Below you can find some of our favorite sound design tricks that you can do with Matra Plus.
1. Vocal Glitching: Apply the “Pulse” filter LFO setting with high resonance to create glitchy vocal effects.
2. Spacey Delays: Use the “Wash” control to add a touch of reverb and grain delay to create spacious, ambient delays for instrumentals.
3. Dual Filter Sweeps: Experiment with dual filter settings to create evolving soundscapes with separate low and high cut frequencies. Also try to automate the cut frequencies. An lfo can be a good way to achieve rhythmic textures.
4. Saturation Harmony: Apply saturation as a “glue” effect to add warmth and cohesion to your mix.
5. Parallel Distortion: Achieve parallel distortion effects by adjusting the dry/wet ratio of Drive to blend distorted and clean signals.
6. Tape-Style Drift: Add tape-like instability to Delay Engine #2 for vintage tape delay character.
7. Dynamic Feedback Swells: Automate feedback controls to create feedback swells that evolve over time.
8. Filtered Drive: Place the input filter before the signal hits the Drive to control the frequency content affected by distortion, perfect for dirty basslines.
