patchpool Crossroads for FilterverseCrossroads for Filterverse comprises 120 tagged patches which transform the incoming audio signal into ambient, rhythmic, cinematic and experimental textures usable for numerous areas of application. Deeply exploring the multi-effect and synthesis capabilities of this plug-in, many presets use tempo-synced modulators creating groovy and organic rhythmic textures, often the envelope follower is engaged to supply dynamic interaction with the audio signal, audio rate modulation via Filterverse's inbuilt oscillator provides highly interesting and futuristic sounds, physically modeled string arpeggios, vast spaces, pitch-shifted delays, time-warped glitch and stutter effects, granular textures, mellow choruses and smooth filter sweeps add to the versatile complexity of this expansion. All presets make extensive use of the available modulators and have one or more Macros assigned for direct interaction and DAW automation. The patches are programmed 100% wet for the purpose of inserting Filterverse on a bus, that way several audio sources can be processed by the same instance of the plug-in; using a pre-fader send is recommended so that the output and send levels can be set and automated independently. You can view/download the PDF for this expansion with installation instructions, technical notes, the licence agreement and a detailed patchlist including demo links here. Specs: 120 tagged patches programmed 100% wet. Delivery: download. Price: € 34 EUR. Product page. All demos below make use of effect sounds created only with patches from Crossroads, no further post-processing was applied apart from a limiter on the master outputs. Audio demos.

Sonatura Audio MIDIGatorWhen trying to gate an audio signal, it's often easier to use an external trigger, also called a sidechain. MIDIGator allows you to use any MIDI signal to control an audio gate. To make the setup fast and easy, every note on every channel is listened to for the sidechain trigger, along with the sustain pedal on every channel. Upon opening MIDIGator, the gate is completely closed, and will not open until a MIDI note is played, or the sustain pedal is pushed down. Upon sensing either of those events, the gate opens fully. But that's not all! The depth of the gate effect is adjustable, from 100% (normal) to 0%. This allows you to have a portion of the original audio signal coming through all the time, only "pusling" when the gate opens. The Attack and Release controls can also give you a smoother response, easing the audio in and out. And finally, a Dynamics controls rounds out the panel, allowing the gate to respond to the incoming note's velocity to figure out how much to open the gate. (The sustain pedal always acts like a maximum-velocity note.). When multiple notes are held, the velocity of the first note played controls the dynamics, and the gate remains open at that setting until ALL notes are released. A simple plugin, performing a simple task, with some additional control when needed. And for a limited time, it's FREE. Read More
