FamousWhy Editor:
Just like its name clearly suggests, Psycho Toolkit is a complete package of plug-ins, aimed for sound design and editing rather than mainstream audio production.

Psycho Toolkit contains no less than 7 different tools, each with various features and options: Barnum Preamp, Excitable Boy, Flip Speed, Metal Demon, Sick Puppy, Thrash Triode and Water Glass.

In order to understand the Psycho Toolkit utility, we need to analyze each plug-in individually.

1. Barnum Preamp- a powerful and useful OTT warmth-adding analog tool. Barnum Preamp contains features like Bass (starting with -20 db and ending with a value of 20 db), Mids (Center frequency, Width, Drive and Gain) and Treble (with a value between -20 db and 20 db).
