Critic Reviews

Review of Convex multi-effects processor (VST/AU) by Glitchmachines - www.andrulian.com

andrulian.com

Glitchmachines' Convex 1.2 is a powerful multi-effects processor that shines with its extensive modulation options and creative unpredictability. The major update brings a polished, resizable interface and a bevy of improvements like DSP randomizers and MIDI learn enhancements, which elevate its usability and flexibility. While the non-backward compatibility due to rewritten code could be a drawback for some, the dynamic variation capabilities and the plethora of new presets make it a worthwhile tool for crafting anything from subtle to extreme glitch effects. A strong contender for anyone looking to expand their sonic palette.
