Rhythmiq uses A.I. to help you turn your tracks into a performance in a way that was previously thought impossible. Rhythmiq is fundamentally different from anything else you’ve seen. It allows you to re-shape your loops in real time and safely improvise with them while performing live. It’s your new ‘bandmate’ who learns from you. Ιt will boost your inspiration and it will help you create unique live-evolving compositions. Rhythmiq analyzes and understands your beats and instantly allows you to create new arrangements. You get unlimited, musically structured and fun rhythms, by turning a simple knob. Generate and save pattern variations, for instantly playable breaks, fills and build-ups. Enable the A.I. Beat Assistant and let it perform your loops in real-time. The Beat Assistant injects your beats with everything from nuanced micro-variations to musical, evolving changes. Although Rhythmiq uses ground-breaking A.I. technology, it is still controlled by you. Launch it while you are playing live or jamming in the studio, tell it how much variability you want and you will experience a new way to jam with your beats and find inspiration.
Mikron Delay has been inspired by the classic bucket brigade delays and tape delays of the past. We haven’t tried to emulate one of those classics in particular, but tried to capture the essentials of these devices that make them sound so incredibly fantastic. Instead of making the perfect emulation of one specific device that we admire, we made a ‘flexible vintage delay’: to give you the opportunity to use all the cool ‘tricks’ of those old machines to create your own old school tape or bucket brigade delay.
Mikron Orbiter was modeled after the effects of the Eminent 310 Unique electronic organ: chorus, tremolo and ensemble. Of which the ensemble effect is by far the most famous, in large part because it is not only the Eminent Unique that uses it. The strings of the Eminent organ were such a hit with musicians at the time that the ensemble section was reused to form the core of the Solina String Ensemble (rebranded in the United States as the ARP String Ensemble). A smart move. This affordable and easily to transport synthesizer became so popular that it was used by almost every band in the seventies, from Pink Floyd to Herbie Hancock. And not just the seventies, in later decades it can be also heard on many albums. The Cure, Kim Wilde, Abba, Brian Eno, Air and Gorillaz are just a few of its notable users.
Mikron Phaser was modeled after the legendary Small Stone Phaser, a stomp box effect designed by one of our all-time heroes: David Cockerell. The effect was made particularly famous by the French composer Jean Michel Jarre who used it extensively on his recordings as a synthesizer effect. But of course it was used by countless legendary bands on guitar as well. The Police, Led Zeppelin, do we need say more? If you ask us, Small Stone Phaser is without doubt the best phaser ever made. It has a smooth, vibrant seventies sound that will never grow old, and is equally suited for guitar and synthesizer, and let’s not forget the bass. While we tried to replicate the original sound of Small Stone Phaser as accurately as possible, we added a few modern details as well. First of all, it’s stereo. Secondly you can set not only the LFO rate and the ‘color’ of the phaser, but also adapt the center frequency, the degrees that the LFO’s will be out of phase, and how much the pitch will be modulated up and down. And finally the bass and treble knobs are a nice addition that can help sometimes to get the sound ‘just right’, to let it fit a little better in the mix.
Mikron Crusher gives you an easy way to add a little of the charm of the samplers from the 80s by reducing bit depth and sample rate. ‘Wabi-sabi’ as the Japanese call it: a small imperfection will make something much more interesting. Or use it to destroy your sound completely, if that’s more your cup of tea. Destruction can be definitively constructive, we would say. The controls are simple, the algorithm behind it isn’t.
Mikron Cascade is the perfect tool to create atmospheric, ambient and drone soundscapes. It diffuses any sound input into a lively, lush, warm ‘sound cloud’. The fine-tuned delay models are specifically designed to create organic cinematic atmospheres. A little detuning of the source material can build up interesting tensions. Play around with the density setting to go from distinct reflections to colored noise. Or freeze the input to build up resonating sounds. Mikron Cascade has been originally developed as a sound effect for the Cascade synthesizer. Thanks to its complex delay network a sound run through Mikron Cascade can develop over time, adding extra dimensions to it. Which makes it the ideal plugin for those who are looking for a high quality ambient reverb, but one with far more complexity in it than usual.
