Spectral Smear + Freeze · macOS AU / VST3
Turn transients into atmosphere.
An FFT engine that smears spectral phase and freezes spectral magnitude — softening sharp, transient-rich audio into lush ambient texture, or capturing a spectrum and holding it as an infinite pad.

The signature
Freeze a spectrum and hold it forever.
Freeze captures the current spectral magnitude and holds it as an infinite pad, while Drift slowly evolves the frozen spectrum so it stays alive instead of static. Momentary Hold and 4 Capture slots let you recall snapshots during a set.
Capture the moment. Hold it indefinitely.
Under the hood
Real FFT spectral processing.
Frequency-domain smear, freeze, drift and feedback — not a reverb with a long tail.
Spectral engine
- Smear randomizes phase across FFT bins to blur transients
- Freeze holds spectral magnitude as an infinite pad
- Drift slowly evolves frozen spectra so they feel alive
- Feedback routes processed audio back for progressive smear
Tone & space
- Tilt spectral EQ — negative for darker, positive for airier
- Spread widens the stereo image with per-channel phase offsets
- Blur smooths magnitudes over time, independent of phase
Performance
- Freeze toggle plus momentary Hold
- 4 Capture slots to save and recall spectral snapshots
- Selectable FFT window size (512 / 1024 / 2048 / 4096)
Workflow
- Drag-and-drop WAV, AIFF, MP3, FLAC or OGG as source
- Real-time spectral display with a frequency grid
- A/B compare two parameter states, plus Randomize
- Dry/wet Mix, Output gain, and preset save / load
