The ShaperBox 3 Black Friday upgrade deal is for TimeShaper 3 owners moving up to the ShaperBox 3 Bundle from Cableguys, with 11% off at $79, and the offer ends Dec 1, 2026.
This is an upgrade price. The full ShaperBox 3 Bundle is sold separately for people who don't own TimeShaper 3.
ShaperBox 3 is a multi-effect plugin that puts eleven Cableguys Shaper effects in one interface. The maker calls it a tool for rhythmic inspiration, musical motion and mixing.
The effects are Volume, Time, Drive, Filter, Crush, Noise, Pan, Width, Liquid, Reverb and the new Pitch.
Each one is controlled by a waveform you draw yourself. Sketch curves, angled lines or stepped patterns, and the effect follows that shape.
The Compressor is now a separate tool you can insert anywhere in the Shaper chain. The maker also lists an improved Master Mix algorithm, which it says blends dry to wet without multiband phasing artefacts, and a master Bypass button for click-free switching to the dry signal.
Every Shaper can be split into three bands, and each band gets its own LFO and Envelope Follower. That lets you drive the bass, stutter the mids and reverse the highs in a single instance.
Waveforms sync to beats and bars, from 1/4-note pumping to multi-bar patterns. You can also trigger them with MIDI or audio.
One example from the maker: duck a bassline with VolumeShaper when the kick isn't four-on-the-floor, or fire a bitcrush pattern on a synth each time the snare hits.
The maker also describes half-speed slow-downs, glitches, stutters and scratches from TimeShaper, plus Envelope Followers with an Adaptive Release mode for tighter filtering, distortion and noise that follow the dynamics of beats and basslines.
It is billed as CPU-efficient, with all eleven effects running inside one plugin.
Yes. The ShaperBox 3 Bundle upgrade for TimeShaper 3 owners is 11% off at $79, and the Black Friday offer ends Dec 1, 2026. It is for TimeShaper 3 owners only. The full bundle is sold separately.
Eleven Shaper effects: Volume, Time, Drive, Filter, Crush, Noise, Pan, Width, Liquid, Reverb and Pitch. It also has a preset browser, a separate multiband Compressor tool, and three-band processing for every effect.
Switch on Audio mode and the LFO restarts with each transient. It has three algorithms, Drums, General and Complex, and works with the External Sidechain Input so triggering can follow a kick, snare or any other track.
PitchShaper is a drawable pitch shifter with four algorithms: Complex, Vocals, Drums and Vintage. The maker says you can transpose vocals, shift formants, stamp stepped or bending patterns on instruments, and build risers or glitched drums.
