Nice
Do tell us about that micropitch, becouse I also have an icth
And what about that mangoverb? Would you say it superb?
Or the qvox for playing out of the box?
Or perhaps that rotary thing... I dont know Superhyped about this sale
Get them all if you can, now’s the right time. These prices are really fair.
Im trying to think what I’ll use Qvox and ultra tap for. I know for guitar would be awesome but lately haven’t had a chance to hook up my guitar except when playing live at church.
I use them on synth leads.
Ultratap is good for everything really. Percussion, leads, eerie poltergeist sounds late at night. It's all good.
Just fell for Qvox and UltraTap ❤️ Kids were nice to papa last bday! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Glad I could help a few of you with your Appaholism.
So is MicroPitch considered a pitch shifter?
@Daveypoo @thesoundtestroom Is rotary mod better than the Leslie in Galileo 2?
It's different - I don't know if I would say that it's better. My $0.02 on Rotary is that while it doesn't quite sound like an actual Leslie, it can do some really nice things and is a great tool better used as a special effect than to try and recreate a spinning speaker sound.
Sorry - I know that's not the simple answer you were looking for but I hope it helps!
nothing beats reverb tails for the granular synths!
I’ve got a fair bit of Eventide hardware and I still pick up the AUv3’s every time they go on sale. Very convenient to have the algos on the ipad.
@Daveypoo Actually it is the pretty simple answer I wanted. Not worth the upgrade. Thank you.
I compared Qvox and MicroPitch and to my taste as a guitar player, Qvox had a more pronounced Pitch shift effect. I can’t get MicroPitch to give me a more pitch shift effect but it’s subtle.
The Qvox is closer to my ToneStack favorite PolyOct effect. Man, really wish ToneStack was AU.
I just spent a fair bit of time testing Toneboosters Reverb, and while it does do a nice big reverb, plus a load of fancy modulation stuff as well, the delay isn’t as authentic to the original input, as I could hear in the Blackhole demos....or at least I couldn’t get there with tweaking.
So without fear of app duplication, I grabbed Blackhole.
Ruismaker Noir, into Scattr, into Dubstation 2, and 2 x Blackhole’s - with the Noir’s probability dialled in, and I had a nice ambient track going. No other instruments, just that one. One ambient album coming up this weekend.
Haven’t had much time with it, but the presets are superb.
Yep, happy with that.
I'm definitely in the minority here, but I'm not at all interested in WHOA OUTERSPACE! sounds. My mixes are probably too busy for that, and things get muddy quickly. As appealing as Blackhole technically is, I'll probably pass. But I'm interested in the spring reverb; does TB (which is a really lovely, malleable reverb) have a spring preset/capacity? (Not near my iPad.)
I like all the lofi talk of the FAC Alteza; but that's not on sale, so there's no rush to panic-buy!
looking forward to hearing noir ambient by itself! soundclouding it?
FAC Alteza might still be “on sale”. It’s still at the stated pre-launch discounted price... unless he decided the pre-launch is now the regular price.
No disrespect to QVox, but Harmonizr is still the most musical harmonizing app. (Don’t even bother with the Virsyn apps.)
Is it polyphonic so one can play chords? Does it work on audio?
Agreed. And for pure B3-type sounds, I prefer the one in Galileo.
Eventide Rotary is much more subtle, you won't get the same Leslie cabinet grit that you're able to get from the two Galileo 2 Leslie models.
I'm not even sure if I'd purchase the Eventide Rotary again.
Nope but I have loaded a few spring reverb impulse responses in Thafknar and they do their job.
Blackhole + Kosmonaut = Spacey times
Yah Blackhole is like a music genre to me. Even though I have enough reverbs Alteza’s pitching does sound like it could be interesting.
Alteza into Rotary sounds awesome.
Seriously. Try it.
post up a lil snip!
Blackhole also does some pretty amazing things with short reverbs - I teased some very unique stuff from it last night, but yes, it’s thing is deep space exploration, and I’m all for that sort of thing. First serious run out will be on vocals.
The spring reverb sounds VERY good. Not normally into that sound, but that one is so good I’m tempted to get it and create a bit of late 60’s psychedelic whimsy.
I didn’t record that one, but it’s saved in AUM so I might revisit it. The amazing thing for me, was using Noir as the source of an evolving ambient track - Blackhole did a proper dreamy space job on it.
Dang I have so many reverbs now LOL but how can I pass up Ultratap and Blackhole for 20 bucks
Yes, it is an audio effect. Why would you play a polyphonic chord into a harmonizer? I don’t think any of the audio harmonizing fx are going to give good results if you feed them chords.
