BandShift vs ADverb2

BandShift is a multi-band auditory filter and frequency shifter taking a new approach to manipulate the pitch of complex sound sources in realtime. The well know analog Bode frequency shifter shifts all frequencies in an input up by the same amount and thereby alters their harmonic relation and tends to produce inharmonic results. But it's perfect in dealing with transients and sounds smooth even with high amounts of down pitching. BandShift splits the spectrum in 27 bands and applies a different amount of frequency shifting to each band emulating a harmonic pitch shifting. This gives you perfect pitch shifting for all kind of drum sounds over a vast shifting range of +/- five octaves without disturbing the transients or introducing metallic distortions. The extreme range of shifting gives you access to a vast field of unknown sonic territory. The possibility to apply different shiftings on each band gives you exciting possibilities: Suppose you have a drum loop which is perfect, but the bass drum is a bit too high or too low to fit in your mix then you can easily get the bass drum shifted a bit down and the rest of the spectrum remains unchanged. But it’s applications are not limited to drum sounds, they’re only limited by your imagination.

ADverb2 is our love letter to the golden age of studio reverb: a small handful of controls, a big friendly panel, and a sound that flatters everything you run through it. Version 2.3 grows it from one algorithm into three. PLATE is the original ADverb algorithm, a classic digital plate with the fast build-up and silky decay that made these boxes famous. It remains untouched, and your old presets load exactly as before. AMBIENCE is a modern, airy space. It adds air and dimension around a source without an obvious tail at short settings, and blooms into a long, weightless wash when you push the time out. Time-varying early energy keeps it from ever sounding static. HALL is a large concert space, exceptionally smooth and very wide, with slow internal motion that keeps long decays lush instead of metallic. All three algorithms share the same simple control set: Pre-Delay, Reverb Time, Size, low and high Contour switches, Rolloff, and Diffusion, plus input level and output mix. The Input Mute and Reverb Stop kill switches let you perform with the reverb, choking the send or the tail on the beat. Mix Lock keeps your wet/dry setting pinned while you audition presets, ideal when ADverb2 sits on a send. Version 2.3 also brings our system-wide preset browser with folders and favorites, a hundred factory presets covering everything from drum plates to nine-second ambient washes, preset stepping right from the main panel, and presets that show up in your host's own preset menu. ADverb2 is an AUv3 Audio Unit and runs in any AUv3 host, including GarageBand and Logic Pro. The interface is fully resizable and scales to fit your device. No accounts, no ads, no in-app purchases.
