Hi everyone,

Cableguys is pleased to announce HalfTime, the instant creative half-speed VST/AU effect. Rated 10/10 by Computer Music magazine, HalfTime is already in use by David Guetta, Armin van Buuren, The Chemical Brothers, and many more.

Just add HalfTime for an instant half-speed effect with zero setup. Or go in deep with powerful creative controls. HalfTime works on loops, virtual instruments or even live audio input, inspiring you in seconds.

It's based on the algorithms behind our TimeShaper effect, but is designed purely for half-speed effects, with a few exclusive features for refining this effect.

Buy for €10/$12 or try the demo at http://www.cableguys.com/halftime.html

As an owner of ShaperBox it seems HalfTime is also free for me, thanks (Cable) guys!

Yes, if you bought the ShaperBox Bundle, then you own TimeShaper – and so HalfTime is free for you. Enjoy the plugin!

Nice plugin

So if I own the Shaperbox Bundle, how do I go about getting HalfTime? Does it matter when I purchased the Shaperbox Bundle? It was a while ago....

Just log into your account – HalfTime is already in there

To clarify, when you buy ShaperBox Bundle, you are getting 5 products: TimeShaper, VolumeShaper 5, WidthShaper, FilterShaper Core, PanShaper 2. And these 5 effects run inside one plugin called ShaperBox.

We updated our User Account page this week, actually, to make it clearer how the individual Shapers relate to the ShaperBox shell – hopefully when you log in, it will become clear!

Cool stuff. Simple but very effective.

On a drum track for example it does the right thing needed for a "poor man's break" (in the best meaning). Guess it's a perfect live tool. Congrats.

Aha! Thanks! I logged in before, but I must have missed it. My fault. Thank you

I have ShaperBox "Bundle" but without Timeshaper. I guess what you say is not always the case? Afaik Shaperbox doesn't mean Bundle but the plugins you have + Shaperbox. If you say Bundle you mean all plugins + Shaperbox right?!

I wish you guys would add VST effect hosting to ShaperBox, would make it way easier to use than MidiShaper in the DAW

ShaperBox is the plugin shell the Shapers run inside. You can own 1 Shaper, all 5 of them, or some combination. (The only "Shaper" effects that don't run in ShaperBox are FilterShaper 3 and MidiShaper, which are separate plugins).

ShaperBox Bundle is a bundle on the Cableguys shop. When you buy it, you get all 5 ShaperBox-compatible Shapers for a discounted price.

Does that make sense?

Yep, thanx for clarification: I'll upgrade to the Bundle (means buying TimeShaper) and get the HalfTime for free!
