Bitheadz announces "tempo tantrum" virtual drum loops module for mac and PC drum loops sho109th AES CONVENTION, LOS ANGELES, CA - BitHeadz, Inc., the leading manufacturer of software synthesizers and samplers today announced "Tempo Tantrum", the company's latest virtual sampling library for Mac and PC. Tempo Tantrum combines the Unity DS-1 sample engine with over 200 megabytes of stereo drum loops, and features the ability to speed up or slow down each loop without affecting pitch.Tempo Tantrum accomplishes this feat by employing the Unity sample engine's breakthrough "oscillator stretching" technology. Oscillator Stretching uses sample split points to allow the tempo of a loop to be adjusted in real time without affecting the loop's pitch. Loop tempo can be manipulated with Unity's oscillator speed control, or with MIDI controller messages sent from a sequencer or hardware controller. "Until recently, the ability to manipulate tempo without changing pitch was only possible through extensive MIDI editing and loop slicing," points out Earl Sondreal, Director of Sales for BitHeadz. "This functionality is contained directly within Tempo Tantrum, simplifying the process of adjusting tempo, and creating many more possibilities for mixing up different rhythms and effects." The loops for Tempo Tantrum were recorded with a live drummer and are firmly rooted in the popular "breakbeat" style. Different program settings are provided for variations on tempo, wet/dry mixes, and pitch-shift effects. The title also includes a set of bass lines and keyboard comps that can be mixed and matched at different speeds. Tempo Tantrum ships with a multitimbral mixer, built-in effects, and the required components for integration with professional sequencers and soundcards. Tempo Tantrum ($199 MSRP) is expected to ship in Q3, 2000. The product is optimized for the Apple G4 and Pentium III/IV processors and supports OMS, FreeMIDI, ASIO, Direct I/O, DirectConnect, MAS 2.0, ReWire, DirectSound, and Sound Manager. Tempo Tantrum will also be compatible with Phrazer, BitHeadz loop-based sequencer expected to arrive for the MacOS later this year. + Post comment/question/reply |
