Steinberg Media Technologies AG introduced GRM Tools Volume 2, the second collection of four unique creative effect processors for PC and Mac VST from the Musical Research Group (GRM) at the Institut National de l'Audiovisuel (Paris). This volume add extremely flexible high quality sound designer tools to the VST system, opening whole new sound worlds and fits perfectly to the successful first volume. Here the plugins in detail: Reson consists of up to 128 resonant high-pass, low-pass or band-reject filters, each of which resonates a single frequency and produces an ensemble of very soft resonances in an input signal. Thus your drum loop for example might take over a melodic component of your song if you wish... Doppler simulates the effect of a sound moving towards or away from you similar to an ambulance passing by. But Doppler does far more: It can also obtain a wide variety of unusual effects by manipulating the 2-Dimensional Potentiometer in unconventional ways. Freeze lets you select a 3-second sample from an audio source and create up to 32 loops within that 3-second sample. You control the number of simultaneous loops, timing of the replay, duration and synchronization of loops, and the speed of replay. The possible sample variations are infinite. Delay features a group of up to 128 variable delays, each controlled in its amplitude and timing. In the stereo version of this plug-in, the delays are assigned alternatively to the left and right channels. Like the first volume, all four processors offer the same interactive, integrated preset handling. It allows settings to be assigned to one button in order to be reselected with a single click. The key lies in the delay parameter which defines the time frame in milliseconds or automatically synchs to tempo* during which the settings from the one preset morph over into the other. All time relevant parameters like delay time or LFO speed can be adjusted in musical units. Complex parameter mixes allowing sensational sound movements are created in no time at all. Possible applications for GRM-Tools: Sound Design, film and television post production, dance, electronic and experimental music productions, jingle and broadcast effect creations For more information, visit their web site at http://www.steinberg.net/.
