What is it?
The Pitchwheel plug-in freely alters the pitch of a sound without changing it's length. It has a large, easy to use dial and simple parameters making it a fast and creative effect unit. It can give fine tuning control from fractions of a semi-tone to huge multi-octave pitch swings.
Through the use of MIDI 8 note chords can be played, with very low extra resource cost.
The user pointer acts as a desired pitch change, and the actual pitch is produced by gravity and inertia controls. Pitchwheel moves towards the desired pitch at sample accuracy, enabling nice transitions without stepping artifacts. A DJ turntable feel can be created with some play, but the difference here is that the tempo remains the same, so your track can go on without sequence timing changes.
You can of course use it static, to create odd alien sounds, and character changes. Dopler effects can be easily simulated, or just use it to alter background atmospheres in real-time to get them just right.
The stereo image is kept intact on all pitches, without movement across the channels.
Once you start feeding your sample collection though Pitchwheel, you start to think it's completely natural to bend and twist sounds around freely, and wonder why you couldn't do this before!
Try the evaluation copy now, because above all - it's great fun!
