You can even use slice sizes that correspond to musical notes by clicking on a virtual keyboard - exploit this to create melodies and arpeggios. You could set it to just eighth-notes and 16th-notes, for simple rhythmic fills or you could allow only the fastest settings, for crazy IDM-esque buzzing.
It enables you to restrict the Stutter module to just the slice sizes that you want to use. There are plenty of 'glitch' plug-ins on the market, but Stutter Edit's Stutter Matrix is one of the features that sets it apart. Much of what Stutter Edit does could be done manually in any DAW with some extensive audio chopping and effects routing, but that's nowhere near as simple and fun. We couldn't resist running three instances of Stutter Edit in series to see how it would hold up - this resulted in a complex sound with smooth transitions. Each effect can work in a stereo linked manner or with separate settings per channel. It needn't be a plain linear transition from minimum to maximum, as there's a setting for curve shape. When you hit a MIDI note, the parameter glides smoothly from beginning to end, then starts over. Once you get into editing the gestures, the software becomes more than just a novel curiosity.Įach module has 'split' sliders for its available parameters (eg, delay time for delays, bit depth for the bitcrusher), and while these can be set at fixed positions, the real fun is had by setting a start and end point. Using even the simplest loops as a starting point, it's possible to go wild with the gestures, and the results are instantly musical. This was all without touching a single control on the front panel.
By default, these control the global filter (a DJ-style combined low-pass/high-pass affair) and starting point in the gesture.

We had a couple of hours of self-indulgent fun running tracks through the plug-in and messing with the pitch and mod wheels. There are hundreds of presets from the likes of Richard Devine and BT himself, so it really is a case of plug and play.
