Aberrant DSP / Cataclysm
Posted: Nov 02, 2025 11:45 am

It has been a while since their previous release ('Lair'), but now Aberrant DSP are back with a new one: Cataclysm, a "signal destruction machine from a paranoid time. Inspired by malfunctioning test equipment, illegal wiretaps, and classic analog hardware, Cataclysm brings chaotic circuitry into the digital age."
Cataclysm includes:
- Central Drive module with in-depth waveshaping, gating, and tone controls
- Tone Circuitry module including unfaithful approximations of three classic guitar amps
- Time-domain Pitch Shifter with two independent voices
- Lofi Looper with three Recording Mediums (Tape, BBD, Data) and adjustable quality
- Hum low-frequency drone oscillator
- Stereo Chorus module with bass frequency preservation and 4 waveshapes
- Amplitude Modulation module with 4 waveshapes for tremolo and ring mod effects
- Envelope Follower module that can modulate Drive, Resonator, and Hum modules
- Delay-Based Stereo Resonator module with tunable resonant pitch
- Stereo Delay module with three Recording Mediums (Tape, BBD, Data)
- Global Mix control
- Instructional computer display for built-in operational assistance
- Custom preset system with 92 factory presets declassifying Cataclysm’s signal processing
As always with Aberrant: do watch the video, even if you have no interest in the plug-in.
Introduction price is a very friendly $24.00, full price will be $36.
