The lethal combination of my busy summer schedule and laziness has resulted in me ignoring a bunch of stuff. Here’s as many as I can think of.
Stillwell has new plugins, one called The Rocket Compressor, and a ‘pitch tracking resonator’ called TinMan. There’s an older one I failed to mention before, Oligarc Filter. PC/Mac VST & AU.
- The Rocket Compressor - Character compressor with super-fast attack and analog mojo. (1176 & Distressor type compressor I reckon.)
- TinMan - Auto-peaking resonant filter with multiple pitch detection and individually triggered attack/decay envelopes. In other words, it listens to your audio and makes matching spooky wooo-eeee-oooo effects.
- The Oligarc Filter - a sophisticated emulation of a classic analog ladder filter, complete with nonlinearity, instability, character, good looks, and danger.
Massey De:Esser - Hate S’s with a fiery passion! Pro Tools 7.0+ Win XP/OS X RTAS only.
Anyone else using Google Chrome? I’ve been using it since day one and I like it.
There are 10 episodes of The Home Recording Show now, keeping that going semi-weekly has me pretty busy.
Kel Audio has a new mic the HM-7U (Expected to ship late September). The new HM-7U delivers gorgeous vocals with glossy highs and thick, chewy, mids thanks to its K47-style capsule and dual-FET amp circuit complete with premium WIMA capacitors and cool phantom power indicator. $299USD within Canada and US including shipping. They have 3 mics really affordable mics in their line now and I’d really love to try them.
Smashing Magazine had a great how-to article on Screencasting.
There’s a really good interview with the owner of Black Lion Audio. It’s really long so get the mp3 here.
I’m sure there’s a dozen more things I’m forgetting but it will have to do for today.
