Cymatics HOTLINE emulates all the real ways a phone degrades audio. Think dropping bad signal, tinny speaker emulation, speak and spell robotics, bitcrushing, and distortion. It is basically an old Skype connection in plugin form, ready to grunge up any sound in seconds.
HOTLINE is currently unavailable, but it will return. Join the waitlist for updates & a chance to grab HOTLINE during our next Livestream on September 24th.
We’ll email you when we go live, so you’ll have a chance to get access once it’s available.
Any DAW
Preview how HOTLINE transforms any sound.
HOTLINE emulates the many real ways phones degrade sound, from a dropping bad signal to the tinny crunch of a cheap phone speaker.
Reach for speaker emulation, speak and spell style robotics, bitcrushing, and distortion to rough up vocals, melodies, drums, or full loops.
It is basically an old Skype connection emulator, so any clean sound can instantly feel like a lo fi phone call.
Drop HOTLINE onto any track and pick the kind of phone degradation you want.
Blend bad signal, speaker emulation, speak and spell, bitcrushing, and distortion until it sounds like the connection is barely holding on.
Push it gently for a subtle lo fi color, or crank it for a fully broken, glitched out phone call.
When it sounds right, print it straight into your project with no extra routing or gear.
