Technobabble: Synchronous polyphasic temporal compression for the coherent transsubstantiation of the phase-modulated frequency spectrum into a cross-dimensional, entropy-resistant acoustic singularity... to put it in simple terms: a baryonic resonance oscillation with fractal phase inversion that deconstructs the continuous time vector within the Hilbert space, freezing it inside an infinite, dimensionless audio event horizon. JAX Kryostatic is an AudioUnit (AUv3). AudioUnits require an audio host application. We produce audio tools exclusively for Apple platforms. The audio effect processor freezes your audio stream in real time. At the heart of its visualization lies an energy correlometer, alongside a dual stereo FFT waterfall display with adjustable flow speed. Using a "Touch and Slide" interface, you can intuitively freeze and shift the live stream's spectrum, visibly - even into extreme ranges. The freezing effect itself is automatic or freely adjustable, ranging from "Soft Iced" to "Hard Iced." So JAX Kryostatic serves equally well as a creative tool for sound design or simply as a musical analysis utility. This AudioUnit is highly optimized for real-time audio processing and very low CPU usage, as its entire graphical visualization is de-coupled and calculated / rendered directly on the GPU. Our new concept involves releasing some of our fully produced songs alongside our FRONTIER SERIES Audio Units. In doing so, we aim to illustrate our new guiding principle: providing musical tools rather than chasing obscure trends of noise production.
