BiFilter 2.5 - now freeware!

"After nearly 20 years BiFilter has become vintage and even though it's no longer profitable to remain a commercial product, we feel that more people should deserve an opportunity to enjoy this useful tool. That's why we decided to release one last update and turn it into freeware. BiFilter is now available for free and you are allowed to share it with your friends. We want to say a big THANK YOU to all customers who support the development of our products, by purchasing our software! Enjoy!"

 
Tone2 BiFilter VST plugin
What is BiFilter?

BiFilter is a stereo multi-mode filter with a selection of 47 different sounding filter types. These filters are known from our famous Gladiator synthesizer. You can combine all filters with 8 additional distortion types, FM, AM, wave-shaping and lo-fi effects to create new sounds. A high precision display shows the frequency response of the filter in real-time. Since you can always see and hear what's happening, BiFilter is very user-friendly.
