It's also seemingly backed by Madeon and Knife Party among others. Tbh it's literally just a re-skinned, dumbed down version of the Cableguys Volume Shaper (Cableguys made NR's plugin) and for ~£9 it's a cheap solution. It works nicely, the preset curves work for the tempo/kick combo's I tried and the wet/dry knob is a nice addition. I demo'd Nicky Romero's new plugin the other day - it does what it says and that's pretty much it. I found out the other day though that Daft Punk used Grossbeat on the TRON soundtrack, pretty cool. Grossbeat doesn't include a filter section though, the filter part of LFOTool can make some pretty cool things. So the good ol compressor sidechaining works best imo. LFOTool kind of lacks from my experience that it can't follow double-bass patterns/fast 1/8 note kicks or whatever since it's at a set pattern if you know what I mean. I seen a stream himself and he said he uses LFOTool for sidechaining.so he just has his own plug-in for monetary purposes of course.

LFOTool is pretty old.I guess there's a lot of hype going back into it since Nicky Romero posted his own version today which is a total rip off of LFOTool and x10 shittier.and has no options at all.

LFOTool will process incoming audio as well as generate a MIDI message stream for controlling other instruments. It empowers music producers to create tremolo, auto-pan, trance-gate, side-chain compressor simulation, and dubstep-type wobble effects with minimal effort. LFOTool is an FX utility plug-in for VST and AudioUnit hosts for both Macintosh OS X® and Windows®.
