Crossfade Loop Synth is a simple AU instrument - it loads a sample from disk (in AIFF, SD2 or WAV format) and plays it back in the classic sampler way -- i.e., higher notes get shorter, lower notes longer. This new version 1.2 fixes some bugs and adds support for wav. and SDII files. LoopSynth is available for download and is a donationware.| Crossfade Loop Synth | Post a comment ? |

Rayverb by Prosoniq is an inverse retraycing reverb. Raytracing is a technique used in the generation of computer generated imagery (CGI) to create reflective surfaces, so Rayverb allows you to change the position of your sound source within the room, change the material of the walls, apply material from a different ambience or even alter the proportions of the room, all in realtime.
Rayverb will be a VST plugin, but Prosoniq has just posted a standalone version for Mac OS 9 and OS X for download (3.3 Mb).
