§ what it does

buffer-capture glitch

A transient-triggered stutter, with no host clock and no button. Each detected hit captures the next 50–500 ms and repeats it a set number of times before the dry signal returns.

Playback speed runs from fast-forward down through a dead stop into full reverse, so a repeat can race, freeze or run backwards.

The trigger responds to how far a hit stands out from what surrounds it rather than to absolute level, so one setting keeps working when the source gets louder or quieter. WEAR re-encodes each repeat from the previous one, so a long train degrades like a copy of a copy.

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.

§ every control

what each knob does

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

listens for hitstrig sets how sharp a transient must be to arm the capture.
grab a slicelen holds between fifty and five hundred milliseconds of the incoming audio.
speed and reversespeed replays faster or slower, and below halfway the slice runs backward.
§ built-in modulation

it modulates itself

Twitch Soundie 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.

lfoSmooth cyclic movement: sine, triangle, square, sample & hold, or a shape you draw.
curveA looping contour you draw by hand: smooth, spiked or stepped.
noiseStepped, smoothed or slewed randomness for texture and wander.
transientListens for hits, then fires a trigger plus an envelope on every transient it hears.
env followTracks how loud you are playing and turns that into a control voltage.
timingSpreads hits as evenly as possible across a bar, so rhythms land musically instead of bunched.
memoryA loop of random voltages that repeats until you let it mutate, one step at a time.
driftSix related voltages from two particles moving through a shared field: they drift together, not separately.
§ always recording

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.

§ one purchase, two plugins

it unlocks in tangle too

Twitch Soundie is a module from Tangle, the free cable-patchable rack. Buying it here licenses both: this standalone plugin, and twitch soundie 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.
