Aixcoustic Creations - Electri-Q 1.8.1 Aixcoustic Creations - Electri-Q 1.8.1
03:36 PM 
'Electri-Q 1.8.1' is a simple, intuitive, but powerful minimum phase EQ, which makes it very easy to adjust the magnitude of any audio material. Due to its flexibility, it can be used on every track or even as a mastering equalizer.The plugin offers two different algorithms. The algorithm 'Analog' was modelled on a transistor based circuit of a real analog EQ. On the other hand 'Digital' is a pure and neutral digital EQ without any coloration. 'Electri-Q 1.8.1' has up to 64 bands and offers several filter types.It comes as native Windows VST Plugin or as WinAmp pluginFeatures: * intuitive GUI * up to 64 bands * two basic algorithms ('Digital' and 'Analog') * additional algorithms ('Scream', 'Linear Phase' and 'Maximum Phase') * 64-bit Assembler optimized * Economy Mode for less CPU Usage * all basic filter types (Peak, HighShelf, LowShelf, Highpass, Lowpass, Bandpass, Notch) * 80+ special filters * Mono/Stereo (linked) * Draw Filter Curve Estimation * exact edit of frequency, gain, bandwidth * neatless Add/Delete of a band * Psychoacoustical Spectrum Analyser * customisable Default * A|B compare * import/export posihfopit presets * 72 PresetsNEW Features: * New linear phase IIR mode (linear phase filter with low CPU usage) * Chebyshev LP filter up to -72dB/Oct * several bugfixes * color theme support added * performance of several filters improved * undo/redo refined * bypass added ([ALT] + click on mode) * volume slider added for Winamp version * installer includes optional WinAmp version as well * maximum phase mode *WORLD INNOVATION* -The "Maximum Phase" mode is like the "Linear Phase" mode, but instead of having a linear phase, it has maximum phase. With this, the whole filter is preringing only. So a techno bass might turn from "boom" into a "whoop". If you now take into acount, that loudspeakers (especially sub-woofers) are minimum-phase, these effects will compensate each other. At least in theory...- 'Electri-Q' 1.8.1 will be shipped with more than 50 presets. These will cover all instruments and genres. Additional you will receive 3 separate licences to use Electri-Q on up to 3 different computers. The downloadable demo version in combination with a valid "Electri-Q response key" is a fully functional version of the software.The price remains at 99.90?

What's new: Features - ProTools/PC: Parameter Automation. - ProTools/PC: Complete page table support for all supported control surfaces. Bugfixes - ProTools: problem noises on instantiation fixed. - CPU spikes on some programs removed. - Tracktion 3: workaround for ?white window? GUI problem. REFLECT is an algorithmic reverberation plugin which combines the flexibility of vintage algorithmic reverbs with the sonic quality of convolution based reverbs.The creation of high quality reverb needs a realistic simulation of the important early reflections together with a smooth and colorless reverberation tail.The early reflections are the most important clue for the human ear to get a feeling about the dimension and character of a room. Most algorithmic reverbs offer a number of different algorithms to simulate different natural rooms like chamber, halls or artificial ones like plates. REFLECT uses impulse responses from real acoustic spaces and classical reverb algorithms to emulate their acoustical properties.From now till September 30th, 2007 you can buy REFLECT for only EURO 99.- instead of EURO 169.-Read more.

Oli Larkin - Endless Series Version 2 Oli Larkin - Endless Series Version 2
03:36 PM 
The Endless Series is a set of plugins based on the auditory illusion known as "Circular Pitch" or "The Shepard tone". The plugins have been completely redesigned and are now available on Mac as well as PC in VST, RTAS and AU formats. The Endless Series includes Endless Tone, Endless Phaser, Endless Flanger and now Endless Shifter which is a circular pitch-pitch shifter.The Endless Series are four effect plugins based on an auditory illusion known as ?Circular Pitch? or more commonly the ?Shepard Tone/Scale? after Roger N. Shepard who discovered it in the 1960s. Shepard showed that using basic additive synthesis it?s possible to create the illusion of a continuously rising or descending chromatic scale. The term circular pitch was used because, although the scale sounds as if it is moving in one direction, in fact, after twelve steps it returns to where it started.Endless Tone can be used to synthesize classic Shepard/Risset tones. It can also be used as a ring modulator either using an internal sine wave or the audio input for the carrier signal. Endless Flanger is a circular pitch (barber-pole) flanger - instead of flanging up and down the frequency spectrum, it appears to continuously flange in one direction. Endless Phaser works in the same way but rather than using delay lines, it uses filters to produce its effect. Endless Shifter provides a further variation by using pitch shifting to impose the illusion of circular pitch on the source material.Features: * Specify glissando or chromatic (stepped) mode * Change the rate and direction of the tone/effect * Adjust the base-pitch of the tone/effect * Mix between two different amplitude envelopes * Spread the partials across the stereo image * Presets and manual includedFormats:Windows VST, RTAS. Mac VST, AU, RTAS * Windows VST and RTAS * Mac VST, AU and RTAS UBSystem Requirements:PC: * Windows XP or Vista * 1Ghz P3 or equivalent cpu (2Ghz P4 or better recommended) * Pluggo Runtime 3.61 or higher * VST/RTAS Host such as Cubase SX, Sonar, Audiomulch or ProToolsMac: * PPC or Intel cpu (Intel recommended) * 1Ghz cpu (2Ghz or better recommended) * OSX 10.4 or higher * Pluggo Runtime 3.61 or higher * VST/AU/RTAS Host such as Live, Logic, DP or ProTools.

Cycling ?74 Max/MSP/Jitter 5 Cycling ?74 Max/MSP/Jitter 5
03:36 PM 
A major new upgrade to Max/MSP/Jitter is coming soon.Max 5 is based on being easier to use, easier to learn, and easier to deal with. In order to work toward those goals, we've put a lot of effort into creating a more modern graphical user interface for interactive real-time graphical programmers. I should point out that a programming environment is not the first thing that people have in mind when they think about graphical user interfaces.Easier to Use 1. Multiple undo is available. 2. Objects interact with time in ways that are more meaningful than milliseconds. 3. The patcher is variable resolution and can be zoomed in and out. 4. A simplified and more consistent interface, identical on Mac and Windows. 5. A new object palette (with nice big resizable icons!) works as a visual catalog.Easier to Learn 1. The documentation is completely integrated into the user interface. 2. A searchable database of objects, media, examples, and documentation integrates all of the provided material. 3. Introductory tutorials have been completely rewritten, and include integrated patches. 4. New interactive debugging tools make figuring out what your patch is doing (almost) fun. 5. Third-party object developers can now use all of our documentation tools for their products.Easier to Deal With 1. The interface can easily be localized and customized. 2. A new file format is more readable, extensible and reliable. 3. Support for Unicode text and filenames. 4. A new interface layer -- "Presentation Mode" ? provides a new way to build user interfaces without cluttering your patch. 5. The installation and authorization experience is vastly improved.Behind these ease-of-use goals you will find a lot of new software technology that we've been working on for over two years. I won't bore you with the details, but pretty much every piece of Max (except the part that runs your patch) has been modernized. We've dropped the MDI interface on Windows in favor of a more elegant SDI model. The graphics are composited (which means things can be translucent), and the programs are remarkably identical between platforms. And because we needed it for our documentation, we'll let you drop a web browser into your patcher whenever you need one.

KarmaFX - KarmaFX Synth Modular v1.0 RC2 (Pc/Donationware) KarmaFX - KarmaFX Synth Modular v1.0 RC2 (Pc/Donationware)
03:36 PM 
KarmaFX Synth Modular 1.0 [Release Candidate 2] changes. * Amplifier will now skip streams from input modules if amplification is 0 for more than half a second. This can reduce CPU load considerably, especially with polyphonic patches. This also means that patches will consume 0% CPU when not playing and the GUI is closed. * Tweaked synth engine performance and reduced vst dll sizes for faster loading. * GUI: Double clicking or Shift-clicking on a wire arrow now allows you to insert a module on this wire (Thanks Matthew). * GUI: Additive and Pad magnitude editor is now log scaled for easier editing. * GUI: Renamed all "Component" references to "Module" for consistency with the manual. * GUI: Optimized/rewrote all waveform and curve drawing routines. * GUI: Added antialised drawing support. The level of antialising is determined by the skin. * GUI: Added even better support for custom skins. Resource files placed in a subfolder inside the Skins folder will now be detected as a "raw" skin. * GUI: When using raw skins, hitting Ctrl-R will now reload the chosen skin. * GUI: Made minor edits to the default skin (colors and gfx). * Bugfix: Pos in Sampler was disabled by accident in v0.99. Fixed. * Bugfix: Stereo parameter in Pad module was bogus on first output sample. Fixed. * Bugfix: Sampler's sustain was broken when in stereo or when multiple keys were held in non-polyphonic mode. Fixed. * Bugfix: Clearing samples in Sampler while playing a polyphonic patch could crash the synth. Fixed. * Bugfix: Nasty interpolation bug in delay code caused some modules to overflow. Fixed. * Bugfix: Multiple connections to a bypassed module could return garbage. Fixed. * Bugfix: Midi control messages like Pitchbend etc. could confuse MidiTrig module. Fixed. * Bugfix: Portamento was broken in polyphonic mode. Fixed. * Bugfix: Fixed memory leak when replacing modules. * Bugfix: Fixed possible crash and memory leak when out of memory while loading samples. [new in RC2] * Bugfix: Arp could sometimes go out of sync in Pattern module. Fixed. [new in RC2] * Created a few new patches. Release Candidate expires November, 2007.

Extreme belongs to our range of hybrid synthesizers. Have you been looking for a synth which sounds different? Then look no more. Extreme supplies a range of sounds which are everything else than common.Extreme includes 256 presets, but it uses our soundpack technology so you may add soundpacks. Three optional soundacks are available for Extreme giving you a total of 1024 presets to explore.We have published a number of MP3 files below, which demo the synth.It's available as a VST plugin on Windows. An Audio Unit for Mac OS X is coming soon. Join our newsletter and then you'll be notified when the Mac OS X version has been released. Or if you represent a company, for example a magazine, then you may join our press release list to get a message when the version for Mac OS X has been released.About ExtremeExtreme uses samples/waveforms as the oscillator source. In addition, there's an ensemble section which can multiply the oscillator source into 6 different oscillators, which gives Extreme a very thick and punchy sound.The waveforms/samples can be categorized as distorted, big, punchy, noisy and wicked, appealing to musicians who need a unique tool which sounds different compared with the average software synthesizers on the market.Extreme features one resonant lowpass filter per voice. And there's a traditional amplitude envelope as well. And pitch modulation (LFO). There's a stereo delay (one for the left and one for the right stereo channel). In addition, Extreme includes an ensemble unit which multiplies the oscillator into six oscillators which can be detuned (the amount control) and mixed with the original voice.EffectsThe effect section in Extreme is quite comprehensive. We have included a resonator, a flanger, reverb, a pitch shifter, amplitude modulator and even a sub oscillator. And there are several filter banks and bandpass filters.Now as if this isn't enough, these can be used in series or layered to create thick effects. Alright, you say, but hold on. There's more. These effects can be cross faded as well. Yes, there are effect modes which let you, say, crossfade between the resonator and a flanging effect. Or crossfade between the flanger and a filter bank.VoicesYou may configure Extreme so it gives you any number of voices your computer can handle (depending on how fast it is). Or you can set a fixed limit if you don't want to allocate more than a certain number of voices for Extreme.MIDI ControllersThe plugin has a learn mode for MIDI controllers. Just click on the learn button, turn a particular software knob, which you want to control, and then turn a hardware knob on your controller. Then the plugin has learnt that this hardware knob will control this software knob. Can't be easier. You can also use the learn function to draw controller waveforms in your MIDI sequencer.Selecting PatchesThere's a drop down menu which you use to select patches. Instead of selecting from the drop down menu you may also hit the increment or decrement buttons to step one preset forward or backward.OtherThere's a 4th order lowpass filter with resonance, which can be controlled by an envelope. In addition, MIDI velocity may control the filter cutoff frequency. If you don't like volume velocity then you may reduce the volume velocity or turn it off completely. The plugin includes an LFO for pitch modulation and another LFO for effect modulation. The effect LFO has many shapes to choose from, for example triangle, saw and stepped waveforms. A manual (PDF) is included.The plugin is a 14 MB download and each soundpack is approximately 16 MB. You need approximately 355 MB free hard disk space to install the plugin and all soundpacks (because they expand/unzip when they are installed).You may download a demo here, but the demo contains only 4 presets and 4 samples. And it has a 3 minute limitation. All these restrictions are of course removed when you buy and download the full version.Price: $139 Switch To Better Search: Readle - Quality Controlled Search Engine | Clipoid - the world's largest video search | Gadget Search - Search for gadgets | Readle Social!

Cycling '74 - Announcing Max/MSP Version 5 Cycling '74 - Announcing Max/MSP Version 5
09:40 AM 
AES • New York, NY • October 5, 2007--Cycling '74 today announced Version 5.0 of its Max/MSP media development tools. This version represents a new era of Max programming, with a completely redesigned multi-processing kernel and a streamlined development environment built on a platform-independent foundation. With a new patcher interface, searchable database of objects and examples, integrated documentation and new tutorials, the new Max user will find a smoother learning curve while experienced users will see improved productivity. CEO David Zicarelli remarked: "In almost twenty years of working on this software, there's never been anything close to the transformation we're undertaking. This is Max for the next twenty years." Demo movies showing off the new interface have been posted on the cycling74.com web site today, and the company plans a regular series of articles and videos covering the new features over the next few months. In addition to a modern infrastructure designed to support today's multi-core processors and tomorrow's operating systems, Max 5 features a stylish new UI intended to aid in the expression of complex ideas in a fluid manner. As a result, Max's pioneering concept of interactive graphical programming has been pushed forward in numerous ways large and small. A prime example is presentation mode, which de-couples programming logic from user interface construction, allowing clearer patches as well as richer user interfaces. You can also read this post about Max/MSP/Jitter 5.   "Max version 5 will be available first quarter 2008 and, if used with its digital audio and video extensions, will require updated versions of MSP and Jitter. An upgrade price for Max 5 is not being announced at this time. However, customers who purchase the current version of Max/MSP or Max/MSP/Jitter after October 1, 2007 will be eligible for a free upgrade to Max 5 when it becomes available next year."

The main purpose of this program is to provide a real time analysis of an input signal and then react with, and modify plug-in parameters to produce the sound.Features Build modular sound processing: creates patch with "modules" and connect them by virtual wires very simply. Analyse input or generated sound, for example pitch, peaks or dynamics to create adaptive effects, modify any parameter in real time. Use the built-in virtual mixing table to mix the sound produced by different patchs on each tracks (up to 16). Organize patchs, sounds, and effects on a timeline with the sequencer mode. Create complex automations curves. Very powerful Modular Mixing concept Unlimited number of internal audio buses. SMPTE synchronization with external sequencers. MIDI Time Code and MIDI Machine Control support. Create huge, creative or stupid audio routing within the mixing table. For example, routing, a patch output to another patch input, or create a virtual master effect send and return, etc. Manage 20 external audio sources (10 stereo) and apply different effects to any of them. Create flexible Surround (up to 16 channels) projects: all audio tracks are 7.1, 8.0 or 16.0. The output sound can routed to any of the 20 available outputs, depending on your sound card. Create inserts patchs on any input / output channels. For example a master limiter or a master reverb. Complete VST® processing: You can use any VST instruments or effect in patchs and modify any VST Parameter in real time. Create a front-end simple interface.

New in Version 1.1 - 50+ new programs modeled after hi-end hardware reverbs.- ProTools/Mac: Parameter Automation.- ProTools/Mac: Complete page table support for all supported control surfaces. REFLECT is an algorithmic reverberation plugin which combines the flexibility of vintage algorithmic reverbs with the sonic quality of convolution based reverbs.The creation of high quality reverb needs a realistic simulation of the important early reflections together with a smooth and colorless reverberation tail.The early reflections are the most important clue for the human ear to get a feeling about the dimension and character of a room. Most algorithmic reverbs offer a number of different algorithms to simulate different natural rooms like chamber, halls or artificial ones like plates.

Outsim - SynthMaker to v1.0.8 Outsim - SynthMaker to v1.0.8
08:52 AM 
Release 1.0.8You can now Send MIDI and SYSEX to external devices from within your VST plugins. In this release we have 4 new components which allow you to select MIDI devices from within an exported plugin and send data to or receive data from them.MIDI In Devices and MIDI Out Devices give you lists of available devices on the host machine. You can then use this in your GUI as a drop list or set of options for users to select from. The chosen device can then be activated using the MIDI In Select and MIDI Out Select components. To make things easy there are two new modules in the MIDI group that will do all this for you (MIDI In Select and MIDI Out Select).We also have some new components for handling double precision floating point numbers. These have been introduced primarily to solve a problem with the Wave Player where the sample position becomes inaccurate under certain conditions (usually with longer samples and non-integer steps) causing pitch variations as you play.In addition we have many important fixes and improvements.Additions and Fixes? Send MIDI and SYSEX to external devices from within your VST plugins? New components for handling double precision stream data? Wave Player module now uses high precision counter to fix pitch variations when playing long samples? Fixed Redraw Limiter which was sending too many triggers? Fixed VST Editor Open component which was causing strange results when using multiple instances of a plugin? The Note to Int component has been fixed and now gives the correct result? Stuttering when changing presets has been significantly improved now? Program change messages were not being received via MIDI? The Bus Create component was sending triggers through the bus when changing names? Updated the step LFO module to correct tempo dependency in the smooth display? Improved full screen mode for exes. You can now move the window and maximise on the monitor you want? Removed superfluous counters from the Preset Manager? Updated the Example Synth to use new de-zippers and Preset Manager? Updated the de-zipper module to correct a problem that was preventing correct rendering of automation? Fixed a bug in the preset changing mechanism that was causing crashes in some hosts, Live in particular? In the Horizontal Slider properties the MIDI cc and Steps check boxes were interchanged? Corrected a problem in the Advanced Counter that was affecting use of negative boundaries? Updated the ADSR module to correct a problem when using in a Mono section? Updated the Moog Filter module with a sensible multiplier for cutoff modulationUpdated Modules? Wave Player? Step LFO? De-zipper? Preset Manager? ADSR? Horizontal Slider? Moog FilterNew Modules?
