Nokia Audio Suite

Nokia Audio Suite free other-utility by Nokia

Nokia Audio Suite is a free audio and studio utility VST plugin developed by Nokia. Compatible OS(s): Windows 64b.

The Nokia Audio Suite is an integrated mobile audio authoring tool designed to offer one integrated environment for all Nokia’s mobile audio development needs when used with a sequencer. In addition to the main plugin (Nokia Audio Suite 2.0) with complete feature set, the package contains two other software products (Auralisation tool and The Lights Editor) for more limited tasks only.

VST Audio plug-ins
Nokia Audio Suite 2.0 is an authoring tool designed for use by audio professionals who create audio content for mobile devices. More specifically, NAS 2.0 allows its user to monitor, analyze, create, and edit the SP-MIDI, MobileDLS and MobileXMF format types of audio content. Lights Simulation and editor, a feature of NAS 2.0, can be used to create content for and simulate the Nokia Lights Feature enabled phones.

Auralisation tool plug-in auralises (or models) the audio content the way it would sound when played through the speaker of a mobile device taking into account physical properties of the mobile device (such as cover, hardware components used). Note that there may be differences between PC speakers.

Standalone program
The Lights Editor is an application for creating and editing Lights Configurations within MIDI files.

Features of the Nokia Audio Suite 2.0:

  • Creation and editing of SP-MIDI, mobile XMF and mobile DLS files, including a WAV-editor.
  • Project tree with the copy / paste of data from one audio-file to another allows fast development of multiple music files.
  • The possibility for playback of (edited) mobile audio files in the plugin itself, without export.
  • Combined use of a Nokia’s phone’s sound bank and auralisation profile.
  • Includes two original synthesizers used in Nokia phones for playback.
  • Integrated environment for editing and simulating midi lights data.
  • Project file written in the XMF-format.
  • Vibra activity indicator.
  • Supported Nokia phone models: 2650, 3100, 3200, 3220, 3230, 3300, 3510, 3510i, 3650, 5100, 5140, 6020, 6100, 6170, 6220, 6230, 6230i, 6260, 6600, 6610, 6630, 6650, 6670, 6800, 6820, 7200, 7210, 7250, 7270, 7600, 7610, 7650, 7710, 9300, 9500, N-Gage, N-GageQD.

nanoKONTROL – Control Surface Plug-in for GarageBand / Logic

nanoKONTROL - Control Surface Plug-in for GarageBand / Logic free utility by Korg

nanoKONTROL – Control Surface Plug-in for GarageBand / Logic is a free audio and studio utility Audio Unit plugin developed by Korg. Compatible OS(s): macOS.

The nanoKONTROL Control Surface plug-in for GarageBand/Logic dramatically improves performance with Apple’s GarageBand and Logic when using Korg’s nanoKONTROL Slim-Line USB Controller hardware. This plug-in is in response to worldwide requests from many users of the nanoKONTROL and both GarageBand and Logic.

Because Apple’s GarageBand doesn’t allow users to assign CC settings, previously there was no way for users to customize MIDI controllers. The plug-in for Logic offers simplified settings – manually assigning settings in Logic can be very difficult and the template used by Korg requires installation in a way not recommended by Apple. However, by using the “nanoKONTROL Control Surface plug-in for GarageBand/Logic” installation is done as recommended by Apple and nanoKONTROL works with Logic Pro without complicated settings.

Korg’s nanoKEY and nanoPAD can be used with GarageBand without any plug-in required.

Functions that can be controlled:

  • Transport.
  • Volume/Pan/Mute/Solo for each channel.
  • EQ.
  • Effect send.
  • Software sound source.

Note: Users can control after 9th channel.

Muteomatic

Muteomatic free utility by Sound Radix

Muteomatic is a free audio and studio utility VST, VST3, Audio Unit, RTAS, AAX plugin developed by Sound Radix. Compatible OS(s): Windows 64b, macOS.

Muteomatic is an elegant and simple plug-in that automates the activation of a talkback or listen microphone channel according to your DAW’s transport state and boldly displays the channel’s activation status.

Did you ever find yourself talking to the band in the studio excitedly, only to realize that you’ve spoken to yourself for the last few minutes, because you’d forgotten to press the talkback button? Or did you ever have to put out a fire started by a client who had commented on a talent’s attitude while the talkback mic had been unwittingly left open?

Enter Muteomatic.

Muteomatic will auto-mute the talkback or listen mic channels according to your DAW’s transport state, opening the mic automatically when the DAW stops and muting it back when the DAW is in playback or recording mode, all while clearly displaying when the mic is open or muted, so that you won’t find yourself in awkward positions or have to play fireman again.

In addition, Muteomatic can be used to auto-mute long effect tails or a monitor’s vocal effects when the DAW is no longer playing, clearing the air for intelligible conversation.

Music IO: MIDI over USB

ZynAddSubFX free software-synthesizer by paulnasca 2

Music IO: MIDI over USB is a free audio and studio utility VST, Audio Unit plugin developed by Secret Base Design. Compatible OS(s): Windows 64b, macOS.

Music IO: MIDI over USB allows you to send MIDI between an iOS device and either a Mac or a PC, using only an ordinary USB sync cable. No camera connection kit, or other hardware — just lightning fast MIDI in both directions, using a cable you already own.

Install Music IO on your iOS device and your desktop, and start the apps on both; when you connect the sync cable, the apps will detect each other automatically. After that, MIDI sent from one side will be forwarded to the other, with latency on the order of a millisecond or less.

If you need audio transfer as well, check out the Music IO: Audio and MIDI over USB (which does, as you might guess, both audio and MIDI). The Mac server can handle either type of connection, making installation easy.

For audio, there are also VST and AU plug-ins, allowing easy integration of iOS synthesizers and effects apps into a traditional desktop environment.
