RIPPLES Pulse arrived as a free rhythmic volume shaper requiring account registration. This tool handles sidechain pumping, gating, and LFO shaping synced to host tempo or external triggers across macOS and Windows platforms.
Five core shapes include PUMP, SOFT, TRI, SAW, and GATE, with FLIP inverting any selection. SYNC mode tracks host timing from 1/16 notes up to 4 bars while TRIG mode fires via sidechain signals using adjustable sensitivity controls.
Users manipulate depth, curve, smooth, mix, and output parameters through a draggable interface. A gain-reduction meter provides visual feedback alongside 16 factory presets for quick starting points in production sessions.
VST3 and AU formats ensure compatibility with modern DAWs on Intel, Apple Silicon, and Windows 10 systems. Installation happens exclusively through the RIPPLES Tap desktop app, which carries Apple notarization for Mac security validation.
