The release of BYOME is delayed by a week or two...

Yes, sorry for the delay. BYOME is officially finished and out of our hands, but there's still a lot that Plugin Alliance needs to prepare. This is an extremely deep plugin, so there's a lot more needed than usual.

We do have an awesome Sunder prototype that we'd like to improve for potential release next year. The best way to think about it is like a more detailed transient shaper. You can process the loud transients separately from the sustained elements.

Josh developed it while reading about Tony Visconti's recording techniques for "Heroes". There's a story about how he would set up three microphones at various distances and run them through separate effect chains. So, when Bowie sang quietly and up against the microphone, it'd be a much drier sound. However, when he shouted, more distant mics would pick up the sound and run it through a reverb chain.

Are you guys working ahead to make it Mojave immune... I mean compatible?!?

That’s really interesting to me, I wonder what PA has to do? Just curious, that’s all.

Haha. Had never heard of Sunder before, but that's an interesting idea for a plugin!

Pretty much everything outside of design, research, and development. They handle QA, marketing, copy-protection, tech support, a beta forum, artist outreach, etc.

Josh and I still run our social media pages, and I was the one who jumped the gun on announcing the release date before clearing it with marketing. That one is on me

Thanks

I'm looking forward to this one.

The delay is okay for me because I‘ll be able to use the October voucher then... (The September one went on MetricAB which is expensive but pretty good). By the way: has anybody a guess about the BYOME price tag?

That video's been out for over a month.

(and yes, it's exciting)

Oh, right on the last page.

Well it only has 1,988 views so I dont feel bad about a repost!
Spread it around!

The sound is great. These tools are a lot about control and workflow, which I guess we cant see yet, but this sounds like it has a pretty amazing toolset inside.

If only I wasn‘t just imagining „we‘ll make up for the delay with an extraordinarily generous intro discount“...

Would that be similar to Eventide Fission then?

I‘ll save my voucher for it but fear it will kill my October funds...

But there's already a few plugins around (band split with individual effect assignments) - Blue Cats, Hy-Plugins...
