CDM shared this audio demo of BattleFX, a free multi-effect plugin from Unfiltered Audio.
Here’s what the developer has to say about it:
“BattleFX was created to satisfy the common request of a dedicated plugin for the send effects in Battalion. The famous “Shatter Delay” and “Headspace Reverb” can now be used on any track. We have included a fully-featured set of mix controls, as well as Solo and Mute, so that you can hear or use each portion individually. Included is the Maximize and EQ section from the Master portion of Battalion, which have quickly become a signature sound of the device, and something fans have requested to use elsewhere.
Versatile enough to be used as both a utility-tool and full creative effect, it is the right squad-partner to keep always at your side in the field and trenches.
In addition, we have added a system for automatically choking the delay and reverb buffers at repeating intervals, including a Euclidean pattern knob. These can be tempo synced or free, controlled independently on reverb and delay, and even nudged slightly off of the beat in either direction. You can use this to create complex, organic ducking patterns, especially in conjunction with a noisy input and the Maximize knob turned up.”
BattleFX is available now for Mac and Windows as a free download.
one freely assignable parameter, two LFOs and an additional envelope with curvature
three new input sockets per module: SEQ STEP, SEQ RESET, SEQ PATTERN. Splice them through phybus and your modular drives the sequencer directly with clocks, sequence reset triggers and pattern select CVs
pair two zetaSIDs over phybus for a true stereo bassline patch that stays step-locked
non-bassline feature: individual instrument attenuation for drum engine
non-bassline feature: 180° screen rotation support (mount your zetas upside-down, if you want :-))
The latest Resident Advisor video captures a new interview with synth legend Suzanne Ciani.
The interview was held at IMS Ibiza.
Video Summary:
“After establishing herself as one of the first virtuosos of Don Buchla’s modular system in the 1960s, she went on to earn five Grammy nominations, score a Hollywood film, and found her own sound design company—creating iconic commercial soundtracks for Coca-Cola, AT&T, and Atari.
In this RA Exchange, recorded live at IMS Ibiza, Ciani traces her remarkable path to success. She breaks down the working philosophy that got her there: from walking away from opportunities that didn’t align with her vision, to carving out her own lane in a male-dominated industry that refused to make room for her.
Now, just weeks away from turning 80, she discusses life on the road, collaborating with a new generation of electronic musicians, and much more.”
