What is NoiseShaper?

Imagine trap melodies crackling like vintage vinyl. EDM synths that fill the speakers with high-end electricity. Drums sizzling with classic console hiss. Pianos submerged in bubbling water. Cassette house grooves, retro gear hum, broken digital textures, organic field recordings… and so much more.

Explore an expansive world of noise with mix-ready noise sources by BT, Cyclick and InsideInfo. Layer them onto any sound in just one click – with built-in dynamic control, NoiseShaper reacts to your music, for noise that breathes with every beat.

Running inside Cableguys' ShaperBox 3 effects plugin, use NoiseShaper on its own or with other Shapers – they all work in exactly the same way, stacking up to create elaborate, multilayered effects that'll make your productions stand out.

Control level and pitch

Shape the Noise level to turn static noise into percolating rhythms, pumping patterns and spot FX that perfectly support your sounds.

Transpose noise textures up to +/-24 semitones with the new Pitch parameter – now modulatable, for everything from subtle life and modulated drum tones to wild FX, custom risers, and more. Hear 3 examples in the video.

Dynamic

Dynamic and alive

Forget boring static noise with no dynamics – in NoiseShaper, the noise breathes with every beat. Follow mode adds rhythmically synced sizzle. Duck mode fills the gaps with lo-fi textures.

Drawing

Waveforms that you design

With Cableguys' easiest ever waveform drawing tools, it's easy to target specific mix elements – for instance, add noise to just the snare in a loop. You can even design your own rhythmic noise patterns.

Sync

Locks to the beat

Sync your noise patterns to beats and bars so they're always locked to your track. Go from 1/4-note pumping noise to 8-bar risers and beyond, all with sample accuracy.

Audio Trigger
NEW

Follows any rhythm

Trigger your noise patterns in any rhythm at all using MIDI. Or use powerful new audio triggering that tightly tracks the rhythm of drums, loops, instruments – even full mixes.
