Jul 27 - 01:53 PM | Plug-ins > Pro Audio DSP |
Pro Audio DSP has updated its DSM - Dynamic Spectrum Mapper plug-in to version 1.3.
The Dynamic Spectrum Mapper (DSM) provides multi-dimensional control over both the spectral response and dynamic characteristics of audio programme, bringing a whole new dimension of facility and artistic ability to the sound engineer.
Novel processing and programme capture algorithms provide the ability to achieve exemplary results in common tasks such as :
• programme compression
• loudness enhancement
• de-essing and vocal character processing
Furthermore, the ability to capture, modify and re-apply the spectral characteristics of programme is a powerful creative tool in all stages of the production cycle, from recording and mixing to mastering stages :

Jul 27 - 11:22 AM | Plug-ins > IZotope |
IZotope is pleased to announce the release of Radius for Logic and Apple Soundtrack Pro, a new version of their time-stretching and pitch-shifting algorithm previously built for Apple's Logic Pro. This new version has been updated with support for Logic 9 as well as Soundtrack Pro 3.
iZotope Radius allows for independent control over timing and pitch of any audio material while preserving the character and acoustic space of the original recording. Using an advanced hybrid method, it is able to preserve transients and sustained material simultaneously, making it extremely useful for modifying fully mixed performances as well as individual instruments, voices, or other audio sources. This new version of Radius adds a new pitch coherence control that enables enhanced control over the sound ...

Best Service announces that Titan is now shipping.
Titan offers 5,500 multi-samples of the best sounds from 200 classic Analog Synthesizers and Modular Systems, including the biggest and most famous Digital Synths and Workstations of the 80s and 90s, and from the newest virtual instruments and current synths, all in one massive plug-in. That means 40 years of synth history and sound variety. Best Service put great emphasis on preserving the unique sound character of each instrument - that's why many of the instruments were partially sampled with their original effects and filters, which can be hard to reproduce in the virtual domain. All instruments were sampled and looped perfectly and inserted into the new Best Service ENGINE. ENGINE was developed by Best Service in cooperation with Yellow Tools. It is based on Yellow Tools' high-end sampler Independence Pro and offers all performance features of a contemporary sample engine.
Titan is available for Windows and Mac OS X in VST, AU and RTAS plug-in formats. MSRP is €249 (incl. VAT).
