Organic and beautiful presets for Shade, for free, from link below the video.

as far as i know, shade isn‘t included as an effect in falcon?!

"as far as i know, shade isn‘t included as an effect in falcon?!" correct not included in Falcon.

The "external" standalone Effects from UVI are insanely powerful. And Relayer has been available for some time now. I really had no idea until -The Bundle.
I've been processing my hardware synth with Shade and the Tape Suite and Plate from within Audio Hijack. A different instance of Shade on the right and left channel sounds amazing.
(UVI is Falcon.)

it wasn‘t really a question about shade. it was more a question what does shade presets have to do with falcon as this you s a falcon thread.

Has anybody an idea, how to switch the octave on the Falcon-internal keyboard when playing with computer keyboard? Each time, I use a widget on the info screen, it changes from the Ableton Computer MIDI keyboard to the Falcon-internal keyboard and I am stuck between C4 and D#5. Nothing in the doc, nothing found on internet...

Click plus icon on EVENT at Program level, then select Script Processor->Utilities->Transpose. It can transpose incomming MIDI note +/- 48 semitones.

Thanks for your answer. Unfortunately this won't help me so much. I use the computer keyboard for note playing mainly, when browsing presets and with each new program loaded, your workaround would need to be redone. I do a similar approach by switching the octave in the program box in the parts tab. At least the change then is permanent, even when loading a new program in that part.
It's not optimal though, because each preset has the sweet spot on another octave.

But they should really provide an obvious way to switch the ocatve on the keyboard or drop the whole thing and leave keyboard presses for notes on DAW level to manage that.

so, when looking at the last years, it's about time (mid-october) for 3.2 or 3.5 or even 4.0. whatever it's called this time looking forward to what's new in it!
and maybe one or two new expansion. i'd love some modern edm-sounds with the power of falcon

I think Shade is basically formed from the digital eq and xpander filter in Falcon, although obviously Shade presets won’t work within Falcon

Fired up Audioterm again. New wavetable led to this patch.
You might want to turn off invert pitch and midi out.
I'm on a bit of an invert pitch kick lately.

Supprised nobody askes for Granulizer as an external effect.

EDIT: Link fixed. Additional subfolder of old Audioterm Wavetables added.

To nitpick - Apple isn't the first to do year-based versioning (and they're only using the last two digits). For Apple, and UVI in the case of Falcon, it makes sense. If you're only releasing a major update once a year why not just use the year as the version number. Makes things quite easy.

Someone mentioned that Falcon updates have been usually mid-October, pretty accurate indeed..
