January 2019, STIX V1.5 Released : We're proud to announce the release of version 1.5 of our acclaimed multi-synthesis StiX Drum Machine.
New in StiX 1.5 :
New oscillators options, new modulators features, new features (Choke, Drag'n'drop), new presets, new effect, and new sequencer options
Choke Pairs |
9 Choke pairs (HHop/HHcl, Toms Low/Hi, Percs 1/2, BD/Snare etc) | |
Midi Drag'n'Drop Pattern to DAW | You can now using D'n'D to export patterns in your Daw. In addition to Midi Live export/recording allowing you to control external hardware or software drum machines with StiX exceptional XoX sequencer | |
Compressor |
You can insert a compressor pre or post reverb in StiX stereo output. This compressor, inspired by DBX designs offers many compression types, from subtle to pumping. | |
Envelope time dividers |
3 new time dividers (factors) on all 3 envelopes are now available, especially fitted for the tightest drum sounds. You can now perform the fastest modulations on every targets (VCA, VCF, Osc freq. , or any other parameter) | |
Noise Filter & Noise Direct Out |
Noise filter : Oscillator 3 now have it's own filter when the direct out option is active. The Noise filter also has it's own Q parameter, and comes in two flavors : LFP or HPF. Noise Direct Out : This ability to bypass the main filter gives you access to new topologies like the TR-808 snares, which were impossible to achieve before. (Snare body goes to the main filter, while noise/snappyness bypass this filter). It also offers hundreds of different possibilities for new drum sounds. |
|
Sample Direct Out | This option allows you to keep the rich frequency content of samples, while adding traditional synthesis components using the analog oscillators, FM etc thru the main filter | |
Sample Start Offset | You can now define the sample start position with a simple offset knob. This gives a much wider sonic palette for each single sample of your collection | |
Sample Reverse Mode | Samples can be reversed. Combined with the Sample Start position offset, this option make any sample much more versatile. | |
Sample Name MouseOver | Use Mouse Over to display the full name of the sample used in oscillator 3 slot | |
LFO One Shot Mode |
You can now use both LFOs as additional envelopes with this mode. You can not only mod the curves of any of the 3 envelopes, but also replace any of them by the lfo one shot, and use this now free envelope to modulate any target parameter with complete control over it. | |
