We like to inform you about the update of crusher-Mac!

crusherX-Mac! 4

What's new?

With crusherX-Mac! 4 you will explore new static sound dimensions: Stop the live grain buffer and load your favorite audio file into the vapor buffer. Let the grains dance on your file and trust your ears! Play this cloud with your midi keyboard. Run the live vapor buffer mode and save the content of the current buffer to disk at any time. Starting and stopping the live vapor mode will not create transitions because a smooth small fading is automatically calculated. You can now use over 140 predefined and assigned plug-In parameters to control the plug from your host. With the new sizable and separated Cloud 3D window you can view the grains in detail. crusher-Mac! 4 supports Mac OS X.

Here you can find out more about crusherX-Mac! 4

New pricing!

crusherX-Mac! 4 : €79.00 (including 19% VAT)
Upgrade from all 1.xx, 2.xx, 3.xx versions to the 4.xx version : €69.00 (including 19% VAT)

If you are a registered user of older crusher-Mac! versions (1-3), you can find an update offer in the accSone shop.

Hi, is this identical to the Windows version as they seem to be on different version numbers?

I see, what is the difference from CrusherX 6? Is it just the lack of a standalone?

Yes, crusherX-Studio! and crusherX-Mac! are focused on plugin functionality including quantization mode.

So no sampler functionality or ability to edit sounds in the plugin and Mac version?

Stereo Input
4-Channel FM-Oscillator (same as in crusherX-Live!, but can't be edited, only random function. Sounds that are created with crusherX-Live! can be imported)

That seems too limited to me.

crusherX-Studio! (the VST PC version) and crusherX-Mac! (the AU/VST MAC Version) does not have a sampler on board, because they derive their input from the host track (and even from a better sampler provided by your DAW). So there is no need for the plugins to provide a sampler or other tone Generators.

So they function as effects then, not instruments?

So can you not play them with midi notes? Is that true of the standalone too?

Yes, sure!

Some DAWs have problems to route MIDI Events to VST effects. Here you find a couple of workarounds:

Just got an Email with the 4.21 update with an improved anti-aliasing mode for pitch shifting algos - testing now

Wow, that makes for a huge difference, of course with some presets the old aliased sound fits better but one can always disable the anti-aliasing algo. Great update once again!
