Orion Ring Modulator is a 64-bit stereo VST plugin for Windows designed to transform any audio input into unique and compelling sounds. Each channel features independent controls, allowing detailed customization of the ring modulation effect. This plugin excels at turning synths, pianos, vocals, percussion, guitars, and other audio sources into wild, bell-like, and dreamlike textures that evoke the feeling of cosmic broadcasts or otherworldly soundscapes.

The plugin offers 32 user-configurable presets that range from musical and melodic to experimental and abstract, providing a broad palette of sonic possibilities. Users can explore a variety of control frequency waveforms such as sine, triangle, and pulse, each delivering distinct tonal characteristics. Additional parameters like resonance, filtering, and feedback allow for creative sound shaping, encouraging experimentation to discover surprising and exciting effects. The interface visually represents control frequencies and output signals for intuitive operation.

To optimize performance, it is recommended to incorporate compression after the ring modulator to manage the dynamic range effectively. Orion Ring Modulator is developed using SynthEdit and is distributed under a license that permits free use and modification, excluding government entities. This plugin offers a powerful toolset for producers and sound designers seeking to add distinctive, cosmic-inspired modulation textures to their audio projects.
