„The Transient Former

The idea behind the Transient Former TDESIGN is to give the user direct control over the attack and sustain characteristics of natural sounds, and though this sounds less than revolutionary, you only have to play with the unit for a few minutes to realise that the Transient Former is a very powerful creative tool. For example, you can take a recording of an unremarkable drum kit and dial in some really hard-hitting attack or take a very percussive sound and soften the attack. You can also use the sustain control to work on the decay portion of sounds, and with drums you can tighten up the sound to give a fast, dry decay or you can make them ring as though you’d taken the dampers off the kit. It’s just like having remote control over the amount of damping tape stuck to the drum heads, but after the recording. Other than a compressor this process is independent of level and the effect is the same regardless of whether the input signal is loud or soft.
Unique to TDESIGN is the ability to shape the transient not only amplitude wise but also with a dynamically controlled 24 dB lowpass filter with resonance control. This gives you the opportunity to change the sound in a way which normally is only possible if you recreate it with a synthesizer !
The transient design process works best on drums and other material which exhibits strong rhythmical components. But it’s really worth to try it with other input sources…

Tempo Delay

„Tempo Delay is a multi-feature stereo delay AAX, AudioUnit and VST plugin for professional sound and music production applications. Tempo Delay is based on tempo, incorporating filter and tremolo sections with separate controls for each stereo channel. Instead of a single “delay length” control this plug-in features separate “delay”, “repetition period” and “delay panning” controls which allow you to create an evenly sounding “ping-pong” stereo echoes.

TERA

„Erforschen Sie mit VirSyn TERA neue Klangsphären, über die reine Nachahmung legendärer Synthesizer hinaus, durch Verbindung klassisch-analoger und digitaler Syntheseformen mit neuen physikalischen Modellen. Innovative Bedienelemente navigieren durch 8-dimensionale Klangräume und lassen Sie die Grenzen traditionellen Klangmorphings überschreiten. Ausgefeilte Algorithmen und eine besonders ressourcenschonende Modularchitektur sorgen für eine vergleichsweise hohe Ausbeute an Stimmen. Kabellose Modulverdrahtungen in Verbindung mit der intelligenten Modulationsmatrix vereinfachen die Entwicklung eigener Synthesizer. Bis zu 16 dieser Modularsynthesizer können gleichzeitig eingesetzt werden. Auf die freie Gestaltung der Oberfläche wurde deshalb bewußt verzichtet, um den Überblick bei der Bedienung dieses multimodularen Systems zu behalten. Zur klanglichen Abrundung kann jeder dieser Modularsynthesizer mit Distortion, Echo/Delay und Modulationseffekten versehen werden. Durch seinen druckvollen Sound verleiht VirSyn TERA jeder Produktion ihren individuellen Schliff und zeigt in der Verbindung mit externen Sequenzern  hervorragendes Timingverhalten. Ebenso kann VirSyn TERA als Stand-Alone Werkzeug zur unkomplizierten Realisierung kompletter Produktionen verwendet werden. Lassen Sie sich inspirieren von dem innovativen 64 Step-Sequenzer, der das Konzept bewährter klassisch-analogen Step- Sequencer um variable Rhythmusstrukturen und Akkordsequenzen erweitert. Oder nutzen sie dessen Realtime Transposition von Sequenzen durch auf der Tastatur gehaltene Akkorde, die den Sequenzer zum flexibel programmierbaren Arpeggiator machen. Im Songmodus werden die einzelnen Sequenzen arrangiert. Die Zusammenführung der Klänge und deren Veredelung durch einen Raumsimulator und einen globalen Modulationseffekt erfolgt in der letzten Produktionsphase im integrierten Mischpult.“

Kurzmitteilung
Tesla

„Back in 1856, a genius was born in Croatia. He was called Nikola Tesla. ‚Genius‘ is a word too often bandied about these days but Tesla certainly was one and many of his maverick inventions, designs and patents influence our lives today.

He pioneered AC motors/generators, was dabbling with radio, radio control and X-ray, had run-ins with Thomas Edison who couldn’t see Tesla’s unique vision, put forward ideas and patents for the wireless transmission of electrical power and much, much more. A bit of a stubborn and awkward bugger by all accounts but a true visionary. whose work, as I say, still has ramifications in our modern world, our AC electrical power we all take for granted being just one of them.

But another of his inventions/patents was his ‚Tesla Coils‘ in 1891.

„Tubes & Wires is a huge, rusting hulk of a synthesiser, smelling of Bakelite and hot valves, glowing and humming and breathing.

The heart of this synth lies in hundreds of careful hand-tuned samples of three classic vintage signal generators. We chose these bits of ageing scientific lab equipment specifically for their character and crusty goodness: there isn’t a clean trace among them. They’ve been used, and abused, and left in the dusty sheds of men with beards, until we rescued them and made them sing for us. Tubes & Wires weiterlesen →
