Quick Start
“Open Finisher FLUXX in your favorite DAW. Pick a preset from the list. Turn the big knob to get more of whatever effect you’ve chosen, and play with the four smaller knobs till you get what you want. Repeat as necessary”. That’s the easiest way to get started, read along if you want more information.
Although the Modes are more visible on the UI, the Presets are really what you want to play with first. The difference? A preset changes all settings of FLUXX, including levels, Mode, Finisher knob, and Vari knobs. The Mode just switches the effect configuration but leaves the knobs and levels alone.
What’s Inside Finisher FLUXX?
You could think of Finisher FLUXX as a huge effect rack with almost unlimited slots for effect processors, all of which can be activated and adjusted at a simple click on the Mode selector.
Finisher FLUXX features over 50 different effect types – get sounds moving: From granular beat cutting to step-sequenced distortion – with a total of over 76 Effect Slots distributed across 2 Busses plus a Master Bus. That’s quite some real estate if you’d try to build that in hardware.
The knobs can be wired to every parameter of every active effect, in varying degrees. No worries – this has already been done for you.
For example, the big orange Finisher knob always blends between dry signal and effect, often also speeding up a phaser while introducing a little distortion and mixing in a dash of reverb.
The four Vari knobs adjust the effect to your scenario or taste.
Every Mode and its Knob assignments are a complex sound design piece to create one particular “change of scene” for your track.
Switch Modes, turn the knobs – and make your tracks more beautiful, interesting, bigger, tougher, or change them entirely. Achieving the same dynamic and motion in conventional effect plugins would require dozens of automation lanes and kill serendipity entirely.
