I have to add all my compliments to iZotope for "Food". Way more the best of all presets is in here, they combine sound design imagination and a very good playability! It is a great and very generous offer!! Best!!!! :clap:

I wait for the result of the survey, with all Iris users. I hope timestretch and longer sample load will be on a future update :pray:

Ok, I'm loving Iris, agree with all of the feature requests etc above, but I have found an issue....

In a Cubase 6.5 project (Win7 64 bit matchine running 32 bit Cubase etc), I have several instances of Iris loaded.

Each time I open this project, some of the instances of Iris produce no sound, until I nudge the (home made) patch to the next one and back again.

Anyone else experience this?

Izotope can you fix this in the next release?

Some nice macros in that set but how do you save them? I would like to snag some as macro styles but there is no save dialogue it seems.

Was playing round with Metasynth today and made a sound I thought would work well as an Iris preset - they seem to go together very well.

They do... Iris is the performance sampler/mixer that Metasynth 6 should feature! ;)

Still can't see how you are supposed to save macro styles for resuse? I can save a macro per patch but how do you add to the dropdown list of macro styles? The manual doesn't cover that.

I've been trying to understand that myself. I don't think there is a way for a user to add to the dropdown list of macros styles. Perhaps it is something iZotope could add in an update.

Going by what the manual says, I suppose a sort of workaround would be to take a patch where you have a macro config you like, strip it of the sounds used, and resave it as a sort of INIT patch.

The macro files are located at "C:\Users\'username'\AppData\Roaming\iZotope\Iris\MacroStyles". Don't know about Mac. It's in XML format and can be editied with a text editor.

On Mac it is:
/Library/Application Support/iZotope/Iris/MacroStyles

(The System Library, not the User Library)

I tried the demo, and Iris could be a really neat tool for me.
Decent idea and lots of potential!

But as long as the sounds one creates can only be saved for Iris and not exported into .WAV or .OGG or .AIFF samples, it's of no practical use to me.

eMailed iZotope support about that, and all they said was words to the effect of "load it into your host as a plugin, load the sound into Iris, send a MIDI track to it and just render out of Iris what you need".
Yeah, right.
For that amount of money... sure.

I always use Iris inside Cubase and never tried the standalone. You are right: it seems not to be possible to save the music created with Iris from the standalone. Only the patches.

To me that is not a problem as I use Iris as *an* instrument in a composition.
But yes, standalone doesn't make much sense without the option to save as wav.

It's a plugin like any other - you play it in a host and record the sounds. The standalone is just a bonus - I use it for designing sounds or casual playing but most plugins doesn't even have standalone versions.

It's been all so quiet around Iris lately :)
Here is an Iris patch from the upcoming subscription set made from spectralized table bell sounds - processed with some B2 Reverb for more aural fun:
