Audiobus: Use your music apps together.
What is Audiobus? — Audiobus is an award-winning music app for iPhone and iPad which lets you use your other music apps together. Chain effects on your favourite synth, run the output of apps or Audio Units into an app like GarageBand or Loopy, or select a different audio interface output for each app. Route MIDI between apps — drive a synth from a MIDI sequencer, or add an arpeggiator to your MIDI keyboard — or sync with your external MIDI gear. And control your entire setup from a MIDI controller.
Download on the App StoreAudiobus is the app that makes the rest of your setup better.

I'm loving these sounds, thank you!
I'm not sure how new it is, but it's new to me, and it's free. You can download Origin from Cymatics, free from here:
https://cymatics.fm/products/origin-vintage-plugin
From the website:
Origin is a vintage/lofi plugin created to make your samples sound like they’re straight from an old tape machine.
The main knob is a resampler/bitcrusher with two special filters to make your samples sound “underwater”.
The other four knobs are Tape Saturation, Noise, Movement, and Chorus. Using these 5 powerful controls you can instantly give your samples a vintage vibe.

Log into your Arturia account for the best price. On offer until February 2nd, 2023. There's also a very good price on a bundle deal with Arturia V Collection 9.
I found some lovely ambient friendly presets for Minifreak (hardware and software) here:

They're demonstrated here:

I donˋt Knowledge if it is prohibited by forumrules, if so please delete 🙂
For anyone (from Europe I guess, i donˋt know about taxThings thats the only reason) who is interested, i’m selling a license of Arturia Fragments for 40€ (license can be instantly installed, because I unregistered it from my Arturia backend, after i got the fx Collection 3).
Have you seen SoundPaint? https://soundpaint.com/ - a free engine with a lot of cool features and a growing set of instruments - some of them are free and most are pretty reasonably priced.
Thanks, I'll take a look.
I think some of the sounds will be right up your street. If you purchase one over $15 there's a code to save $15 here http://soundpaint.refr.cc/nigelt
If you don’t sell it here, try knobcloud.com. I already bought a number of second hand licenses there and it works flawlessly. It’s kind of a marketplace where they serve as the trustworthy middleman between buyers and sellers.
@krassmann
So basically you are saying, knobcloud. Good. Good experiences no ripoffs or such? I was hesitating but your comment as a rocksolid member of this community… I will check it again :-)
Thank you! Just choosing now.
That's reassuring to hear. I've been wondering about KnobCloud.

All of that random clatter is like an instant migraine headache for me.
Go ahead.
I started using it on his advice given earlier here in the forum, and I have become a regular. Some of the deals are really good. Controlled payment and communications, seller and buyer history, smooth sailing. All the sellers I bought from were cooperative. I mean, apply the usual caution but that goes without saying.
Dear VR Pro 3d spatialiser - binaural, ambiosonics and multi-channel production plug-in. Great deal - less than half price...
https://www.dear-reality.com/collections/all/products/dearvr-pro
I know knobcloud, thanks. But I don't know why, don't really trust it - kinda weird. Covid made some serious madness in my security thinking
But yes. I really think, I give it a go. Trade some of my unused things. Software won't get better.
Ps, The Dear Reality Plugins are often cheaper at Plugin-Alliance - but not everybody likes PA
Thanks for the code, I bought Cinematic Ambiences. Very happy with that.
Think I only saw the Pro version a couple of times in a PA sale in the last couple of years - it's $349 on there at the moment...
