KLON - The Vocal Designer

At the heart of KLON - The Vocal Designer is a harmonic pitch shifter for natural pitch and formant manipulation of vocal sounds in realtime. KLON takes your voice and adds up to 16 different copies of your voice in realtime. This lays the ground for an impressive amount of applications like:

  • Choir generator
  • Harmonizer
  • Voice doubler
  • Change voice's gender
  • Pitch corrector
  • Extreme voice manipulation

The 16 pitch shifters inside KLON are divided into 4 groups making it easy to build up large choral parts from a simple, single vocal line. The four separate, switchable groups have their own dedicated set of controls. These controls include an x-y pad for fast, easy control of pitch and panorama. Each group can be altered in real time while music is playing or can be by-passed, edited and switched back on when required. The pitch for each group can be shifted by up to +/- two octaves with adjustable formant control retaining voice quality even at extreme settings. All of those controls are available for host automation for dynamic voice manipulations.

KLON includes a flexible and adaptive pitch correction to any given scale or external MIDI notes and chords. Think of playing a chord to immediately harmonize your vocal input. The realtime manipulation possibilities together with the low latency operation makes KLON the ideal live plug-in for vocals.

Product: Bark
Developer: VirSyn
Type: Filter
Price: €169
OS: WindowsMac OS XUniversal Binary
Formats: VSTVST3Audio UnitRTAS
Bark is a multi-band filter plug-in that attempts to match the reception characteristics of the final destination of all sound: the ear. The ear behaves as if it contains a bank of filters, each filter passing frequencies within the critical band. In fact, the human ear also has its own built in compression system which is based on the critical bands. Consequently Bark incorporates an independent compression algorithm for each of its 27 bands. Features: 27 Bark band Equalizer/Compressor. Linear phase precision filters for maximal transparency. +24 / -48 dB gain change rate per band. Surro... [more]

 
Product: Cantor
Developer: VirSyn
Type: Vocal Synth
Price: €349
OS: WindowsMac OS XUniversal Binary
Formats: VSTAudio UnitRTAS
Cantor is a sophisticated real-time vocal synthesis instrument that allows you to enter your lyrics in plain English or German and then "sing" them instantly by playing the melody on your MIDI keyboard. Realistic expression can be added with real-time parameters controlling vibrato rate and depth and you can change the character of the singing voice from female to male.Cantor also goes beyond creating realistic "human" singers as many parameters have no relation to the human voice, for example "Metallize" apparently turns your virtual singer into a singing Gong!Cantor's voice editor allows you...

Product: FDELAY - The Rhythmiser
Developer: VirSyn
Type: Delay / Echo
Price: €169
OS: WindowsMac OS XUniversal Binary
Formats: VSTVST3Audio UnitRTAS
The multi-band delay machine FDELAY is a tool for sound design and loop manipulation in realtime. In contrast to the delay machines you're used to FDELAY splits the frequency spectrum of the input signal into 27 bands and applies a separate delay unit to each band. The delay times can be synchronized to the host tempo generating nearly infinite rhythmical and sonic variations of the input signal. Features: 27 band realtime multiband delay. Frequency dependant level, delay time and feedback. Linear phase precision filters for maximal transparency. Tempo syncable delay times up to 6 seconds... [more]

Product: miniTERA
Developer: VirSyn
Type: Synth (Hybrid)
Price: €89
OS: WindowsMac OS XUniversal Binary
Formats: VSTAudio UnitRTAS
miniTERA offers "a radically simplified approach to sound design", based on the powerful multi-synthesis engine from TERA 3. Every preset in miniTERA has a built in "Sound designer" which presents you a set of up to eight meta parameters for convenient access to the most important aspects of the sound. This means sound design with miniTERA is a simple process: Select a base sound to start from one of the 500 meta presets. Optionally use the "slot machine" giving you a useful random preset with every other click. Change the sound characteristic with the eight meta... [more]

 
Product: Poseidon
Developer: VirSyn
Type: Synth (Hybrid)
Price: €199 - €219
OS: WindowsMac OS XUniversal Binary
Formats: VSTAudio UnitRTAS
At first sight Poseidon looks like a simple structured analog "Oscillator-Filter" synthesizer with all controls visible at once. This gives Poseidon ease-of-use with almost no learning curve. The real power is working under the hood: The oscillator is nothing less than the spectral modelling sound generator of VirSyn's CUBE synthesizer and the variable slope Filter is a completely new design based on VirSyn's unique F-domain synthesis. Features: Spectral modelling oscillator 512 oscillators Harmonic/inharmonic spectra Arbitrary noise spectra 8 times unisono mode Time machine ... [more]

 
Product: Prism - The Pitch Designer
Developer: VirSyn
Type: Pitch Shifter / Time Stretch
Price: €199
OS: WindowsMac OS XUniversal Binary
Formats: VSTVST3Audio UnitRTAS
Prism - The Pitch Designer is a multi-band pitch shifter that takes a fresh approach to solve the problem of shifting the pitch of complex sound sources in realtime. Prism splits the spectrum in to 27 bands and applies a different amount of frequency shifting to each band emulating a harmonic pitch shifting. This gives you perfect pitch shifting for all kind of drum sounds over a vast shifting range of +/- five octaves without disturbing the transients or introducing metallic distortions. With harmonic sounds you will get "inharmonicities" but it's much better behaved than pure frequ... [more]

 
Product: Reflect
Developer: VirSyn
Type: Reverb
Price: €169
OS: WindowsMac OS XUniversal Binary
Formats: VSTVST3Audio UnitRTAS
Reflect is an algorithmic reverberation plugin that combines the flexibility of vintage algorithmic reverbs with the sonic quality of convolution based reverbs. The creation of high quality reverb needs a realistic simulation of the important early reflections together with a smooth and colorless reverberation tail. The early reflections are the most important clue for the human ear to get a feeling about the dimension and character of a room. Most algorithmic reverbs offer a number of different algorithms to simulate different natural rooms like chamber, halls or artificial ones like plates. ... [more]

 
Product: TDesign - The Transient Former
Developer: VirSyn
Type: Dynamics (Compressor / Limiter)
Price: €169
OS: WindowsMac OS XUniversal Binary
Formats: VSTVST3Audio UnitRTAS
The idea behind the TDesign is to give the user direct control over the attack and sustain characteristics of natural sounds. Take a recording of an unremarkable drum kit and dial in some really hard-hitting attack or take a very percussive sound and soften the attack. You can also use the sustain control to work on the decay portion of sounds, and with drums you can tighten up the sound to give a fast, dry decay or you can make them ring as though you'd taken the dampers off the kit. Unique to TDESIGN is the ability to shape the transient not only amplitude wise but also with a dynamically c... [more]

VTape - The Analog Tape Suite is a set of three plug-ins based on a thorough simulation of the famous sound of analog tape machines. VTape Saturator simulates the recording and playback of an analog tape mastering machine. VTape Delay combines this sound with a modern, step sequencer-like tapped delay engine which leads the tradition of the tape echo machines into the 21st century.VTape Flanger simulates the legendary "Tape flanging" effect which can be achieved through the playback of two tape machines running at slightly different speed.
