Cableguys has updated the Curve virtual synthesizer instrument for Windows and Mac to version 2.1.

Curve 2.1 brings an important bug fix for Curve’s aliasing mode plus some minor other fixes.

Also, we’ve improved the syncing of Curve’s presets with the online preset library—the major change, besides a speedup, is that with Curve 2.1 also your private presets will be backed up online.

If you ever set up a new computer, simply click “Sync” and not only your public presets and ratings, but also your private presets will be in place again (given you synced them before, of course).

Curve 2 for Windows and Mac (VST/AU/RTAS) costs 119 EUR / $159 USD. It is also included in the Cableguys Bundle, priced at 149 EUR / $199 USD. Prices incl. VAT.

Cableguys has released version 2.0.6 of its Curve software synthesizer instrument for Windows and Mac.

Curve 2 is our “superb synth with slick customisable waveforms and a brilliant cloud-based preset library. The addition of multistage envelopes makes a huge difference to the sort of sounds Curve 2 can make, and nudges it into the same league as instruments costing much more.” (ComputerMusic, January 2013)

The new version fixes a bug with hanging notes, which could occur with legato and mono modes.

Curve also has many presets up for download via Cableguys’ online preset database, which was recently upgraded to a faster server.

Simply hit “Sync” from within Curve 2 (demo or full version), get a coffee, and a bit later Curve will contain more than 117 pages of presets!

You’ll get “everything from thunderous dubstep bass wobbles to shimmering pads, advanced, complex sequences and eerie effects.” (MusicTech Magazine, November 2012)

This includes quality patches by preset designers such as Michael Kastrup, Pluginguru, Xenos Soundworks and community designers Konrad, Earworm, EdT, to name a few.

Curve 2 (VST/AU/RTAS) is available to purchase for 119 EUR / $159 USD incl. VAT.

Cableguys has announced the release of PanCake 2, a freeware panning effect plug-in for Windows and Mac.

PanCake is an innovative plugin that allows you to create flexible pan modulations.

New in version 2: A precise display of channel left/right volume for helpful visual control, an option to trigger the LFO via MIDI notes, a dry/wet control, plus a redesigned interface.

PanCake 2 features

• Creative Modulation Tool: Create complex pan modulations with ease.
• Unique Waveform Drawing Capabilities: Construct your own modulation curves in a very intuitive manner. Waveforms can be easily drawn using soft or hard control points, thus producing gentle transitions or sharp bends in the waveform.
• Customized Waveforms: Up to 10 customized waveforms can be stored.
• LFO Speed: LFO speed can be set free-running from 0.02 Hz to 5.24 kHz. It can also be set in rhythmic units synced to the host sequencer, from a fast 1/128 note modulation up to 32 bars.
• Always in Sync: The LFO will always stay in sync, even when you make tempo changes in your host software, or jump ahead to different parts of your track.
• Complete Parameter Control via Automation: Absolutely everything in PanCake can be automated. Even the shape of the modulating waveform can be automated. And if you want to use more than four modulation curves in a song, you can automate the plugin to switch between them.
• New in version 2: A precise display of channel left/right volume for helpful visual control, an option to trigger the LFO via MIDI notes, a dry/wet control, plus a redesigned interface.

PanCake 2 is available as a freeware plugin for Windows and Mac (VST/AU/RTAS).
