LoopCloud has also added a feature to browse synth presets on their homepage. Users can preview presets for synths like Serum and purchase them using points. Purchased presets are automatically installed, and multiple purchases can be downloaded and installed simultaneously with a right-click. The list of supported synths and default installation locations can be found in the preferences.

DC Snares Release

The co-creator of Scaler 2 has launched a new plugin called 'DC Snares'. This plugin specializes in adjusting snare drum sounds, a crucial element in track production. It provides users with tools to finely control snare drum sounds.

Baby Audio's Humanoid

Baby Audio has introduced an innovative plugin called 'Humanoid'. This plugin blurs the lines between pitch correction, vocoding, and wavetable synthesis, allowing voices to be transformed into unique synth sounds. It's a powerful tool that can turn user's voices into various synthesizer sounds.

zplane's Real-time Stem Separation Plugin

zplane, known for Ableton Live's warp algorithms and LoopCloud's technology, has released a real-time stem separator plugin called Peel Stems. This new plugin allows users to separate and adjust elements like drums, bass, and vocals in real-time.

A noteworthy feature is the EQ isolation function. This allows extraction of specific elements like a snare drum from an already mixed track. Furthermore, in some DAWs, this sound can be inverted and sent to effects like reverb, making it possible to add effects to specific elements of an already mixed track.

Here's hoping for another creative week for all you music producers out there!
