Lockdown Composer V6.0 Release

Lockdown Composer V6.0 - Synths Galore

TRY THE NEW LITE EDITION

New Synths

We recently introduced the MEMBRANE SYNTH and METAL SYNTH to compliment the FM SYNTH. In V6.0, we have included three new synths:

• AM SYNTH
• PLUCK SYNTH
• BASE SYNTH

Creating and shaping sounds is now easier than ever before. In this release, we have expanded the oscillator params to include up to 18 settings, a significant increase from the default 4 oscillator types.

New Synth Patches

To celebrate these new synths, we are developing an increasing range of patches that highlight the diversity and versatility of these synths. Discover some amazing variations and create your own patches with ease using the updated INSTRUMENT MAKER (see later).

Embedded Synth Mode

To make best use of the new synths, patches and the Instrument Maker, we have changed the layout of the Player slightly to put everything at your fingertips. You can now switch between synths, patterns and instruments seamlessly,… all from within the same Player dialogue.

New FX Units

In V6.0, we have included a range of new FX Units in our default FX Pool, to add to the expanding range. This includes the fully featured, but compact 8-Channel PARAMETRIC EQ as well as the general-purpose ANALYSER, which you can slot into different parts of you FX chains:

• ANALYSER
• AUTO-WAH
• BIT-CRUSHER
• CHEBYSHEV
• CHORUS
• COMBFILTER
• GATE
• PARAMETRIC EQ
• PHASER
• PING-PONG
• VIBRATO

Also, don’t forget the recent addition of the awesome MULTIPRESSOR Unit. You can make use of these FX Units in any combination as part of the pre-configured shared racks, the MASTER rack or an unlimited number of SOLO racks, available against each of your tracks.

Instrument Maker

You can already create instruments by shaping and adapting existing instrument and synth patches and saving these into patterns within the Player. In V6.0, we have extended this capability to enable you to save your player patches with a single click. Save your sounds, together with the shaper and tuning settings. Your sounds can originate from synths, audio slices and a whole range of acoustic and electronic instruments.

The Instrument Shapers are now contained in their own extensible rack ... similar to the FX Racks on the Master Sequencer. You can choose from the growing list of FX Units in the FX Pool, providing a huge increase in sound shaping capabilities for each of your instruments ... and don't forget, the general-purpose rack automations feature we introduced in V4.0.

FREE LITE EDITION

To help you sample some of these awesome new features we have introduced a LITE (but MIGHTY) EDITION. It’s FREE,… simply register and start creating those amazing tunes.

Don’t forget the awesome new HOUSE and MOODY HOUSE Drum Kits we introduced recently and we have also included a range of performance and usability improvements in V6.0, including the ability to create, edit and resize sections, patterns and loops much more intuitively. You can now also play with your favourite audio units within docked or floating windows.
