Billed as a “new concept in multi delay type effects,” Neo Plasma uses its Plasma Collision System to bring randomness to several parameters which supposedly results in a bigger and richer sound. Sporting chorus and flange effects, it’s said to be capable of sounding both classic and modern.

Soniqware picoSeries
Embracing the current fashion for ‘one knob’ plug-ins, the picoQuiet, picoEdge and picoTail are designed for noise reduction, attack transient processing and release transient processing respectively. To be strictly accurate, each plug-in has more than one knob, but they’re all pretty simple.
