Puremagnetik Shoal is an audio effect that combines envelope following, pitch-tracked amplitude modulation and bit crushing. It responds to the incoming sound, letting you move from gentle vibrato-like movement to rough, lo-fi textures without treating every note as a static signal.

The STRIDE control adjusts the envelope derived from your input, shaping how the effect follows the performance. An oscillator tracks the input pitch and supplies amplitude modulation, producing harmonic detail that changes with the material you feed it. DIGITS adds bit crushing for a more fractured tone with folded overtones. Together, these processes cover restrained motion, bright harmonic shimmer and deliberately coarse results.

Shoal is a useful choice for hobby producers and sound designers who want to reshape existing audio rather than start with a new instrument. Try it when a part needs subtle instability, extra harmonic character or a stripped-back digital edge. Inspired by the dark textures of Micah Frank and Kodomo’s Vondisy collaboration, it is particularly relevant to experimental and texture-focused production.
