BOOTY PLUGs

A GIFT FROM REBOOT

SO… WHAT’S ALL THIS NOISE?

Hey, I’m Reboot.

I started building these little noise machines for my own studio. Things I wanted to play with. Things that made me grin. Somehow, the pigs took over.

They may look funny, but they’re REBOOT sound-approved.

I got tired of staring at overly technical interfaces and hyper-modern UIs. Making music isn’t about owning the latest high-end mastering-whatever plugin. It’s about your ears, your ideas and having fun.

So here’s BOOTY PLUGs: my free collection of audio plugins. Simple-to-understand devices, tons of possibilities — made for experimenting, happy accidents and those “wait… do that again” moments.

No purchase required. Just tools from my studio to yours.

Dedicated to my inner child.

Made for the love of making noise.

THE COLLECTION / BETA

SMALL MACHINES.
BIG PERSONALITIES.

Eight tools from my studio to yours.

01 / Synthesizer · BETA

TUCCILLATOR

A six-voice synthesizer with a direct, hands-on layout. Start with a preset, then shape the source, brightness, note envelope and space. The arpeggiator can turn held notes into moving patterns.

YOUR FIRST MINUTE

02 / Creative multi-FX · BETA

BOOTYLIFTER

A rising, moving multi-effect for transitions, textures and happy accidents. LIFT brings the selected effects to life; DROP RELEASE lets their stored sound fall away. Start with one effect, then combine them with intention.

YOUR FIRST MINUTE

Start at zero Insert BOOTYLIFTER on an audio track. Leave INPUT and OUTPUT at 0 dB, MIX at 100%, and LIFT at 0%. Open the lower panel when you want the detailed controls.
Pick one colour Choose a factory preset or raise one effect in Core Motion. Turn LIFT up slowly while a loop plays. Watch the balloon, but judge the result by ear.
Let it go Try DROP RELEASE after building a sound. Compare with BYPASS, then adjust MIX and OUTPUT so the effect sits comfortably in the track.

03 / Compression & drive · BETA

BOOTYCLAPPER

A compact way to add weight, control peaks and push a sound into saturation. INPUT, THRESHOLD and OUTPUT work together; EXTREME adds a stronger character, while TRUE PEAK provides extra output protection.

YOUR FIRST MINUTE

Start gently Insert it on an audio track. Start with INPUT 0 dB, THRESHOLD -6 dB, OUTPUT 0 dB, EXTREME off and TRUE PEAK on.
Find the weight Loop a passage with clear attacks. Raise INPUT gradually, then compare THRESHOLD settings. Listen to the attack and the body.
Match and compare Lower OUTPUT to compare at similar loudness. Use your DAW bypass and listen in the arrangement as well as solo.

04 / MIDI ideas & chords · BETA

OINKCHESTRA

Three ways to write MIDI: CHORD MACHINE turns played keys into chords; TRUFFLE builds one sequence; DIALOGUE alternates a call and a response. All three can play one connected instrument. The optional OINK B RECEIVER is only for DIALOGUE when its response should play a second instrument.

YOUR FIRST MINUTE

Connect an instrument In Logic, insert the AU in a MIDI FX slot above an instrument. In Ableton, use VST3 and route its MIDI to an instrument on another track. Chapter 01 gives the exact setup.
Hear your first idea Choose CHORD MACHINE and play a key, or choose TRUFFLE and press PLAY. If FOLLOW DAW is enabled, start the DAW transport too.
Keep a useful result Turn EVOLVE off when you like a phrase and save your DAW project. Use PANIC if notes remain held.
