Cryostasis is a spectral inertia effect that lets you progressively smear audio until it freezes in time. The continuously variable Freeze knob offers smooth transitions or partial freezes, while the auto switch can be timed in milliseconds or musical measures. Shape the frozen tail with the Size control—lower values for robotic textures, higher for smooth atmospheres—and add motion with the pitch shifter for tape-stop slowdowns or the frequency shifter for dissonant risers. The Wash control diffuses the effect into a lush modulated reverb, ideal for ambient soundscapes. Bit and Rate reducers deliver LoFi glitches, and high-pass/low-pass filters make it perfect for transitions. Use it to create frozen vocal loops for samplers or evolving textures in electronic and experimental music. It suits hobby producers exploring sound design, ambient, and glitch. Activation is dongle-free and works on all your computers.
