Tumult by Consistent Interruption

Free VST That Adds Noise, Texture, and Vintage Soul to Your Mixes

When Silence Isn’t Golden: Tumult Brings Beautiful Chaos to Your Mix

In a world obsessed with clean mixes and polished sounds, Tumult from Consistent Interruption reminds us of the raw, imperfect charm of noise. Not noise as a flaw — but as a creative layer. This free and open-source VST3 plugin is more than a noisemaker. It’s a sound designer’s secret weapon, a vintage texturizer, and a character enhancer for those looking to color outside the lines.

Texturize. Distort. Embrace the Imperfection.

Tumult doesn’t just make noise — it sculpts it. With 50 hand-picked noise profiles, from dusty tape hiss to mechanical grit and environmental rumble, the plugin invites you to reimagine texture as a feature, not a flaw. These noises can be layered onto your track with finesse or fury, depending on the mood of your mix.

• Want a static background like a lo-fi tape loop? Use Raw mode.
• Prefer noise that ducks away behind your vocal? Try Duck mode.
• Looking for a more dynamic, reactive noise layer? Follow mode ensures your textures move only when your main signal does.

Built-In 5-Band EQ — Shape It Your Way

Unlike many texture generators, Tumult lets you go beyond the preset. A flexible 5-band EQ allows you to tailor the noise’s frequency curve, accentuating highs for sizzle or rolling off lows for subtlety. Best of all, this EQ affects only the noise — your source signal remains untouched, pure, and intact.

A VST That Understands Its Role

Tumult is subtle when it needs to be, intense when you want it to be. Use it on:

• Vocals for analog character
• Drum loops to add movement and space
• Synths to inject tape-era warmth
• Ambient soundscapes for a layer of sonic storytelling

Thanks to its ‘Mix’ and ‘Gain’ controls, you can decide exactly how loud and present the noise should be in your signal path. Whether it’s barely-there texture or full-on chaos, the control is yours.

Open Source, Zero Cost, Full Freedom

One of Tumult’s standout features? It’s free and open source — available as a 64-bit VST3 for both Linux and Windows. No registration. No demo limitations. No watermark. Just plug and play.

You’re invited not just to use it, but to explore its code, customize it, and contribute to its evolution. It’s rare to find a plugin this powerful in both sonic output and philosophical openness.

Download and Disturb the Silence

Tumult by Consistent Interruption is not just a plugin — it’s a protest against sterile sound. A celebration of grit. A tool for those who believe that sometimes, noise is the message.
