Sparkle AU from ApeSoft.

    It sounds more like Sparkle is becoming AU and this is a fantastic news as this is, in my opinion, the best app from apeSoft (and last one that is not AU yet)

  • skiphuntskiphunt

    I don't think it's an apeMatrix update. It's likely an AU update to the separate Sparkle app.

  • DaveypooDaveypoo

    Yep - can't wait for this and Stria to come to AUv3!

    Is it just me or do many of the ApeSoft apps have a watery, tinny sound? I adore the idea of them, but for some reason I can't coax anything rich out of them.

    Totally forgot about Sparkle been that long since I opened it !

    Well it depends on what the apps are trying to do. I certainly don't have a problem getting rich, fat sounds out of iVCS3!

    A lot of the other apeSoft / Amazing Noises apps deal with spectral manipulations. These can change the frequency relationships in ways that don't typically happen in the natural world, so the results don't have a "natural" quality to them. The results can be closer to inharmonic, metallic or glassy sounds.

    Also, conversion from time domain (your typical audio stream / sample) to frequency domain (to allow spectral manipulation), especially in real time, is computationally expensive. Restricting the sampling rate or the window size to improve performance will bandwidth limit the audio.

    In the specific case for Sparkle part of what it's doing is a form of spectral multiplication where common frequencies are amplified and unique ones suppressed. This results in a thinned out spectral response (but one that has the characteristics of both sounds).

    So yeah, some of them will produce a thinner, watery or glassy sound, but that's what they're supposed to do!

    Personally, I love their stuff because they don't sound like everything else. But I do typically pair them with "fatter" synths....

    Superb explanation of the reasons for the kinda typical glassy character that spectral manipulation tools often create or excel at.

    I’ve found that the apesound amazingnoises and the field/sound/synthscaper sounds respond very well as source into the Tonebooster collection of enhancement apps

    found a bug in latest
    the REC(ord) button
    that records the output
    doesnt work !
    it records 0 files...
    anyone could check/confirm?

    thanks

    Its works for me, are you using the IAA?


  • [Deleted User][Deleted User]

    It works for me too.

  • [Deleted User][Deleted User]

    Of course if you are using AUv3 then your host will record the output

  • waka_xwaka_x

    thanks!!!!

    I sprayed my pants once I figured out how to use this properly. Fantastic plug-in. I have 3 Apesoft & AN au’s - Dedalus, iVCS & Sparkle. They were made for me i need more.
