great plugin but crackles in zenbeats

crackles in zenbeats

A go-to FX for sound creators

When a track/stem needs something but I don’t know what it needs, I turn to this (among others) to find how much more mileage I can get out of a sound. It usually proves to be quite a bit more.
Why? 8 lines each w/ it’s own pan/delay/pitch/gain control.
You select which/how many lines to activate and adjust as needed.
This can function as a solid, creative utility for mixing in addition to serving as a creative sound design tool.

It could be me...

But I have tried this in various instances and have repeatedly failed in achieving anything I like. In theory this sounds amazing but have yet to practically use it although user error may be part of it. Will update once I achieve that eureka moment. If ever.

Very unimpressed

Crashes a lot when I host it in ape matrix. Interface is absurdly tiny and fiddly to use unless you are zoomed way in on a certain portion of the plugin. Edit:Apparently they are also emotionally unstable. I was generous w the two stars.

Response from developer

Yes. We know. All of our Audio Units are actually crap and useless. And we are dumb and talent-less ppl, who better should have learned something other than attempting to design and create professional (or even very basic) audio stuff.  Possibly such as 'cleaning the streets'.  Please send us a pistol, and we'll using that to end all that awful disaster. PS: The interface can be freely zoomed. And if your host crashes, there may be the possibility that the host is doing something wrong. We advice you to enable automated crash reports on your devices to actually being able to identify these issues.

Great thickener and stereo voice tool

The app is a great tool to have for shaping and leveraging your audio material. Lots of possibilities for designing new sounds from your current ones.
