The Sound Guy has announced the release of SFX Machine Pro v1.0, the latest, and most advanced, member of the SFX Machine family of audio multi-effects plug-ins for Mac OS X and Windows. It comes with over 300 effects, including more than 50 new effects. In addition, a modular Preset Editor allows users to create their own effects from scratch.
The plug-in provides Tempo Sync, which matches LFO frequencies and delay times to the host sequencer's tempo, and it includes an output limiter, a new interface, and twice as much delay memory as SFX Machine RT. Automated parameter control is possible via a simple "MIDI Learn" interface, and a Randomize button allows quick experimentation.
SFX Machine Pro has an extensive collection of effects, from the conventional to the bizarre, allowing it to serve as a "swiss army knife" of audio utilities.
SFX Machine Pro costs $199; It is available in VST and Audio Unit formats for Mac OS X, and VST format for Windows. Demo versions are available.
