3L173 Reducer is a Freeware audio sample reducer for creating lo-fi effects.

It is a small foot print plug-in that effectively reduces audio sample sample rates. It comes with pre and after cutoff filters which you can use to shape the resulting lo-fi'ed sound.

Artists that into Electro/Techno will find this free plug-in quite useful, as it can be used to change the tonality of rhythms and tonal sounds to match the electronic music genre.
