Or use it in live performance to get the sound of mics you'd never consider using on stage. You can even use it during mixdown to effectively change the mic on an already recorded track.Source Mic and Modeled Mic - Simply select the mic you're using (or used during your original recording) and the mic you want it to sound like. Proximity - Proximity Effect is a bass boost that results from placing a directional mic in close proximity to a signal source (e.g., a singer's lips). With Mic Mod EFX's Proximity controls, you can actually create the effects of different mic distances based on the specific physical properties of each individual modeled mic.Low Cut Filter - If your source mic has a low cut filter, enter its setting in the Source Mic Low Cut menu. If your selected modeled mic has a low cut filter, you can model the effects of any of its settings with the Modeled Mic Low Cut menu.Pickup Pattern - If your source mic has variable pickup patterns, enter the selected pattern in the Source Mic Pattern menu. If your selected modeled mic has variable pickup patterns, you can experiment with the effects of any of its patterns with the Modeled Mic Pattern menu.Tube Saturation - Based on the same technology as Antares' famed WARM Tube Saturation Generator, the Tube Saturation control lets you give your track the warmth of a high-quality tube pre-amp.SPECIFICATIONS Mic Mod EFX is available for: Macintosh (Universal Binaries) * RTAS * VST * Audio Units PC * RTAS * VST

You need a portable USB MIDI controller but also want a keyboard that provides a musical playing experience? You have some MIDI modules you want to connect as well but don’t want the footprint of a large keyboard? You have modular and analog gear you want to control via CV/GATEs? You want a step sequencer with polyphonic capability that can sync to your favorite modern and vintage gear? If only a single piece of gear could do all of this…   It’s the touch... The KeyStep controller does all this and more. Arturia started by designing our own “slim key” keyboard action, balancing the best features of compact mini-keys with the musicality of full-sized keys into this new keybed. The size, velocity and aftertouch of this new design provide the freedom of portability without sacrificing playability. Arturia also designed a new polyphonic step-sequencer with 8 programmable memories that you can recall at the turn of knob. You can choose gate times and swing settings instantly to change the feel of your sequenced performance on the fly. Arturia also included the ability to record, overdub, and transpose your sequences in real time and still play the keyboard live. Add a flexible and fun arpeggiator mode and chord play mode and you are set for hours of musical adventures.   ...and the possibilities These features alone would make KeyStep the best portable keyboard controller on the market. But we take it further by giving you a wealth of connectivity options: USB MIDI (of course), standard MIDI in and out (check), clock sync and DIN sync jacks (yes!), and CV/GATE outputs, plus a separate, assignable modulation CV output that can be used with the mod wheel, velocity or aftertouch. To say KeyStep is an amazing little controller does not say enough. Keystep is the perfect performance controller in a compact package.   Adapts to your setup! KeyStep was imagined and designed to become the modern musician’s trump-card. Whatever your setup, KeyStep will merge into it to overdrive your workflow and effectiveness. With KeyStep and its range of connections you can control any digital or analog synthesizer from the past, today and even tomorrow. Sequence them all!

The original convolution reverb Altiverb is a plug-in that makes your audio sound as if it was played back somewhere else, adding the acoustics of existing spaces to your own recordings or to your live audio. All spaces in Altiverb were recorded in the real world, from Sydney Opera House to a Scottish underground oil tank the size of a cathedral. Features Apart from the extensive library of impulse responses you get with this plug-in, Altiverb features some clever controls for shaping the sound of this convolution reverb. Decay This essential reverb parameter is very prominent in Altiverb 8. You can apply an exponential decay on any impulse response to reduce the reverb time, without changing the character of the room. Brightness Real spaces often contain less high frequency content than algorithmic (synthetic) reverbs. Sometimes you need that extra sparkling brightness in a reverb tail that is just hard to obtain from the real world. Damping Control the reverb length of three separate and adjustable frequency bands. Shortening is damping, lengthening is enhancing. You can see the effect of damping in the waterfall graph of the impulse response. Stage positions Altiverb can have mono or stereo inputs. When making impulse responses, we used either one speaker position in the center of the stage for mono input, or two speaker positions for stereo input. So there is a direct relation between the amount of inputs and the speakers used. Using the positioner tab, available only in mono and stereo input Altiverbs, you can switch on the speaker, in which case you can hear where it stands. You can also, right there, move the speaker around. Equalizer Altiverb features a four band equalizer. The bass and treble bands are Baxandall EQs, designed to not shift phase more than 180 degrees, which effectively means that combing or cancellation effects are unlikely when the EQ’d signal is mixed with the dry signal. The equalizer works on the wet signal only. Size Makes the selected room (impulse response) smaller or larger. This transposes room modes and resonances, tightens or spreads early reflections, and shortens or lengthens the reverb tail. Pre-delay Delays the onset of the reverb. If the note symbol is clicked, the timing of the delay is locked to the tempo of the host application so you can select an eighth-note as the delay time. Attack Fades-in the start of the impulse response, resulting in a more lush, distant reverb sound. Reverse The entire impulse response is reversed in time for backward reverb effects. Modulation This effect does not emulate anything that happens in reality, it emulates something that happens in artificial reverb algorithms. Gated Reverb Allows you to abruptly cut-off a reverb after a set amount of time. The gate time can also be locked to the tempo of the host application. Snapshots Snapshots are presets that are private to an instance of Altiverb. WHAT IS NEW IN ALTIVERB 8 Native Apple silicon M1 / M2 & Intel macs are fully supported. New scalable user interface (except AU version) Cloud size Automatic input-pan following reverb, locate each reverb around the panning of the source, even when multiple sources move in a single instance. Smooth and clickless IR switches, reverb adjustments and stage position changes all practically seemless without any clicks. Improved IR searching The newly designed browser offers more and quicker ways to find the right IR. New IR Tool This tool enables you to create your own IRs, with output support up to 9.1.6 channels. Computer activation The Altiverb license can be activated on a computer or on a USB iLok key. The iLok USB key is NO LONGER required. VST3 Plug-In To ensure compatibility with worldclass VST host applications (DAWs) like Ableton Live, Cubase, Nuendo and Digital Performer Altiverb 8 features a VST3 plug-in. Center Almost all IRs have been supplied with a real center channel for LCR or 5.0 7.0 without center bleed. New Spaces many new spaces are included with Altiverb 8, like the Zuidervermaning from the intro video, a dance club, some industrial spaces, a Tesla, camper vans , atmos plates and springs reverbs, and a selection of buckets and bins including a porta toilet. All including atmos. improved loading speed. Your sessions with many Altiverbs will load quicker than ever. WHAT IS NOT NEW IN 8 Wait? What?This is what Altiverb 8 continues to deliver, just like Altiverb 7 (and earlier) has been delivering for two decades: Backward compatibility, Altiverb 8 opens in sessions/projects that were made with Altiverb since 2006 and the session/project will sound the same. All IRs ever released for Altiverb. New IRs will be added regularly, for free. Fixes and support without yearly fees. The option to sell and transfer your license. Countless ways of manipulating the reverb sound with controls like reverb time, attack, brightness, pre delay, EQ, damping.. Revolutionary stage positioning control for placing single members of a group, ensemble or even a complete orchestra on their own individual spot on stage, in any room/concert hall

Cloud Size and Pan Tracking Reverb - from LCR up to 9.1.6 input Altiverbs Altiverb XL supports more than two inputs. With more then two inputs there is no longer a direct relation between an input and a speaker that was used when making the impulse response. Therefore the Positioner tab is unavailable. Instead there is a new control: cloud size. With cloud size turned down, the reverb no longer outputs to all output channels, it starts clustering around the input pan position of your sounds. Even when the input sound moves, the reverb cloud travels along with it. Attack Fades-in the start of the impulse response, resulting in a more lush, distant reverb sound. Reverse The entire impulse response is reversed in time for backward reverb effects. Modulation This effect does not emulate anything that happens in reality, it emulates something that happens in artificial reverb algorithms. Gated Reverb Allows you to abruptly cut-off a reverb after a set amount of time. The gate time can also be locked to the tempo of the host application. Mixer Everything is recorded with enough microphones to provide Atmos reverb (up to nine eye level speakers plus six over head channels).
