Polarity-RES v0.1.3 WiN MAC LiNUX

The plugin opens directly onto a large spectrum analyzer. Left click to add or select a resonator dot, drag to retune it, right click to remove it. The graph is the interface.

Place up to 32 active resonator dots across the spectrum. Each one is a steep bandpass filter you tune by hand. X position controls frequency, Y position controls band gain.

Toggle note snap to lock dots to chromatic pitches, or harmonic snap to lock them to a harmonic series. Useful when you want resonators in tune with the track instead of free-floating.

Drive the resonator bank with MIDI. The dots follow the note input so you can play the resonator like an instrument or have it lock to whatever is playing the channel.

Spectrum hold freezes the analyzer so you can see and pick targets calmly. Learn-from-spectrum places resonator dots that match the held spectrum so you can shape from it.

Frequency spread widens or tightens the placement of all dots around their centers. Stereo detune spread offsets the left and right channels slightly for width and life.

Steepness controls how narrow each bandpass filter is. Resonance controls how much each dot rings. Push it for vocal-like character or pull back for cleaner spectral shaping.

Inject internal pink noise into the resonator bank so the dots sing even when the input is quiet. Good for drones, beds, and self-played resonator tones.

Shift every resonator dot up or down by a global offset. Useful for sweeping the whole field or matching the bank to a different key without redrawing it.

Blend the resonator output with the dry signal. Send it as a subtle ringing color, push it to a full resonator wash, or run it 100% wet on a parallel bus.

Wet output gain with RMS matching keeps comparisons honest. Brighter or more resonant settings do not win simply by being louder when you flip back and forth.

Native JUCE interface that resizes cleanly. The analyzer stays the focus at any window size so the spectrum-graph workflow never feels cramped.

Bypass for instant A/B. Clear wipes all dots so you can start over. Center re-centers the dot field so the graph stays workable as you make changes.

For resonator and spectral shaping workflows that often need expensive commercial tools, this gives you a free option without login, email capture, telemetry, or iLok.
