transient overtone fuzz

transient overtone fuzz

A high-gain fuzz with an octave-up ring on top, gated by playing dynamics: soft notes sputter and cut out, hard notes come through with the octave overtone riding along.

An attack/sustain shaper sits ahead of the fuzz, so the same controls that rework your picking dynamics also decide what opens the gate and drives the clipping. Short attack settings make the fuzz spit; long sustain settings make it roar.

It runs the same DSP as the module in Tangle; nothing is cut down for the standalone version. One licence covers both: this plugin, and the same module unlocked inside the rack.

what each knob does

Six controls, no menus. Here they are on the panel itself.

it modulates itself

Across The Sea ships with the full CV/logic modulation section every Tangle standalone carries. Pick a modulator, drag a patch cable onto any knob, and that control moves on its own, no DAW automation required.

it keeps what you just played

A rolling capture strip runs beneath the panel, always recording the plugin's output. No transport, nothing to arm. Played something great while you were just tweaking? Click-drag across the history waveform to select it, then drag the slice straight into your DAW timeline.

ARM flips it to ring-capture for hands-free takes.

it unlocks in tangle too

Across The Sea is a module from Tangle, the free cable-patchable rack. Buying it here licenses both: this standalone plugin, and across the sea unlocked inside the rack, where you can patch it into any other module you own. There is no second purchase and no upgrade path; the rack itself costs nothing.

Sign in once in the rack and your licences follow your account: a module bought this morning appears at the next licence check, on every machine you install on.
