CDex v1.70 beta 2

Software Description:

CDex can extract the data directly from an Audio CD, which is generally called an Audio CD Ripper or a CDDA utility. Of course you can do that also by recording through your sound-card.

However, recording by sampling the signal with your sound card implies that the signal is first has to be converted to an analog signal by the CD-ROM, which is fed into the sound-card and digitized by the sound-card.

In practically all situation the quality of the recording will be deteriorated (unless you have a CD-ROM that has a digital output of course). CDex on the other hand, is reading the digital audio data directly from the disc, which can be stored in either a WAV file or a MPEG (MP2 or MP3) sound file.

MidiKeys 1.6b3

Software Description:

You can use the computer keyboard to play MIDI notes, or click on the keys with the mouse. There is also an option to select a MIDI source and see incoming notes played on the keyboard.

The keys 'z' through ',' is the octave starting a middle C (note 60). The keys on the row above are flats, and the octave below is on the row starting with 'q' (and the digit row is that octave's flats).

In order to hear a sound when you press keys, you need to connect the MidiKeys output to a synthesizer of some sort. This can be either a softsynth like SimpleSynth or a hardware synth connected through a MIDI I/O box. MidiKeys has no way to produce sound on its own.

New in this version:

increased the octave offset range to -4 through +4 to encompass more MIDI notes
added Spanish localisation

Soundplant 26.1 Mac

Software Description:

Soundplant 26.1 is a self-contained digital audio performance program that turns your computer keyboard into a fully customizable sample-triggering device. It allows the assignment of sound files of unlimited size to virtually any keyboard keys, with no external devices needed and no MIDI involved. It can be used as a drum pad, to add a live track to an already made song, to mix together tracks in realtime, to create music or loops from scratch, to quickly sketch sound designs, to give new life to old sounds, or as a performance or installation tool. Because it is not a synthesizer and instead uses your own digital samples (it's a 'software sampler'), Soundplant is a virtually limitless electronic instrument. A simple graphic interface provides for drag-and-drop, point-and-click configuration of each key, including several options which control the way each sound is triggered, along with pitch, offsets, looping, volume, and panning. Sounds can be easily batch assigned across multiple keys at varying pitches and offsets, and keyboard configurations can be saved and loaded. Here is a list of features:

72 keyboard keys can be used to trigger sounds, all with low latency
drag and drop sound files on to keyboard keys for quick and easy key assignment
samples can be loaded to RAM for instant cueing, or played from disk, allowing for minimal RAM usage and unlimited sound length; RAM management can be controlled by the user
pitch adjust allows micro-tuning to the 100th of a semitone and a 10 octave range; easily batch assign the same sound to multiple keys at varying pitches with complete custom scale control
auto-'splice' pieces of a sound across multiple keys (for example, use this function to extract individual drum sounds from a drum loop); precise sound start and end offset control to the 100,000th of a second
memory-efficiently duplicate key configurations onto other keys using the same sample
realtime volume and panning control for each key
no MIDI needed or involved; only a sound card is required, preferably one compatible with DirectX
customizable sound triggering, allowing for looping, sustains, restarts, muting, pausing, and off-triggering
on-screen display of the keyboard can be color-coded to create visual metaphors; keys are highlighted as they play
a true performance program in which sounds can be played and triggered even while configuring, multiple instances of the program can be opened, and program window size can be scaled up or down
capable of playing 8 stereo or mono samples simultaneously (i.e., 8 * (L+R) = 16 channel polyphony) at 16-bit, 44.1 KHz mixed stereo output
freeware version plays .wav, .aif, and .au files; those who support this freeware will get an .mp3-playing registered version
saves and loads keyboard configurations as .keymap files; loads old keymaps from all previous versions of Soundplant
