Audio Damage has announced the release of Liquid, an analog-style through-zero flanger. Unlike traditional flangers, which are just short delays with a bit of feedback, Liquid models the original flanging method, where two tape machines were used to create artificial double-tracking effects. Perfect for "stereo-izing" monophonic signals like voice and vintage analog synths, Liquid also provides more mind-bending flanging at higher feedback settings.

Features :

- True through-zero flanging.
- Perfect for "stereo-izing" analog synths, electric pianos, and other mono sources.
- Capable of extreme vintage-style flanging effects.
- Full MIDI learn on every parameter for hardware control (VST version only).

Liquid is now available for purchase in the Audio Damage store priced at $29.00 for Mac OS X Audio Units and VST, and Windows VST.

Puremagnetik has just released Punchpak, a collection of sounds created from the 8 bit synthesizer chip on the classic Nintendo® (NES) gaming console. All sounds have been mapped out and programmed into the Ableton Live 6, EXS24 and Kontakt 2 environments.
