Enter a world of spaced-out, slowed-down sound with HalfTime, the only plugin 100% dedicated to half-speed effects, in use by Armin van Buuren, David Guetta, members of 808 Mafia, The Chemical Brothers, and more.

HalfTime transforms any audio into a dark, downtempo version of itself, giving your tracks a huge mood and atmosphere. Lead synths mutate into heavyweight EDM bass monsters. Plinky piano lines become haunting trap melodies. Percussion thickens, expanding to reveal new rhythmic possibilities.



Just add the plugin for an instant half-speed effect with zero setups. Or go in deep with powerful creative controls. Half Time app works on loops, virtual instruments, or even live audio input, inspiring you in seconds.

The hands-on Power button makes it easy to fit HalfTime VST into your tracks — create a rapid switch or sink in slowly with smooth fades up to 16 bars.

Three-speed Modes give you classic half-speed, tight harmonies and shuffling swing rhythms, and drugged-out quad-time playback. Adjustable Loop length allows multi-bar slow-downs, funky syncopations, and totally new grooves.

Slow only the lows, mids, or highs with the Band split — generate deep bass movement, fatten midrange percussion, or flip your top-end on its head.

Features and Highlights
  • Instant setup: Add the plugin – get an instant half-speed effect with no further setup.
  • Power button: Punch the large central button to activate the effect – automate in your DAW.
  • Fade In/Out: Introduce the effect instantly, or fade in gradually, across up to 16 bars.
  • 3-speed Modes: 2x for the classic "half-speed" effect. 1.5x for perfect fifth harmonies and triplet rhythms. 4x speed for drugged-out quad-time playback.
  • Band Split: Half-speed just the bass, treble, or midrange for trippy effects.
  • Band Solo: Hear just the slowed frequency range – use it to hone the effect, as a filter, or to blend using the Mix control.
  • Dry/Wet Mix: Blend the original and slowed audio.
  • Loop Length: Set the Loop from 1/16 up to 8 bars – keep the original timing, stretch it to half speed, or create catchy new rhythms.
  • Smooth: Preserve transient punch with Percussive mode, and avoid clicks and pops on sustained material with Sustain mode. Or push it to extremes with creative FX and Swell options.
Note: You can only run one instance of the HalfTime demo at once. Settings cannot be saved.

What's new in this version:

- Improved: Saving and loading FXPs via the Main Menu now remembers the last used folder, and the file name is pre-filled with the current preset name
- Fixed: In Logic Pro, the Smooth and Mix knobs could "stick" while being dragged, with the mouse cursor momentarily unresponsive after dragging
