Paax2 (Free) Sampler is out
Posted: Sun Jul 03, 2005 11:47 pm
I've been using this and beta testing the new version.
Try it, it's good stuff.
Quoted from http://www.kotkasuniverse.com:
Paax is a VSTi (Virtual Instrument) sampler with the functionality of many fancy software and hardware samplers, yet quite easy to use! Some of its features are:
* Up to 128 presets per bank.
* Up to 84 splits per preset and 8 dual velocity-layers (16 samples) per split.
* 128 simultaneous voices*.
* Plays 8/16/24/32 bit**, mono/stereo wav files @ any sample rate.
* Low CPU consumption.
* RAM save scheme (only active presets’ samples are loaded at one time).
* Low aliasing resampling technology, 32 bit audio engine.
* 3 envelope controls (DAHDSR) per preset: amplitude, pitch and filter cutoff.
* 3 configurable LFOs per preset: tremolo, vibrato and filter cutoff with optional delay.
* All envelopes and oscillators can be synchronized to MIDI tempo.
* New Micro-Granular pitch-shifting option for transposing sounds without affecting duration/timbre.
* New bank format offers choice for embedded or referenced samples.
* Capable of importing SoundFonts (.sf2) and AKAI S5000/6000 programs (.akp)
* Fully automatable.
* VST 2.3 compatible.
* Freeware version is limited to 64 voice polyphony.
** Freeware version can only load 8/16 bit wavs.
