NextMIDI has announced the release of Divisimate 2, a new version of their flagship product. Divisimate 2 boasts a number of new features that expand the possibilities of the software in multiple different directions.
The core idea of Divisimate is to split up chords on the keyboard into individual musical voices and then spread them across different instruments in the sequencer. Since every voice can be routed and modified individually, full realistic orchestrations built from virtual instruments can be played and recorded live. Where version 1 allowed to create up to 32 parts at once, Divisimate 2 introduces Multitimbral Ports, utilizing the MIDI Channels of each port to address up to 512 instruments at once.
One of the biggest new additions is the Arpeggiator plugin, which comes with a "Basic" and and "Expert" mode. While the "Basic" mode has all the things that are to be expected from an Arpeggiator, the "Expert" mode opens up a lot of possibilities to build custom phrases, textures and melodies. Another new plugin, the Transformer allows the user to apply realtime operations on incoming notes and controllers.
While Divisimate 1 was only available as a standalone version, Divisimate 2 can be used as a VST, AU or AAX plugin in the DAW.
We wanted to really open up what kinds of orchestrations you can create. We're still discovering new things that can be done with the added features, so we're excited to see what the Divisimate community comes up with in the next weeks and months.
