Product Description

IF YOUâVE SPENT ANY TIME LATELY flipping thorough the pages of pro-audio magazines, youâve almost certainly noticed the intense focus on microphones. From the proliferation of exotic new mics to the almost cult-like following of certain historical classics, never has the choice been greater. Or the prices higher. A perfect time, in fact, for Antares to introduce our new Microphone Modeler. Using our patented Spectral Shaping Tool (TM) technology, weâve created digital models of a wide variety of microphones, from historical classics to modern exotics, as well as a selection of industry-standard workhorses. Simply tell the Microphone Modeler what microphone you are actually using and what microphone youâd like it to sound like. Itâs as simple as that. Just Like Being There Not only do the models reproduce sonic characteristics that make each microphone unique, but they also give you control of each micâs specific options. Does the mic have a low cut filter? If so, itâs in the model. Wind screen on or off? Close or far placement? Each option results in the same sonic effect that it would have with the actual modeled mic. And for that final touch of perfection, you can even add some tasty tube saturation. With the Microphone Modeler, you can afford to record every track through a model of the specific mic that will produce the ideal sound youâre looking for. ... Read more

Features

• Proprietary DSP-based acoustic modeling allows any reasonable quality microphone to sound like any of a wide variety of high-end studio mics
• Models reproduce the effects of windscreens, low-cut filters, pattern-dependent frequency response and proximity effects
• Create hybrid mics that combine the bass response of one mic with the treble response of another
• Add a model of classic tube saturation distortion
• Use during mixdown to change the mic on an already recorded track

Product Description

INTAKT is a state-of-the-art sampler specifically designed for rhythmic loop playback, manipulation, and mayhem. INTAKTâs convenient one-screen interface features tremendous sound shaping abilities without disrupting the creative flow. Using multiple algorithms, INTAKT automatically syncs to tempo, while an outstanding library of loops from Zero-G and East West provides sample source material for nearly any musical style. Naturally, INTAKT provides a wealth of sound shaping options, including a first-class multimode filter, an envelope follower, two LFOs, effects, and more.INTAKT features three sample playback algorithms to ensure maximum sound quality for a variety of source material. Using an advanced peak-detection algorithm, the Beat Machine divides the imported audio into individual hits. Each hit can have individual settings for pitch, playback direction, pitch envelope, amp envelope, distortion, delay, and more. A MIDI file can be easily exported so that groove, accent, and feel can be manipulated in any host sequencer. The Beat Machine can directly open REX files which already contain marker information. The Time Machine time-stretches or compresses the sound in realtime. By first analyzing the source sound, Time Machine can dynamically adapt itself to a wide variety of source sounds, from sustained vocals to polyphonic percussion. The Sampler mode plays back the source sound like a standard sampler, by linking pitch with time. ... Read more

Features

• Not only does INTAKT sync, stretch, and pitch, but it filters, effects and modulates as well
• A powerful sound-shaping filter, flexible envelopes, syncable LFOs, and distortion, delay, and lo-fi effects inject energy and life into any loop
