Brainworx releases their new bx_shredspread plug-in.
bx_shredspread is a stereo processor to be used on any stereo guitar subgroup or stereo guitar channels. bx_shredspread' s main purpose is to make sure your stereo ("doubled") guitar signals sound "wide and phatt" - as easy and fast as possible.
Stereo-guitars that have been created by recording several mono tracks (aka "doubled" guitars) will benefit best from the auto-correcting features and the "SHRED-filter", but bx_shredspread will work on conventional stereo guitar sounds and stereo samples as well, of course.
Although mainly created for guitars bx_shredspread may also be used on keyboard groups, organs, choirs, etc. bx_shredspread is a tool to control panning, stereo width and the "tone" of your stereo guitar tracks / groups. It automatically avoids typical phase problems that can occur when using M/S technology via some sophisticated algorithms for stereo width, EQ and pan.
Pricing :
• €119 - regular price after Sept 30.
• €89 - intro price until September 30th!
• €59 - your price if you own ANY bx_plugin

Buzz Audio is pleased to announce the release of the Series 20 QSP, a new 4 channel microphone and instrument preamplifier.
The QSP utilizes the Buzz Audio proprietary BE41 True Class A amplifiers coupled to Lundahl audio output transformers.

Vermona has unveiled the Mono Lancet, a monophonic analogue desktop synthesizer.
Mono Lancet is a compact synthesizer with big sound, easy user interface and charm.
Oscillators
Two analogue oscillators take care of a solid sound foundation. Oscillator one creates triangle-, sawtooth- and square waves and can be set one octave lower than the second oscillator. The latter produces white noise instead of the triangle wave.
