AdrenaLinn Sync v2 for Windows Now Available

Roger Linn's AdrenaLinn Sync v2 for Windows is out. The following is a brief snip from the news letter:

"In May of this year we released AdrenaLinn Sync v2 for Mac, our software plug-in that provides--and even exceeds--the beat-synced effects portion of AdrenaLinn III. Now we've released it for Windows, in both VST and RTAS formats.

If you use computers for music and haven't yet tried out the free 14-day demo, please do so. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised. And please watch my brief video demo, showcasing the many inspiring sounds it creates." [posted here and here]

Mac version posted on June 7 here. Note the following on Way Out Ware from the recent news letter:

"A Cool Little Company Called Way Out Ware
AdrenaLinn Sync v2 was created in collaboration with a very creative small company called Way Out Ware. If you like the sound of the filters, audio processing and audio modulation in AdrenaLinn Sync v2, it's because of Way Out Ware.

What you may not know is that Way Out Ware has some very cool & creative products of their own:

1) TimewARP2600, a software emulation of the classic ARP 2600 analog synth (pictured).
2) KikAXXE, a software emulation of the classic ARP AXXE analog synth.
3) iSample, an amazingly deep sampler/recorder/looper for the iPhone/iPad for only $9.95!"

This is a straight take without video edits of an iSample 2.0 demo session by Jim Heintz. It was done using the built in sample bank called Chillbeat 86 that ships with iSample 2.0. This demo shows only a small fraction of the features new to iSample 2.0.

iSample 2.0 is available at the Apple App Store by clicking the following link: http://budurl.com/isamplevid"

I was fortunate enough to very briefly check out iSample at NAMM. It's an impressive piece of software.

A New World in Synthesis

YouTube via Pic2008Lex

Note the above video does not feature any synths. It is a concept video for a tablet UI. The hardware looks like the majority of artist renders for the upcoming Apple iPad/iSlate. If you haven't heard, tomorrow, Apple will announce their new tablet device. Rumor is it will essentially be an iTouch with a 10" screen, more power, memory and may have the ability to run multiple apps at the same time. [Update: it most likely will]

Why is this a new world in synthesis? In short this is a new hardware platform for synthesis. Yes it is an extension of the iTouch platform, but the obvious key difference and game changer in my opinion will be the size of the screen. For example, imagine controlling all of your synths running Numerology on the device in that video. Imagine interfacing with your modular with a UI optimized version of VOLTA or Expert Sleepers. Imagine running Way Out Ware's iSample, or how about an ARP2600 emulation with sliders. Imagine running Audio Damage's tattoo on one, etc. And don't forget the accelorometer. Processing power, additional memory, and potentially running multiple apps at once will only add to the advantage the slate will have over the iTouch.

Jim Heintz of Way Out Ware

Jim showed my his iSample sampler / recorder / looper for the iPhone. It's currently available on iTunes here. He also brought us the TimewARP 2600 and Kick Axxe, both highly acclaimed emulations. iSample is very, very slick. This actually got me pretty excited. One of the things I am eagerly looking forward to is the new Apple tablet to be announced on the 26th. I spoke to Jim a bit about it and if it has the horsepower and capability he will be interested in developing for it. I can't wait to see what comes from him next.

Be sure to see this demo video.
