Almost infinite manipulation
Equipped with 10 different effects including pitch processing, formants, harmonics, sound blurring, pseudo-stereo, and more, Manipulator can take a normal voice and transform it into a new, complex, and fascinating sound. Other monophonic and rhythmic sources also work particularly well with Manipulator.
Real-time pitch shifting
Just like I Wish, Manipulator allows users to accept MIDI data in real time, allowing you to control pitch shifting on the fly via a MIDI controller. Didn't like the vocal melody in a take? Play it as you hear it! Manipulator seamlessly transposes the pitch and adds a unique texture to the incoming audio. Manipulator supports up to 4 polyphonic voices when used with a MIDI input.
The infected mushroom's secret weapon
A large part of Infected Mushroom's signature sound is their variety of vocal manipulation techniques. Most of the voices on their albums are actually mangled, edited, chopped, and heavily processed, all in the pursuit of making them sound like synthesizers.
It is not hard to see why creating the latest plugin for voice transformations was the obvious next step after "I Wish".
Through the unique process of "artistic feedback", where artists use constantly changing prototypes to make their own music, Manipulator has been transformed and evolved into what it is today. Throughout its creation, Infected Mushroom has used it extensively on their 2017 release "Return to the Sauce".
