These are similar to ring mod or FM processors, pitch, formant, and resonating shifting effects.
All three sections can be bypassed, and you can swap the order of the warp and shift processors. The parameters available give you just enough control to sculpt your sound and transform it into another dimension.
