Announcing Noxious 1.5
We’re almost ready for the new release of Noxious, version 1.5. This will be a really major release with lots of improvements.
- True stereo width
- Waveform variations
- Standard serial or parallel filter mode with filter mix
- Vowel filter
- Random modulation sources reset at each note
- Major performance enhancements
Of course, all this comes with some new presets to demonstrate the new features.
Here is an audio peek of what it sounds like, especially the stereo width and some new presets. Done without special effects apart from the reverb and echo.
The good part is that performance improvements are so good that this song has been built on a humble Mac Mini with 16 instances of Noxious at no more than 50% of the CPU load.
Announcing Noxious version 1.1
Version 1.1 of Noxious is about to come out in the following days. It fixes some minor bugs but most of all adds some new modifier, filter and wave types.
- New filters : band reject and new low pass type II with slopes ranging from 6 dB/oct. to 48 dB/oct.
- New modifiers : duplicate, level randomize, pitch randomize and limit.
- New waves : fractal, quasi-sawtooth, shepard and alien.
- New modulation destinations : envelope decay and release.
- 40+ new patches including some combinator patches.
And for those of you just waiting to make the leap to Noxious, this new version will come at a slightly lower price too!

Revamped Volt SL-1 with version 1.1
