Nudist Audio Newsletter #1 - 5/5/2024
Hey everybody!
Get yourselves ready for the Inaugural Nudist Audio Newsletter. (!!!) I promised to email very infrequently, and boy have I delivered.
Firstly, I want to say that I am so warmly thankful for you all. It’s been four months since the release of Nudistort, and I have been overwhelmed by the kindness of strangers, people reaching out to tell me that they love what I’m working on, and everyone’s support. And huge thanks to the beta-testing community on discord for helping me iron out all the little issues with the plugin. You rock.
It’s been so, so fun to see what everyone is getting up to with this plugin. People are using Nudistort in ways that I never could have imagined or predicted, and making *truly* insanity sounds with it. So many people are really fully embracing the spirit of the plugin, just losing themselves in the exploration of sound. That’s what I’m all about.
I’m still a student, so I’ve been running around busy with finals while trying to fix bugs, get the word out, and generally keep up Nudist Audio operations. It’s been super hectic, but such a rewarding part of my life these past few months, and you all have made that possible.
I’ll end with some questions:
1. If anyone knows anything about building guitar pedals or knows anyone who’s worked on pedals, reach out to me!
2. I’ll be in Montreal this summer - if anyone’s in the area, let’s hang out and make music!
Cheers,
Caleb
Nudist Audio Newsletter #2 - 11/26/2024
Hey there!
It’s been almost a year since the Nudistort release. Wow. Time really flies. I’ve been SO impressed by what people have been doing with this thing. To celebrate (and because of Black Friday) I’m having a 50% off sale of Nudistort, starting today and ending on December 7th. Tell your friends and loved ones!
Other fun updates:
Nudistort was used by Charli XCX in her boiler room concert... which is about the coolest thing that could have ever happened. Shoutout to the producer Mitch Schneider, who also makes plugins!
In case you missed it, the AAX release of Nudistort is officially out for anyone who uses protools
Here’s a little taste-test of something new I’ve been working on :)
Happy music-making!
Cheers,
Caleb
Nudist Audio Newsletter #3 - 6/7/2025
Hey everyone!
Over the past year, by far the most common request I’ve received has been to make more presets for Nudistort. So, I decided to reach out to some of my favorite producers who use Nudistort and extort ask if they wanted to make them for me!
INTRODUCING: the inaugural Nudistort Artist Preset Pack.
With 45 presets from Kenny Beats, Andrew Huang, Romil Hemnani, Psymun, Reske, Shane Becker, and Doug Schadt.
Get it for free here.
Also included in the update:
A new button that randomizes every parameter of Nudistort 😈
Tons and tons of bug fixes 😇
These presets are nuts. Some of them emit sounds I did not know Nudistort was capable of producing.
Hope you enjoy!
Caleb
ps. I realized I have no idea what kinds of people are using Nudistort! So I made a super short 3-minute survey. It would help me SO much if you filled it out!
pps. Been spending tons of time on audio algorithm research... some crazy new sounds are in the pipeline :D
