I could go on and on about Chowdhury DSP stuff since I actually love their plugins. They are one of the most inventive plugin developers, providing excellent free tools for producers/engineers. They are very fantastic, and I’m surprised that they provide such wonderful plugins for free.

You have probably used some of Chowdhury DSP’s plugins. Their free tape simulator is without a doubt one of the best tape emulation plugins I have ever worked with. Another fantastic plugin is the Chow Matrix, which is one of my favorite sound design tools ever. It’s a really flexible delay plugin that lets you do some weird stuff.

They have just released the BYOD, a superb multipurpose distortion plugin that is completely free. This plugin may seem simple to you, but it is quite powerful, with all of the magic taking place behind the hood. The amazing part about BYOD is that it is an open-source plugin that you can customize to your liking if you know how to code. The BYOD plugin is a limitless plugin that allows you to experiment with various elements and create unique sounding effects. And that’s what I like about this company: they are continually coming out with something that does a lot more than most commercial plugins. It’s an excellent sound design tool that will quickly become your go-to tool for shaping sounds.

As I already mentioned, I am surprised that they provide such wonderful plugins for free. So, yeah, their products are definitely worth a shot, and if you are anything like me, you would add them to your list of favorite plugins and use them in most of your projects.

By the way, if you need assistance getting started with BYOD in your DAW, you can take a look at its manual HERE which might help your workflow.
