BLOCKFISH is a versatile compressor with countless ways to shape the incoming audio. Unlike many other digital compressors, BLOCKFISH has 'soul'. It likes to bite, but it can be tamed easily once you've learned how to use its potential. | |
You can remove the front plate and make further adjustments on the circuit board. Everything is possible: clean, transparent, loud, punchy, silky, subtle, fat. But still with a unique sonic character. | |
SPITFISH is a dead-easy to use de-esser, aimed mainly at mono or stereo vocal tracks. Just like classic analog de-essers, this unit dynamically filters out harsh, annoying s-like sounds that would otherwise 'spit' in your face. | |
FLOORFISH is a simple expander / gate device, easy to set up and offers a broad variety of processing, ranging from slight expansion, backgound noise attenuation to extreme gating effects. What's different from similar units is the ability to scan the source and adjust the transistion curve accordingly. |

Latest changes: March 25, 2005 OSX (AU) versions: Urs @ u-he updated the fillets so that they pass the AU validation procedure of Logic 7. April 04, 2004: version 1.1 available as AudioUnits (AU) for MacOS X) Feb 19, (taken from the 'news' section): "I've updated the v1.1 zip file of the 'fish fillets' (PC/Win): the 'blockfish' compressor tended to produce some low-frequency rumble noise at high saturation settings and the 'complex' mode switched in. This has been fixed as well as some minor changes within the compressor path. However, the version number is still stuck at 1.1. It's too much of work to change this in all of the three plugins, their interface and the manuals just because of 10 lines of code that had changed. If you're unsure that you've got the latest version: the new file 'blockfish.dll' is date of Feb 16." version 1.1:
