| Description: | DIGITIZE is a unique creative mixing tool that combines bit crushing and noise injection. DIGITIZE lets you add perceived warmth, fullness and energy to any sound source. There are two types of bit crushing modes and twelve noise floors to choose from. Noise is inherently an unavoidable artifact present in all analog audio equipment. Historically pre 2000s, sound engineers would to try minimise noise as much as possible. However, with the development of 24-bit and 32-bit float bit depth, it’s now possible to not have enough noise. With DIGITIZE, you are encouraged to add noise into your audio signal. Introducing subtle amounts of noise with DIGITIZE fills out the audio spectrum, increases perceived loudness and adds movement that is perceived as warmth. DIGITIZE also features a built-in envelope follower internally linked to each bit crusher mix internally, that can also be side chained to an external input. Perfect for adding moving bit crushed textures to drums and other creative uses. There are two bit crusher types and there are 12 noise floors recorded from various sources like VHS, amplifiers, EQs, compressors, tape, vinyl and computers. Internally, DIGITIZE feeds the noise floors into the chosen bit crusher, so the noise floors are also subject bit crushing. This signal flow recreates the ADC (Analog to Digital) conversion stage in primitive digital sampling technology (~1990 – 1994). It’s recommended to use DIGITIZE as a resampling tool when bouncing samples in Ableton.
