Unique Sonic Tools!
GRM Tools RTAS consists of eight plug-ins for realtime digital audio processing on Macintosh Pro Tools LE systems.
Band Pass: It lets you carve your way through the highs and lows of a sound. Using this dynamically controllable electronic "chisel", you can create dramatic effects as you focus on the high or low frequencies in a sound, simulate analog subtractive synthesis techniques ...
Comb Filters: It lets you add power and resonance to a sound. As one user said, "I use it to add oomph to the bass." Others: "I make short staccato sounds into continuous sounds by increasing the resonance." "You can also use it to change pitch and timbre. It's wild!"
Delays: It lets you create any type of delay line from echo to reverberation to phase shift. You can create classic delay effects, with echoes trailing off into the distance, or original and distinctive effects. From various users: "I use random timings of the echoes to create a confused conversation effect." "What's really great is that you can control the timing of the reverberent images." "I use very fast delays very close to the attack of a sound to soften the attack." "Using a reverse amplitude distribution, you can make sounds jump out at you."
Doppler: It simulates the effect of a sound source moving around you in space. Using extreme settings, you can create remarkable effects, for example the sound that results from a sound source whizzing around your head. You can transform sounds through loudspeaker modulation, create unusual vibrato effects.
Freezing: It lets you freeze a sound in time and then vary the sound by scrubbing through it and creating loops of different sizes at different pitches.
Pitch Accum: It lets you create two distinct 'shadows' of a sound at different transposition levels and at different delay intervals, then modulate those sounds in different ways.
Reson: It lets you create a wide range of sound transformations from delicate enhancement to dramatic changes in timbre.
Shuffling: It lets you create a distinctive resonance or reverberation, fill an audio space with overlapping fragments of a sound, turn a single voice into a crowd.
