Audiomodern’s new Freezr plugin is a realtime glitch sequencer that’s here to make your beats sound so cool it hurts – A creative stutter machine with ice running through its veins.
Audiomodern has unveiled Freezr, its latest creative supercharged freeze sequencing plugin. This enables you to ‘freeze’ specific sections of audio real-time and create glitching and stutter effects.
Freezr features plenty of pattern presets that you can tweak or use as they come, and you can also create your own. Those who are feeling lucky can use the randomisation controls, and there’s a slider for adjusting complexity.
In addition, Audiomodern has included its Infinity button to Freezr – this will keep creating new patterns as your music plays for as long as you let it. There’s a filter module in here, as well, and everything is MIDI controllable.
Freezr Demo:
Watch this video demo to see what Freezr is capable of. It runs on PC/Mac in VST/AU/AAX formats and is available now for the intro price of €19 (regular price €29). Alternatively, it’s currently free with the purchase of any other Audiomodern plugin, and there’s also a demo for you to try.
There is also an iPad version, for the price of $9.99. Find out more on the Audiomodern website.
In this video, Deft Audio’s Andrei Kudryavtsev demos the new Luma 1 Drum Computer.
The Luma-1 is designed to be an authentic, full-size recreation of the Linn LM-1, designed by Roger Linn in 1979. The Luma-1 recreates the original design of the LM-1, with the same audio path (with the original vintage DACs and filters) and running the original LM-1 software.
In addition to recreating the original LM-1 hardware, the Luma-1 adds a secondary processor, to add features not available in the original, like loadable sounds, USB connectivity and MIDI.
The Luma-1 is a passion project of Joe Britt, founder of Afero, which makes an Internet-of-things platform for businesses.
The Luma-1 will be priced at $4,999, the original price of the Linn LM-1. Orders will be manufactured in the order they arrive and delivered starting later this year. Details on kits are still to be announced. See the Luma-1 Overview for details (Google Doc file).
Analog Lab Play is a free Arturia plugin with a simplified interface and V Collection and Pigments sounds. New instrument comes with 100 easily-browsable presets that can be tweaked with macro controls.
Arturia has introduced Analog Lab Play, a free virtual instrument & simplified version of the existing Analog Lab plugin that’s designed to give you a wide range of sounds in a streamlined interface.
In a nutshell, Analog Lab Play is a free plugin that gives you a streamlined way to work with a collection of 100 presets. Behind the scenes, sounds are generated by the sound engines of Arturia’s V Collection & Pigments virtual instruments. These can be browsed and tweaked in minimalist GUIs, with macro controls (Brightness, Timbre, Time and Movement) enabling you to make “playful and immediate” changes to your selected sound. There are also four effects: two modulation processors, a delay and a reverb.
Arturia is confident that Analog Lab Play’s design will enable you to find the kind of patch you’re looking for in a matter of seconds, and you can save your favourites for even quicker retrieval later on.

Analog Lab Play runs on PC and Mac in VST/AU/AAX formats. If you like the interface, you can purchase additional sound libraries.
