The idea with this plugin for Linux is to produce a more full sound - bigger, more impressive.

Manifold is a harmonizer effect that splits an input signal into as many as 20 individual voices, each of which are then detuned and scattered around the stereo panorama.

Manifold can produce a large number of results all the way from subtle modulations to spark up dull sounds, to more extreme detuning that fattens the weakest of input sources.

Features:

• Input audio signal is split into 4 to 20 individual tuned voices
• Process only a specific frequency range by using the highpass and lowpass filters
• Flexible panning allows the effect to produce sounds that can be tightly focused in the centre of the stereo image, spread between the extreme stereo edges, or anywhere in-between.
• MIDI Learn mode for easy integration with any MIDI hardware controller.
