![Plug-ins : New IK Bass Amp plugin coming soon - macmusic](http://inc1.440net.net/img/index.php/q/2KOdW7CsYG-0h-fb0JSarUh07Z-ooaVDo56drNnb4NDZgKKaiabv2ODMjVyoc1hznM7bi6aUb21gW6ycsJ2NXLI) IK Multimedia and Ampeg announce the future release of a new Bass Amp modeling plugin, the Ampeg SVX. This plugin will include over 20 Ampeg bass amps, such as SVT Classic, the SVT 5 PRO, the BA500 or the B15R, and of course effects designed for bass : Chorus, Delay, Flanger, Phaser, Octaver, Wah, Auto Filter, Distortion, Graphic EQ and Compressor.
Ampeg SVX is expected to be released within the summer of 2005. Prices and distribution are to be announced.
G-media is on the way to release (price and date TBA, but it's soon) an Ohm force development (you know the crazy blokes) which seems to be just like a MiniM… in AU, RTAS and VST. Need I say more? Well... M-audio is making a bundle called Gforce with impOSCar, M-Tron, Minimonsta and Oddity (price TBA).
![Music Hardware : And Neuronium something completely different... - macmusic](http://inc2.440net.net/img/index.php/q/2KOdW7CsYG-0h-fb0JSarUh07Z-ooaVDo56drNnb4NDZgKKaiabv2ODMjVyoc1hznM7bi6aUb21gW6ycsJyNXLI) If you know about JoMoX (XBase, Airbase, Sunsyn), you know about the brain behind the great designs: Juergen Michaelis. When he's alone at night, he does thing on his own (he's the boss anyway) and what did he finished at last? His Resonator Neuronium.
A unique synth, analogue, based on neural networks (remember Hartman Neuron? it's a digital implementation of the basic ideas leading to something different). Unique because it was a private project, and finally, Juergen is going to make a small series of 10 machines at least to be able to lower the towering price to a more reasonable 2499€. Building will start once 10 firm buys are secured with a provision. This is a very unique thing, it's rare to see new stuff in synthesis, this is one!
