"That Thing" is a Multi-FX Processor that features 50 samples of old vinyl players, tape machines, old radios, tube gear, atmospheres, ambiance, and much more.
What I love about this plugin is the simplicity, and how easily you could come up with beautiful effects such as a beautiful wide and deep chorus section great to thicken anything from synths, vocals, bass, pads drums, and other sounds.
Another great thing is that the soundscape generator features samples of old vinyl players, tape machines, old radios, tube gear, atmospheres, ambiances, etc, if you are really into it, you can add your own!

Is That Thing Worth Using?
Yes, I believe you would find this multi-fx processor useful, and the good thing is that it does multiple stuff at once, nevertheless, here is who I think would benefit most from That Thing by BeatSkillz:
- If you are interested in Multi-Fx plugins, what is cool about a multi-fx plugin is that it can combine multiple effects, for example, That Thing features Chorus FX, Filters, Bit Crusher, and more
- If you enjoy using a simple Soundscape Generator, or you want to implement yours
That Thing by BeatSkillz is not recommended if:
- You are not interested in a multi-fx plugin, I sometimes prefer using a tool developed for a certain fx, but really, this would depend on the workload, and projects
- If you already have something similar in your toolbox, then there isn't a tangible reason you need to waste any more penny, of course, you might decide to use this as an additional plugin if you love how it sounds.
Pricing
As of the time of writing this review, That Thing by BeatSkillz is reasonably priced at $19.00.
