Sampletank come back in its 2.0 version, and IK Multimedia has added a few but important features:
- STRETCH, an engine that pitch shift, stretch, works on timbre and harmonics. this way, as the resampling engine used before is still there you can plays the samples with very different timbres as both methods are treating harmonics in STRETCH much more elegantly.
Add to this it permit a realistic glide with portamento that is natural.
- a loop function using the STRECH engine that in one click synchronize, pitch shift, strech etc. the loops loaded in Sampletank and you can play them without even thinking about the math crunching behind. Ear the STRETCH!

I'd like to introduce myself to everyone here on MacMusic.org as the new English Editor-in-Chief. Since its founding as the first major site to be devoted to Mac musicians, MacMusic has grown to be the largest and most comprehensive resource on the web for music, and, just as importantly, the only completely bilingual site. We think it can get even better, and what better time to expand the site than a time when the Mac is reaching a new era for digital music, as Apple finally embraces us as one of its core markets. You may have read the site I started in June, musiconmac.com. I'm happy now to take some of the plans forged on that site to this one, and welcome my readers from musiconmac here. Over the coming months, I'll be posting more news, more reviews, more interviews, and more tutoria ...| read more | Post a comment ? |
