ChowCentaur - Free Klon overdrive pedal plugin
Friday April 9, 2021. 08:39 AM , from Gearslutz
Not super brand new but I didn't find a thread for it.
From the genius that made the very impressive (and also free) ChowTape, here is a very nice emulation of the famous Klon Centaur. There is an academic paper that goes with it too, as the plugin was apparently an exercise in comparing analog modeling techniques ( circuit modeling vs neural network machine learning). There is - get this - a switch that allows you to use either of two models, one is a more traditional circuit model, and one is a neural network version. The paper went a bit over my head but it was interesting nonetheless. The plugin sounds pretty dang good to me (though I've never tried a real Klon, to be fair). I prefer the neural network one I think, though it's a little less bright. They talk about why that might be in the paper. Anyway - just discovered this and thought it should be more widely known about. Especially since as far as I know there aren't any Klon plugins currently available. https://chowdsp.com/products.html#centaur
