Catchin’ Sync

Catchin' Sync free studio-tool by Quiet Art

Catchin Sync is a free studio tools plugin developed by Quiet Art. Compatible OS(s): iOS.

Catchin’ Sync allows you to capture and manually determine audio SYNC issues of your video playback device.

In almost all cases, where audio and video playback passes through separate devices (i.e. Audio through receiver, video through LCD TV or Projector, etc.) there will be advancement or delay on the audio signal, making the viewing experience unpleasant. Catchin’ SYNC will help you determine if your system is in SYNC or not and by how much in milliseconds or frames. With that information you can add appropriate amounts of delay to your signal and get everything play along properly in SYNC.

Purchasing the full access allows you to record or use your own videos.

CatchDad

CatchDad free buffer-synth by Noisebud

CatchDad is a free buffer synth VST plugin developed by Noisebud. Compatible OS(s): Windows.

CatchDad is the second Noisebud plug-in created strictly for live situations. With CatchDad you can catch 4 different sounds with just the click of a button and instantly start to program rhythms with the built in step sequencers.

Put it on a channel (or return track) in Ableton Live (or any other VST host that send time signals). Activate live monitoring if you like to record live sounds or run a loop trough CatchDad and start programming beats on the fly, or you could use loops as sound banks to change sound as you go or catch a live drummer and start to rearrange what he’s playing in real time or just add hits here and there.

Other features:

  • Shuffle.
  • Adjustable sequencer length (you can create isorhythmic patterns).
  • ‘Free’ or ‘host’ tempo modes.
  • Auto record. CatchDad can be set to record automatically.
  • Pitch can be set to either 12 tone equal temperament or free.
  • There are 128 user presets accessible by MIDI program change. If a user preset is changed it is saved with the song/project. Up to 128 presets with the project, so there is no need for a store button. Really handy in Ableton Live, just create a MIDI clip with the program change and the pattern will load immediately when the clip is launched.

Catalyst

Catalyst free software-synthesizer by Broken Gadget

Catalyst is a free software synthesizer developed by Broken Gadget. Available format(s): VST for Windows.

Catalyst produces hybrid waveforms by taking two oscillators, applying half wave rectification then sticking the results together to form some unusual waveshapes. The focus of the synth is producing some interesting, dynamic waveforms. The concepts may not be that familiar, however the synth has been designed so that each control does something meaningful and useful. There is an in depth manual on the developer’s site explaining what’s going on ‘under the hood’ and 64 presets to get you started.

The synth has been featured in Computer Music Magazine: “Different is good and Catalyst is nothing if not different.”.

Update, June 2013: The calibration of the control linking the envelope to the filter cutoff has been modified to yield a deeper envelope to cutoff modulation.

The short sound demo is created entirely with Catalyst. No external effects used, just a little mix compression.

Introduction:
The Casio MT-68 was a very affordable analog synthesizer sold in the 80’s that had miniature keys, 20 preset sounds and a rhythm section with auto accompaniment. It can be heard on various recordings and has an interesting 80’s or ‘retro’ sound. If you grew up with this synthesizer and wished you could hear it again, here is a chance to play it once more in Kontakt 5 and SFZ format.

SFZ is an open format and sfz sample players that fully support this library are available for current computer platforms. See the link below to install a free sfz player.

Great care was taken to record the MT68 with the best equipment and minimal processing so the original sound and character is preserved. All notes and beats were sampled and looped to offer the most complete virtual version of this classic synth for years to come. This was my first synthesizer, and I offer it’s sounds to my friends and fellow musicians who might be as fond of it as I am.

Note:

  • This library requires Kontakt 5 or a software sampler that can import sfz 2.0 instruments, or an sfz 2.0 player.
  • Tested in ARIA Player, Plogue Sforzando and Kontakt 5.
  • Full MT68 Beats and Fills provided at slowest tempo in the Loops folder (sfz).
