Cableguys Curve

YouTube via CableguysOfficial | December 15, 2010 |

"Curve is a unique software synthesizer with editable waveforms and preset sharing. For Mac and Windows, as VST or AU."

http://www.cableguys.de/curve.html

"Cableguys have released Curve: a unique new software synthesizer based on editable waveforms and preset sharing.

Creating sounds with Curve is intuitive and immediate. The waveform editor is irresistible, and provides completely new possibilities for experimentation and detailed tweaking. Three powerful oscillators, three envelope generators, two filters and four LFOs work together in a sophisticated modulations matrix, all set out in a clear, uncomplicated user interface.

The other half of Curve exists outside the synthesizer. Curve's preset library is a shared online database, populated with your presets and those from other Curve users. This ever-growing, community-driven sound library provides users with a constant source of inspirational sound, and the opportunity to share, tag and rate sounds quickly and easily across the web.

The Curve community can also steer the future development of the synthesizer, as bug reports and feature requests are completely public at all times:

http://cableguys.uservoice.com

We, Cableguys, believe this is an essential aspect of Curve, and we're excited about where our users are going to take us."

"Also, we just introduced the Cableguys Bundle. It contains all our plugins (Curve, FilterShaper 2 and VolumeShaper 2). Until March 1st, it's available at an introductory price of EUR 129/USD 174. Afterwards, it will be EUR 149/USD 199. More on that:

Users can add their feature wishes and vote on features for Curve, and the feature wishlist is public at all times:

http://cableguys.uservoice.com

I'd like to give you a overview of the major next steps that are planned for Curve:

- Until beginning of March we will add modulation for LFO speed. A first implementation is done and just needs fine-tuning: [link]

- Until beginning of April we plan to allow modulation of pitch and volume per OSC (not just globally). The necessary preparations in code (including improvements on CPU usage) and GUI are made, so we are confident to stick to that plan. [link]

You might remember Curve from this user demo video. Note Curve is now on version 1.0.

Cableguys FilterShaper 3 Out Now!

Published on Jan 20, 2014 Cableguys·13 videos

"Filter, Volume and Pan Modulations on Steroids.
Save EUR/USD 20 until January 21!
MORE INFO AND FREE DEMO: http://www.cableguys.de/filter-shaper..."

"FilterShaper 3 takes a giant leap into unconventional sound design with two powerful filters, freely editable modulation curves, and an immensely flexible modulation framework.

The new Sallen-Key type filters deliver a rich, warm, intricate sound. Create complex, shifting, interweaving effects. Apply subtle nuances or giant wobbles. From filtersweeps and stereo tremolo to surgically-precise filter control and multiband sidechain effects.

Try it out — download the demo and let FilterShaper 3 loose on your audio productions.

Experiment and Explore
Start with two filters, running in serial or in parallel, plus a set of simple controls. Then set things in motion: All main controls have their own modulation section with two flexible LFOs and one envelope follower each. For advanced effects editing, each LFO in turn has its own speed and intensity control — each with its own LFO and envelope follower. And all LFOs can be MIDI triggered. Visual feedback on each control and oscilloscope views on each LFO keep you focused. And a community-powered, ever-growing library of presets provides starting points and inspiration for your own sounds.

Total Precision Control
FilterShaper 3 excels at surgically precise control. For pinpoint tweaking of the modulation curve and a close-up oscilloscope view, open up the detail panel. Filter out a specific beat in a loop. Tame a booming kick. Or shape a tired sample into something lively and vibrant. You have two filters, 60 LFOs, and 50 envelope followers at your fingertips — a detailed, interconnected toolbox for shaping your sound.

Advanced Multiband Sidechain Effects
As well as pinpoint editing, pulsing rhythmic effects, and left-field, alien craziness, FilterShaper 3 can deliver flexible, precisely timed sidechain compression effects. For multiband sidechain, set up filter one to manage the lows and assign filter two to the highs. Duck out the bass when the kick hits, take out the highs to emphasize a snare — simply draw the curve for each as required. Download the demo and try it out for yourself."

Cableguys MidiShaper in Beta

You might remember MidiShaper from this video of the Alpha. It is now in Beta.

"Enhance your synths and effects with MidiShaper. Powered by Curve's unique modulations engine, MidiShaper brings Curve's flexible yet powerful LFOs and envelopes to all your favorite synthesizers and effects.

Four LFOs and four envelope generators work together in a sophisticated modulations matrix which can be set up to output modulated pitch, modwheel, channel aftertouch or any MIDI control messages.

MidiShaper's LFOs can be ever-running or retriggered, synced to your host sequencer from a buzzy 1/128 to an expansive 32 bars, set to the played note, or free-running from 0.02 Hz up to the audible range and brain frequency. Just as Curve, MidiShaper features completely editable waveforms for its LFOs.

If your plugin or host sequencer allows for MIDI control, you have a great tool at hand to create vivid, inspiring sounds, and bring the flexibility of Curve to your favorite software plugins or hardware synths.

Have a look at a video introduction, download the public beta, try MidiShaper and report as many bugs as you can:
