Loomer has released a major update to Shift, the diatonic granular pitch shifting delay effect, for Mac OS X, Windows and Linux.
Improving on the original, Shift v2.0 adds:
- Native 64-bit versions for Windows (VST) and Mac OS X (Audio Unit).
- Integrated Preset Browser, with meta-data, tags, searching, and hot-swap support.
- 5 Granular Delay Voices.
- Fast, Accurate Diatonic Pitch Tracking.
- XY Grid Control.
- Extensive Modulation.
An evaluation is available for free download, with the following limitations:
- User created Program and Bank configurations can be saved, but not loaded.
- Output will be periodically interrupted, approximately every minute, by a short moment of silence.
- Audio output will stop after 30 minutes of continuous use. The only way to continue using Shift is to restart the application.
Purchasing a licence will remove these evaluation limitations. Shift 2.0.0 is available for £45. Registered owners of Shift 1 are eligible for a free upgrade.
