Bad Speaker

Bad Speaker by Softube is a lo-fi distortion effect that adds dirt, grit, and character to your tracks. It offers three distinct speaker modes—Portable Radio for crumbling toy-speaker destruction, Cassette Deck for tight bass and snarly midrange bite, and Hi-Fi Speaker for a clean starting point—each with a simple Drive control to dial in the distortion. Use the stereo slider to widen or focus your sound, and the tone slider to shift between bright and bass-heavy. Perfect for adding instant lo-fi vibe to beats, vocals, or sound design experiments, Bad Speaker suits hobby producers looking for creative inspiration and nostalgic textures without complex tweaking. Its streamlined interface keeps you in the flow, while extended features like headroom adjustment allow deeper exploration. Whether you want subtle spice or full-on destruction, Bad Speaker makes it fun to break the rules.
