Screw Engine VST

Screw Engine - The Chopped & Screwed VST Plugin

Screw Engine is an effect plugin that brings the legendary chopped and screwed sound directly into your DAW. 

Inspired by Houston's own DJ technique, this plugin gives you precise control over the signature slowed-down, pitch-shifted, and stuttering effects that defined a generation of Southern hip-hop.

Producers can easily create chopped and screwed versions for a slowed down alternate album. 

Artists can also use this to export existing tracks and release a chopped and screwed version in minutes.

Simply add this effect to the master, set up the settings in the options and render and listen to the results.

Core:

• SCREW - Variable-speed pitch shifting (0-12 semitones down) with authentic DJ-style slowing
• DRANK - Deep flanging effect for that syrupy, doubled sound
• SMOKE - Phaser effect adding swirling, psychedelic texture
• TAPE - Analog tape emulation with wow, flutter, and natural drift
• CHOP - Chopped and Screwed style skipping effect with smooth DJ-style deck switching

Features:

• Auto-Chop - Beat synced stuttering that triggers automatically on downbeats and snare hits 
• Auto-Modulation - Set min/max ranges and speeds for Drank, Smoke, and Tape effects to evolve organically with your track
• All auto Effects are Toggleable
• DAW Sync - Automatically locks to your project tempo for perfect timing, It is vital that your project matches your tracks bpm for the most on point chopping.
• Mix Control - Blend wet/dry signals for subtle enhancement or full transformation, full wet is suggested for best results.

Perfect for hip-hop, trap, phonk, experimental, and any genre looking to add that slowed-down, hypnotic Houston sound to their productions.
