Looks to be great, hardly any presets unless you have to find them manually.

I have only listened, not actually used yet.
But I just read the manual and holy shizzzzz.

Yeah, it still crashes the AU validation in Logic but I'm now running it in "incompatible" mode and it works alright

Well, not to lag too far behind, here is a quick demo of the weirder side of Pitchfunk. I dumped it on a work-in-progress, basically some drums mangled in Iris and accompanied by a lovely jazzy piano solo. It was lovely, that is, until I ran it through Pitchfunk. Sure to annoy the hell out of any sane person.

On a serious note, check out the quality of those slowed-down drums... I've got them running through an automated filter and delay, so of course it's not pristine. But the sound quality of Pitchfunk is stunningly good; even the "poor" modes sound great!

Now the Topology settings and the Gain Post/FX Mix Post-routings in the Panel menue make this thing very/even more versatile! Great concept!!

That is about the wildest thing I've ever heard

Light fuse, get away

Can it be controlled, or does it just take over?

Finding it pretty tough to get something uninteresting out of this plug.

what OSX version?

on 10.6.8 and logic 9.1.7

it passed validation first time here

My specs are the same as yours - 10.6.8 with Logic 9.1.7, this was on my Macbook Pro last night, will try to validate in 32 Bit mode now and delete the AU-cache maybe - and then install it on my Mac Pro 8-core studio machine today and see how it goes.

Check out Pat Metheny's "The Sign of Four" when you have the chance. Makes this sound like angels singing.

Well, it can be controlled, and I really went nuts on this one. Both inserts (there are only two instances of PF on here) are taken from a blank slate and tweaked in about two minutes, which shows how easy it is to go overboard with this one.

Going to explore the subtler side, now that it's morning here and I'm sober again.

It also crashes the AU validation tool on my studio machine in 32 and 64-Bit mode so something is definitely wrong here.

DMGAudio PitchFunk, out now...
