Chicken Systems has announced seven new Translator Special Editions.
Translator Special Editions are fully-functioning versions of Chicken System's Translator program, except they only convert to one or more specific formats. The MSRP on them is 50% of the Translator Pro version, which converts into every available Instrument format.
The new Special Editions are:
- Structure Edition: Converts into Digidesign's Structure sampler, as well as SampleCell (this is the updated version of the older SampleCell Edition). The Windows version is now released; Mac version is forthcoming.
- MachFive Edition: Converts into MOTU's MachFive sampler (support for MachFive 2 is upcoming). The Windows version is now released; Mac version is forthcoming.
- Cakewalk Edition: Converts into Cakewalk Dimensions SFZ format, plus adds support for Project 5's DS-864 sampler and smaller scale Velocity sampler. The Windows version is now released; Mac version is forthcoming.
- ShortCircuit Edition: Converts into Vember Audio's Shortcircuit FREE sampler (Note: this retails for $49.95, down another 30%).
- Directwave Edition: Converts into FL Studio's Directwave sampler format (NOTE: this improves on the native conversions, as it converts into .dwp format).
- Wusikstation Edition: Converts into Wusik's Wusikstation sample-playback system.
- NexSyn Edition: Converts into KeyToSound's NexSyn MAP format. The Windows version is now released; Mac version is forthcoming.
