Sinevibes has released an interactive multi-effect designed exclusively for KORG NTS-3 kaoss pad. A unique plugin, Quarta lets you process audio using four different algorithms configured as a 2×2 grid on the device’s XY pad, including multi-mode filters, comb filters, phaser, frequency shifter, and more.
With a wide selection of carefully-calibrated effects, as well as multiple ways for how to control their parameters, Quarta is an essential and highly addictive tool for live performance and experimentation.
For each zone, Quarta offers a multitude of parameter control modes such as custom fixed value, manual control via horizontal or vertical axis, as well as tempo-synchronized animation with different curves and durations. Both the effect type and the parameter value can also be independently randomized on each XY pad activation. With its rich, desktop-quality algorithm collection and vast parameter control possibilities, Quarta turns the NTS-3 kaoss pad into an absolute dream performance effects machine.
Quarta features
- Up to four separate stereo effects, activated via four zones on the XY pad.
- 10 effect algorithms selectable per each XY pad zone: Low-Pass, High-Pass, Band-Pass, Notch, Peaking, Phaser, Comb Positive, Comb Negative, Frequency Shifter, Resampler.
- Individual parameter mapping per each effect type, ensuring perfectly musical results.
- Multiple parameter modes selectable per each XY pad zone: fixed, random, X or Y axis, plus tempo-synchronized animation.
- High-resolution parameter filtering and fade envelopes, silent plugin initialization.
Quarta is available to purchase for $29 USD.
