On the left hand side you'll find INPUT trim (with a limiter), OUTPUT level and CLIP mix, a FILTER that varies form LOWPASS to HIGHPASS and can be placed in various points in the signal chain, and a FEEDBACK parameter which can be used to produce everything from comb filtering effects to digital shrieks. The majority of the interface is taken up by the sound parameters themselves. Next to the preset selection are switches that allow you to control certain parameters via MIDI keys, opening the door to more real-time use. Perhaps they were trying to replicate some of the archaic methods of preset management on old devices, but I think this is one area where users will forgive you for taking some liberties in bringing it into the present. Why force you to save entire banks? Let's please just have an alphanumerical display where we can see preset names and select sounds independent of banks. I'm just going to get this out of the way and say the current preset management system kind of stinks. Additionally, there is a two-digit display that allows you to select different banks, each of which contains several presets.
SONIC CHARGE PERMUT8 MANUAL
The topmost part of the interface consists of a pulldown menu where you'll find initialize and randomize commands, save and load, links to the manual and pop-up tutorials, etc. The manual is well-done and easy to follow, which is important, as this isn't the most obvious plug-in to figure out at first.
SONIC CHARGE PERMUT8 FULL
This is enough to get you messing around, but if you really want to understand Permut8, you're going to need to crack the full manual, which is available as a PDF.
SONIC CHARGE PERMUT8 WINDOWS
Permut8 has very basic documentation in the form of pop-up windows that come up the first time you launch the plug-in.
SONIC CHARGE PERMUT8 SERIAL NUMBER
When you purchase Permut8, you simply select "REGISTER" from the pulldown menu at the top of the interface and enter the serial number you received. Add to this filter, saturation, feedback and other effects to apply to the signal as a whole and you have some serious sound-mangling firepower under the hood here. Depending on the operation you carry out, you can get reverse effects, beat repeater/buffer effects, comb filtering, flanging, bitcrushing, and more. That doesn't sound all that impressive on its own, but what makes Permut8 different is it allows you to switch on and off different "operators"in the modeled processor that further effect the sound. It's based around a 12-bit digital delay with a variable sample rate from 0 to 352k. Permut8 was inspired by the lofi tastiness of 12-bit digital devices from the 80's.

The reason is, although there may be tons of glitch and buffer effects out there, no one has quite done it in the same way Sonic Charge has with Permut8. It's hard to describe Permut8 without using vague terms like "audio destroyer" or "glitch machine", but those don't really do it justice. Sonic Charge's latest release, Pemut8, is a perfect example of this kind of plug-in. Sure, you can get a general idea of the sound of an instrument or plug-in, but with some plug-ins, it's as much about the process as it is the end results. Sometimes a plug-in comes along where mere audio or video demos really aren't enough. Simply load a special type of Permut8 Bank file into the plug-in and it will automatically activate the new signal processing code.Demo: Audio demos on product page.

No complicated steps are necessary to "install" these firmwares.
SONIC CHARGE PERMUT8 CODE
These firmwares are pieces of computer code that you load into Permut8 to extend or replace its signal processing algorithms. Permut8 can be expanded with new functionality through so called "alternative firmwares". Use the player on the right to try some of the programs on top of a simple Microtonic beat. Permut8 is shipped with 11 "program banks" equalling a total of 320 presets covering a wide range of effects from traditional delays and flangers to beat-repeaters, bit-crushers and yet unheard of circuit bent madness. The sound of Permut8 is raw and complex but noisy and warm at the same time The input and output stages offers virtual analog components for saturation, limiting and filtering. The delay is controlled by a programmable processor that allows you to change and modulate the delay time with various "operators".

At its core is a 12-bit digital delay with variable sample rate from 0 to 352 khz. Permut8 is an effect plug-in that embraces the sounds of primitive signal processing hardware.
