AZ Audio releases Ultra Trigger FX and updates ADopplerEn to v1.1
7th January 2008
AZ Audio has announced the release of Ultra Trigger FX (v1.1) and updated ADopplerEn to v1.1.
Ultra Trigger FX (UTFX) is a VST effect plugin specially designed for real-time/live audio work - the main idea behind this multi FX is 'triggering': FX selection and mix value can be made directly from a MIDI keyboard or a MIDI control surface.
Modules:
- 1 FX selector "button bench".
- 1 synced value "button bench".
- 1 synced delay with feedback, high and low damping.
- 1 glifter (glide/drift) to produce some scratch/tape stop-like FX.
- 1 flanger with feedback damping.
- 1 six stages standard phaser.
- 1 decimator unit with sampling rate reduction, bit depth reduction and a saturation.
- 1 realtime slicer with looping speed control and a quantized variator.
- 1 ring accumulator with feedback and low damping.
- 1 tri combs with a chord selector, feedback and root note selector.
- 1 shared LFO with 6 shapes (sin,tri,square,saw up,saw down and sample & hold).
Technical specifications:
- Full stereo processing.
- Two phases Low frequency oscillator with sync offset.
- Dry/wet signal smoother.
- Maximum mix level defined for each FX.
The 'synced value' trigger bench is used to drive a specific parameter of each FX:
- Delay: delay time.
- Glifter: glifting ramp reset frequency.
- Flanger: delay modulation frequency.
- Phaser: all-pass filters frequency modulation.
- Decimator: sampling rate reduction ratio.
- RT Slicer: offset to read in the sampling buffer.
- Ringer: delay time.
- TriCombs: tonality in MIDI scale (pitch).
These values are synced to the VST host in double-croche values (from 1 to 8, as time or as frequency value).
MIDI specifications:
- The two benches of buttons can be automated with both MIDI notes and CC (all channels).
- The faders can be automated with MIDI CC.
- The MIDI map is implemented in a classic grid directly connected to the plugin MIDI system, once a value edited it can be tested directly. Editing and saving is accessible with the popup menu on the main interface.
Ultra Trigger FX is available for the introductory price of €10 (normally €20) and functions as a VST effect plug-in for Windows.
ADopplerEn v1.1 changes:
- Less parameters, there was an error with pan volume it was computed twice.
- New GUI.
- 3 built in FXP.
- Double fp precision.
