SloTone - A new slice software

   SloTone is a new slice software, a kind of improved version of EcolooP with a single Slot. 3 versions are now available, SloTone_Organizer and SloTone_Player.

   The Ultralite version is just a rompler / expander of SloTone (without keyboard and Slice view on the waveform). It's the last one of these and participates to the KVR DC 2018 during the septembers month. A next article will arrive soon in this English blog about the Ultalite version. Speak about the Organizer and Player version now...

     If one allows you to organize Midi Mobiles soundbanks as its name suggests, the second allows you to play them with a more or less similar graphical interface, you can display the waveforms and find them there 128 slices attached to the sound!
     a kind of 128 Step seq function that can go up to 128 steps based on midi quantization grids can help you stripping your old sounds on new tempos and model them in a more or less random way by using templates and possibilities of reindexing and index randomization.
Some midi files will be used to encapsulate your melodic rhythmic loops...

    The FX functions are certainly rudimentary (Low pass filter with resonance and stereo phase adjustment / Gain / pan). Waiting for others that will be grafted in the FX part (do not look by checking FX, they are not yet present in these versions)
      Compared to EcolooP, SloTone consumes much less CPU and loads much faster at startup. All information is encapsulated in Slices data listed in text files appended to the .wav sound.

       SloTone Player can be loaded on multiple instances of the same plugin in your Host sequencer and SloTone Organizer will preferably be used in Stand Alone mode with possibility of reassigning slices by using a conceptual right click menu on the waveform...
SloTone_Organizer



      3 sound banks are delivered with the software (Polytron, Deep electro vol.1, Midi Mobiles Orchestra - Percussion) and will allow you to take in hand rather quickly the interface with already prepared sounds…
     Larger banks of sounds will bloom periodically on the site and help you decorate your productions out of inspiration with more original sounds..

In our workshop factory 
Slug of sounds ... Our volunteers
will always be at your fingertips
to enhance your
new bank wishes
sounds ready for use.
Get involved in production!

Nous avons besoin de vous !







                          
  • Soundbank made for SloTone ( - click to download - ) :
    • Polytron : the grain of monotron in polyphonic version 
    • Deep Electro vol.1 : a disappeared soundbank we are not sure of having permission to exploit the sounds . But since we could not contact the editor ... (To be continued)
    • Midi Mobiles Orchestra - Percussions : It's MMO - Winds that preceded it compatible EcolooP (soon SloTone maybe). We now have its percussive counterpart! Still with the free sounds of the University of Iowa we thank you very much
Hoping that there is at least 2 out of 3 in this beautiful trio here the next days ...

We also have unofficial patches but we will strive to keep them to avoid creating a copyright until next order...
