// core behaviour

Glitch that never locks in.

Three independently glitched bands, probabilistic sequencing, and click-free capture.

Engine

Three bands, LR4.

A phase-coherent LR4 crossover splits the signal; each band glitches independently.

Sequencing

Never mechanical.

Probabilistic sequencing and a walk system keep back-to-back stutters off the grid.

Capture

Transient-aware.

Captures bias toward low-energy regions, so glitches don't click.

// controls

Fast to dial in.

Four controls. Chaos goes from shimmer to full spectral meltdown.

All parameters

Parameter	What it does
Chaos	0–100 — stutter intensity (Tame · Shift · Fracture · Melt)
Lo-Fi	0–100 — bit reduction, decimation, companding, tilt EQ (Clean · Warm · Grain · Crush)
Tempo	Host-sync, or free-run 20–300 BPM
Power	True hard bypass for instant signal recovery

Just tried it and blown me away. The best of its kind since the old 32bit buffer override.

Anonymous ★★★★★

Really interesting for freezing the sound and creating dark, industrial ambient music with a vintage lo-fi vibe.

Anonymous ★★★★★

Thanks to cloph-dsp for this cool effect plugin. Try or buy it… You can't lose!

Official Buta Bhatti ★★★★★

Great.

// good to know

Good to know.

Is it really zero latency?

Yes — the engine processes in real time, with no lookahead.

Does it sync to my DAW?

Yes. Tempo hosts-syncs, or free-runs from 20 to 300 BPM.

Mac support?

macOS builds are halted for compiling issues. Windows 10/11 (64-bit) is the supported target.

Can I try it for free?

Yes. It is pay what you want, including $0. Choose any amount and continue to Gumroad checkout.

Freeze95 | Stutter / Freeze FX · VST3 · CLAP

A zero-latency stochastic stutter and freeze effect with a three-band glitch engine in a retro CRT interface. Pay what you want.

Freeze95 from cloph-dsp is a zero-latency stochastic stutter and freeze effect designed to transform static audio into evolving, organic textures. Housed in a retro CRT interface inspired by 90s computer crashes, the plugin uses a three-band glitch engine to add unpredictable motion to your tracks.

The plugin dynamically splits your signal using a phase-coherent LR4 crossover. Each of the three frequency bands is independently glitched using randomized capture, reverse, slow-mo, and granular algorithms. Under the hood, probabilistic sequencing and a "walk" system ensure back-to-back stutters never lock into a mechanical grid.
