Magical 8bit Plug is
a plug-in style software-synthesizer for producing primitive
electronic sounds like the old 8bit game consoles. In
Macintosh environment, it runs with AU (Audio Units)-supporting
applications: ex. Logic, Digital Performer, Garageband.
In Windows environment it runs with VSTi supporting
applications: ex. Cubase. Most of the software/hardware
synthesizers include the most primitive waveform: square
wave and pulse wave. But almost none of them include
the pseudo-triangle or the low-resolution noise that
will most characterize the 8bit sound's unique taste.
Magical 8bit Plug will help you producing the old 8bit
sounds by providing those unique waveforms.

Includes 5 waveforms (square, pulse (2 kinds),
pseudo-triangle, low-resolution noise)
ADSR envelope assignment for volume
Supports pitch bending, bend range variable
Frequency sweep function
waveform
feature
square
The most
primitive digital waveform made by only low/high
of the voltage.
25%pulse,
12.5%pulse
Also primitive
waveforms made by only low/high's.
But the time ratio of low's and high's are different:
1:3 for 25%pulse, 1:7 for 12.5%pulse
triangle
The pseudo-triangle
waveform. Includes lots of anti-aliasing noise
due to the low control resolution of 8bit machines.
noise
The low-resolution
noise. A kind of white noise, but much more rougher
than ordinary white noise because of the low control
resolution of 8bit machines.
