Industry : The Summer of Harmony - vielklang Summer Special - macmusicBeginning July 1st 2009 the fully featured vielklang by zplane is now available at a special price of only €199 / $219 (regular price €249 / $299).

vielklang is a plugin instrument for instant audio harmonization, it generates up to four voices from a single-voiced audio input. The progression of each individual voice is controlled by sophisticated harmony progression and voice leading models, resulting in musically meaningful harmonization without any configuration efforts.

With vielklang, you can thus easily generate and prototype natural sounding background vocals and brass sections, modify melodies and single-voice loops in terms of pitch and scale, and experiment with different harmonizations or chords triggered by different MIDI-inputs. It allows you to generate four voices, edit their harmonies and single pitches, and convert the audio to MIDI.

vielklang is available for both Mac OS X and Windows in VST, AU and RTAS formats.

Plug-ins : New Algorithmic Reverb Plug-in by Rob Papen - macmusicRob Papen announces the upcoming release of RP-Verb, a new algorithmic reverb plug-in.

Reverb is a very critical effect when mixing. A bad sounding reverb can break the mix, and your music. Today, in the age of powerful computers, it is possible to run far more complex reverb algorithms than in the past, but it is still down to the algorithms if a reverb sounds great, or not.

In 1981 Rob Papen was recording in the Wisseloord studios. At that time legendary engineer Ronald Prent sent the "electronic" drums, using speakers, into a big recording room, and picked up the sound with microphones to add "room" to the electronic drum sound.

As a young synth player, Rob became fully obsessed with rooms and reverbs.
