Buzz @ djlaser.comNew Effect from Katana
“I made a little filter tool, a Butterworth filter switchable between highpass or lopass. Roll off can be changed from 6db/octave up to 120 db/octave.
This machine is assembly optimysed, thus very fast.”

Ripped from the Official Buze Site
Buzé was mentioned in the Computer Music Special 22 review of top 50 freeware tools:

Recent Nakalyne Update
If you havn’t at least checked out this little buzz-inspired program yet, what are you waiting for? Still in alpha, but shows a lot of promise.
“Newest build of Nakalyne. Fixes in many places (Note Links, LFO, Notes, Sampler, Wavetable, NKS0), added NoteChanger (not finished, but can transpose and remove excess notes per bar), and also ported the KrashBox distortion. LFO’s period parameter now works (0.01 to 30.00 seconds), the Sampler machine can play samples from the Wavetable machine, the range (in digits) can now be specified for the LFO, the TPIF (pattern import/export) functions in the Notes machine has been fixed, and the volume can be set per connection (like Buzz). Also the Notes machine is being partly recoded, so it won’t save your patterns correctly in this version, to save anything use the Export and Import pattern functions (right click on pattern view).”

Fast and Easy Reverb VST
Check Out Voxengo OldSkoolVerb
“This is a reverb unit plug-in suitable mainly for instruments and sounds which do not have sharp percussive elements to them, otherwise this reverb sounds too edgy. This reverb is great at creating additional ambience.”

Machines List @ Buzzchurch
Thanks to z_tetha over at the Buzzchurch forums for providing me with (and compiling to begin with) a list of all the Machines listed on Buzzchurch. I’ve added the link to that list under the general buzz links heading on the right.
Update: Wordpress is giving me Hell and it’s miscatagorizing links without my doing. Bear with the disorganization while I figure it out.
