Zynaptiq has announced the immediate availability of PITCHSHIFT and PITCHSHIFT PRO, their new pitch shifting plug-ins. They tell us that, built on the company's extensive and renowned pitch and time processing expertise, both tiers of this high-end processor are available now from the Zynaptiq website as well as authorized resellers world-wide. Here's more details in their own words...
Pitch-Shifting, zynaptified.
PITCHSHIFT is the ultimate pitch-shifting plug-in for music production, sound design and post production. It combines multiple high-quality pitch algorithms, ranging from the classic delay-line design to advanced resynthesis and state-of-the-art hybrid processing.The plug-in is available in two tiers: the three-algorithm PITCHSHIFT for mono and stereo duties, and the six-algorithm PITCHSHIFT PRO, which supports up to 16 channels of phase-synchronous multi-channel processing for immersive workflows.
Whether you're adding a fifth or octave to a guitar or vocal, adjusting the pitch of a loop to fit your project, making monster voices and alien machinery, or adjusting the pitch of a film mix for frame rate conversion, PITCHSHIFT delivers maximum quality with minimum effort!Core Features
Both tiers of PITCHSHIFT share the following features:
• HYBRID, RESYNTHESIS, and STRETCH pitch algorithms.
• +- 12 semitones of pitch shift in 1 cent increments.
• +- 12 semitones of formant shift in 1 cent increments.
• Formant shift can be linked to pitch shift for formant correction.
• Optimizations for SFX, DRUMS, MIXED and SMOOTH signals for the HYBRID
algorithm.
• Control over overlap factor, window type, and formant strength of the HYBRID
algorithm.
• Control over transient processing strength for each of the SFX, DRUMS, MIXED and
SMOOTH optimizations.
• Dry/wet mix control with LP/HP filtering for the wet signal path.
• All controls can be controlled via MIDI, including the previous/next preset and load/save
commands.
• Scalable vector GUI with zoom.
• Optional double precision processing for the HYBRID algorithm.
• Unique DISPERSION parameter for the HYBRID algorithm, which modulates the phase
per frequency per channel for effects ranging from a subtle increase in dimensionality to
diffused and modulated timbres.
• JITTER parameter for the RESYNTHESIS algorithm, which adds random modulation per
channel.
PRO Features
PITCHSHIFT PRO brings the following additional features to the table:
• Additional CONFORM, GRANULAR, and LPC pitch algorithms.
• RESYNTH and LPC modes for the CONFORM algorithm.
• SMOOTH, TIGHT and CYCLIC modes for the GRANULAR algorithm, with control over
cycle length and optional drop-sample Lo-Fi sample rate conversion.
• Extended +- 24 semitones formant shift range for the CONFORM and LPC
algorithms.
• Phase-synchronous multi-channel support for up to 16 channels.
• Dedicated Channel Setup page with bypass, mute and solo per channel.
SpecificationsPITCHSHIFT and PITCHSHIFT PRO support all common sampling rates from 44.1kHz to 192kHz, depending on available CPU resources, and run as 64-bit AAX Native, AU, and VST 3. PITCHSHIFT supports mono and stereo processing, PITCHSHIFT PRO supports up to 16 channels.
The plug-ins require macOS 10.15.x Catalina or newer, on Intel & Apple Silicon processors, and Windows 10 or newer, on Intel and AMD processors.
PITCHSHIFT and PITCHSHIFT PRO use PACE copy protection, requiring a free ilok.com account, and can be activated to the hard drive of your computer or an iLok 2 or newer USB dongle.
The plug-ins are single-seat licensed, but support dual concurrent activations for convenience.
Pricing and Availability:
PITCHSHIFT and PITCHSHIFT PRO are available from the Zynaptiq website and authorized resellers worldwide now, at an SRP of USD 169/EUR 179* (PITCHSHIFT) and USD 279/EUR 309* (PITCHSHIFT PRO).
Users of PITCHSHIFT can upgrade to PITCHSHIFT PRO at USD 109/EUR 119 via the Zynaptiq website at any time.
