BLEASS Multiband Compressor is the perfect tool for injecting loudness, power and punch into your mixes, stems and tracks. Whether you are creating music on-the-move on your iPad, producing your masterpiece in the studio, or doing both, BLEASS Multiband Compressor dispenses detailed precision control over your music's dynamics. One of the secret weapons of professional mix and mastering engineers, multiband dynamics processors have various advantages over conventional broadband processors. By separating your audio into three frequency bands, and processing each independently, BLEASS Multiband Compressor ensures that loud passages and transients in one frequency range do not impact on how the other bands behave. This eliminates the "volume pumping" effect often exhibited by broadband compressors, making BLEASS Multiband Compressor the perfect tool for processing drum kits, synths, pianos and – of course – full mixes and stems. The plugin works brilliantly with other sources too, from solo instruments to vocals and spoken voice. Unusually for a multiband processor, each of BLEASS Multiband Compressor's three bands features a dual stage dynamics processor. This consists of an Above stage that senses for and processes signals whose level exceeds the Above threshold, and a Below stage that senses for and processes signals that are quieter than the Below threshold. Additionally, each stage can operate as either a compressor or, by dialing in Ratio values below 1:1, an expander. Altogether this makes for phenomenally versatile control over the volume and loudness of your mixes, stems and parts. Another innovative feature of BLEASS Multiband Compressor is its flexible sidechain system. This allows you to choose which bands will key from the input signal in the normal way, and which will key from a filtered and/or external signal. This is ideal for corrective work such as controlling resonances, sibilances and other unwanted artefacts, but is also a fabulous creative tool, allowing for stylish ducking effects and ultra-deep dynamics control. Rounding things off, the plugin provides comprehensive output level and dry / wet balance control, along with a soft clipping feature that ensures overly-hot signals don't become nasty and harsh, but instead take on a classic valve-like saturation character. BLEASS Multiband Compressor stands out for its great sound, innovative features, versatile dynamics control, and exceptional efficiency.

Kebarp is your go-to arpeggiator for quick and easy pattern creation. Its customizable and responsive grid allows you to craft arpeggio patterns effortlessly. Simply connect a MIDI keyboard or sequencer to Kebarp as a source, and route its MIDI output to an audio app. It will arpeggiate the note you are playing according to the pattern you've drawn on the grid. You can fine-tune the arpeggiator's settings, including minimum and maximum octave reach, step count, gate, velocity, and swing, directly from the control grid. Easily select a scale from the control strip and start creating arp patterns by dragging your finger around the grid. To remove a note, simply tap on it. All notes are locked within the chosen scale, with numbers on the grid representing notes relative to the root note. For instance, 1 represents the original note, +2 is the note after, -2 is the note before, and so on. The retrigger option in the settings menu resets the sequencer with each new note played. Activate pattern chaining to automatically advance to the next pattern once the current one finishes playing. Includes Kebarp and Keboard AUv3 MIDI plugins. The standalone version of Kebarp supports Ableton Link. Please note that Kebarp is a MIDI app. The standalone version has an optional internal synth where you can enable or disable on the settings menu. The AUv3 plugin requires an audio app for output. For the AUv3 functionality, it needs to be hosted within an app such as AUM, Loopy Pro, Cubasis, Logic Pro, Nanostudio, Drambo, or apeMatrix.
