A Find for those looking to use an old Mac and programs like Logic 4.8 which support Premiere plug ins. New Old Stock Software!

Valve emulation in software is nothing new, but DUY have modelled a whole range of triode, pentode and tetrode valves at different bias and drive levels, to create a very flexible plug-in. Their system deals with the dynamic and spectral aspects of valves separately, because although it's well known that valves compress signal peaks when they're overdriven, the resulting harmonic structure varies with the valve type and biasing arrangement.

The Spectrum part of the process simulates the frequency and transient response of the valve, while the Dynamic part emulates the distortion caused by the valve's non-linearities. In addition to the input level slider, there's also a drive control called the Pusher, arranged as a horizontal fader, but there's no output level control, so it's not always possible to balance the processed and direct levels for comparison. A further control, called Lobe Flip, inverts the effect of the valve, to reverse the positive and negative-going characteristics, which may be quite different in a typical valve circuit. With symmetrical input material this will make no difference, but where the material being processed is very asymmetrical (brass waveforms are very asymmetrical, for example), the subjective difference can be quite noticeable.

The various valve characteristics are arranged as a matrix of 40 presets for the Spectrum processing and 40 for the Dynamic processing, each set being laid out as a drop-down 5 x 8 menu of instrument icons, to provide some idea as to which types work best with which sounds (the same icons are present in both sections). A Link button forces the same preset to be chosen from both Spectrum and Dynamic settings, but unlinking it allows any preset from one group to be combined with any preset from the other. This may all sound a bit anorakish until you listen to the effect, but it's an easily verifiable fact that some kinds of non-linearity sound great on some instruments or voices and awful on others.

In either case, mono or stereo signals may be treated. The effect is both authentic and controllable, and used with care it can add a little welcome character back to an all-digital recording.

A level-maximisation processor using what DUY describes as Intelligent Level Optimisation. Unlike analogue limiters, this plug-in updates its parameters on a sample-by-sample basis, to restrict the dynamic range of signal peaks in a very unobtrusive way. In addition to the input gain slider, there's a Max slider to set the threshold above which processing takes place. The manual states that if the input signal comes close to 0dB, the Max slider range is limited to around 6dB, and above this point unwanted artifacts may appear. An output slider sets the maximum peak value of the processed signal and meters show the levels of the input and output signals simultaneously. DUY Max may be used in mono or stereo.

DUY Max is a very easy plug-in to use, and providing you don't push the processing too far, the effect of limiting is largely invisible.

The Evolution Playplanet has 37 notes and connects directly to your PC soundcard  (SoundBlaster) game port. It controls your PC letting your soundcard make the sounds in the easiest and most creative way possible.

A different sound or music loop is assigned to each of the 37 keys. These sounds are arranged into sets. The Evolution Playplanet software comes complete with six different sound sets: Pop, Dance, Kidz, Piano, SFX and Latin. You can arrange a pop song, create a dance track or play the keyboard like a normal piano. The Kidz set allows you to play along with your favourite nursery rhymes, add animal sound effects and play a toy piano. Latin turns your PC into a home keyboard with a Latin style and a Vibes sound. SFX is a collection of weird and wonderful sound effects and sci-fi noises.

You can record what you play and then play it back or add more to it and each set comes with a professionally prepared demo track. A free upgrade available November 2000 allows you to export your recording to a wav file for creating your own audio CD. You will need a CD writer and software (not included)

Each sound set has appropriate graphics which are selected automatically for you.

Flashing spinning graphics accompany the Pop, Dance and SFX sets and a picture of a Grand Piano is shown for the Piano set. A spinning CD graphic shows when the program is making sounds and some of the sets show a moving wave picture of the sound. When the Kidz set is loaded, a farmyard scene is shown. The graphics show which animal is making a noise and you can also click on the individual animal pictures to make their noise.

The Evolution Playplanet uses your soundcard’s MIDI drivers and will therefore work with all other MIDI music programs.

This is a find in our warehouse for those 90s Mac users. It's an open box but never used.

Hybrid's GenEdit, not surprisingly, is a generic MIDI synth sound editor. A good range of profiles came with the software, though the list now has a very mid-'80s feel; instruments supported include Yamaha's DX7, Roland's D110 and D50, the Ensoniq ESQ1, the Kawai K1, and the Oberheim Matrix 6, and it's also possible to create new profiles for unsupported instruments.

It's files are compatible with the Atari version and includes a mini sequencer.

System Requirements

Mac Plus or better 68k processor
OS 6 or better
MIDI Interface
Supports Apple MIDI Manager
