Audio Damage

A long-running audio software developer making effect and instrument plugins across desktop and iOS. In this spoke it is the maker of shinronin — a 2003 plugin it discontinued in 2009 and then rebuilt and re-released as freeware in 2026. That revive-old-IP-as-a-free-plugin move is one instance of the free-plugin pattern noted in audio-effect-plugin (alongside next-oxx‘s label-seeding freebie): giving software away to keep or grow an audience.
