ZERO TO BRILLIANT
IN SECONDS
Open up a preset and tweak the five master effects controls to transform a sound in seconds, it's not only simple, but an incredibly fun way to explore the multi-effects engine in Sprite
Tap the buttons to bypass each element, or slide the faders to make subtle changes, you can use as many of the elements as you wish. Before you know it, you have morphed the sound beyond recognition.
Make sure you save the preset because one thing is certain with Sprite, you are not likely to make the same effect twice!
FEATURES WALKTHROUGH
"It's unusual to find a multi-fx plugin designed as well as this one. You can grab it and start getting beautiful sounds immediately from the really simple interface, but then when you want to dive deeper you hit the edit button and you're under the hood getting into the real details of the sound. Great sounds and great interface. Love it."

GO BEYOND THE MAGIC
Unlike many 'magic' or 'single control' plugins we've given you access to the 'secret sauce' behind the sound, so you can go deeper and craft the effects to audio perfection.
Shape every part of the multi-effects just how you want, with enough control to take the distortion from a little added warmth to extreme breakup. With multiple ways to modulate the sound you can do from a gentle movement to a sweeping flanger.
Delay offers everything from super clean to gnarly tape and reverb can sit the effects in anything from a tiny room to a huge stadium. Add EQ, compression and pitch shift and you've got yourself the ultimate sound design effects toolkit where originality is the name of the game.
Soon Sprite will be finding itself in everything from dance hits to Hollywood blockbusters...with no two sounds likely to be the same.

"Another AIR plugin that I didn't know I needed until I tried it. Not only is this a huge time saver but it is also a hub of inspiration inside of one, very eye catching GUI. Don't be fooled by the simplicity of the knobs, there's an option to get very granular too, so it's the best of both worlds. I tried some of the textured presets on a house track I'm working on and in less than a few clicks I've got more ear candy than I know what to do with. If you love automating multiple layers of effects, and want a simpler, more exciting way of doing it, this is the plugin for you."

"Sprite really took me by surprise. I pulled it into some tracks that I thought were finished and made them even more alive. Specifically, it single handedly perked up the electronic drums in a way that would have normally taken 2-3 other plugins."
