July 18, 2001

SPARK, TC WORKS’ open signal processing application has set a new standard for audio processing with its wealth of realtime and signal routing capabilities since its introduction in 1999. With the SPARK FXmachine SE, SPARK’s signal routing power is now available as a web-downloadable separate product, amazing power - at a fraction of the price! The product is available only on the web, direct from TC WORKS’ web-site. FX-processing is essential in all stages of today’s music production process - from recording and mixing to mastering! SPARK FXmachine SE provides an easy interface to complex FX-processing: The 4x5 routing matrix at the heart of the FXmachine SE provides a fast and intuitive way to create new FX, using virtually any available VST FX-Plug-In as a building block. Combining even the simplest of freeware Plug-Ins in a multi-FX chain, will create unheard-of and unique results! “SPARK users say we make FX-processing a truly creative task, rather than it being a tedious chore”, says Ralf Schluenzen, CEO of TC WORKS. “TC Electronic’s Fireworx does that for the users of hardware processors, but we wanted something along those lines for the software world as well – and naturally we wanted it open to VST to provide the utmost flexibility. With SPARK FXmachine SE, we want all Mac users to be able to take advantage of this technology, with price not being an issue!” Of course users can choose freely from the vast array of Plug-Ins available for the VST platform. This way all types of effects can be created using SPARK FXmachine SE: from 4-Band mastering dynamics processing to frequency-specific noise reduction or uncommon multi FX. Thanks to on-the-fly rewiring of Plug-Ins, creative realtime sound design becomes a reality: All Plug-Ins are wired automatically in the matrix, ensuring the audio paths are never disconnected. One SPARK FXmachine provides processing on up to Four split frequency bands, each with its own chain of up to 5 Plug-Ins, which can then be saved as one global easy-to-recall multi FX preset - recalling settings with up to 20 Plug-Ins becomes a matter of seconds! The FXmachine Plug-In may be used without restriction like any other VST Plug-In - in any VST-compatible application such as Logic, Cubase, Peak or Spark – and is also available as a VST-to-MAS adapter for Digital Performer users. This way you can easily transport the most comprehensive configurations from one track to another or save them independent of the song for later use. Features
