Chrome Tone RTAS

There is more to Chrome Tone than just a collection of effects that includes distortion, compression, gating, chorus, flange, EQ, wah, tremolo, spring reverb and tape delay. These are all designed with sonic flexibility for a myriad of applications from guitar, keyboards, drums and even voice. Chrome Tone is Mixing Amplified and it brings the world of custom guitar amps, boutique outboard gear and pedal effects inside your Digital Audio Workstation (DAW).

This free RTAS update also includes 40 Rhythm Files for triggering the envelopes of the Chrome Tone modulation effects. McDSP has also posted a Trigger Happy tutorial on their web site to show how to use MIDI information to trigger the performance effects within the Wah, Tremolo and Chorus modules, creating new rhythmic possibilities.

Chrome Tone is TDM and RTAS for Mac OSX with a retail price of $495.

Synthesizer One RTAS

Synthesizer One combines many sound creation techniques including wavetable, FM, AM, Ring modulation, additive and subtractive synthesis into a single software plug-in and is now available for both TDM and RTAS. Also included with this release are over 500 new and revised presets, additional virtual cartridges, and a waveform capture tutorial. Other Synthesizer One features include MIDI program change support, an independent effects section per instance, a performance generator, and the ability to analyze and resynthesize sounds from audio files.

Synthesizer One is TDM and RTAS for Mac OSX with a retail price of $495.

CompressorBank 3.3

Improvements made to CompressorBank include a wider gain range in the CB3 configuration's active EQ section for improved de-essing. With the new dbx 165 emulation in the CB4 configuration the list of selectable analog compressor models now includes Teletronix LA2A, Fairchild 670, Manley Variable - MuNeve 33609C, and the UREI 1176LN.
