Manual: Gargle Plugin

Gargle plugin window

The Gargle plugin creates a gargling sound effect by rapidly modulating the amplitude (volume) of the input signal. This effect produces rhythmic pulsations that can range from a simple tremolo to extreme, robotic modulation effects useful for special effects.

Parameters

Rate

• Controls the frequency of the amplitude modulation, determining how rapidly the volume fluctuates. Lower rates (around 1 to 10 Hz) create slower, tremolo-like effects. High rates sound more robotic and can create ring modulation-like effects.
• Range: 1 Hz to 1,000 Hz

Wave Shape

• Selects the waveform used for amplitude modulation. Triangle creates a smooth, gradual volume change, while Square abruptly switches the signal between full volume and silence, creating a gate effect at low rates and causing even more harmonic distortion at higher rates.
• Options: Triangle, Square
