SoundHack introduces Pvoc Kit plugins for Mac and Windows

La Jolla, CA, July 11, 2011 - SoundHack is pleased to announce SoundHack Pvoc Kit,

which combines time stretching, pitch shifting, soundfile looping and phase

distortion into four easy to use, sonically rich plugins.

The plugins of the Pvoc Kit bundle are:

+pitchsift - a pitch shifter and MIDI harmonizer with spectral gating.

+spiralstretch - a multilayer, realtime 1x to 100x time stretcher with granular and

phase vocoder stretching.

+phasemash - ring modulation, robot sounds, ambient washes, spectral scrambling.

+pvocloop - a four-voice soundfile looper with time stretching, pitch shifting and

MIDI control.

All of the plugins of Pvoc Kit extend the classic granular synthesis and phase

vocoder techniques to create rich new sonic textures. The plugins each have a small

number of powerful controls designed to quickly access a large variety of sounds.

Pvoc Kit can be automated by MIDI controller messages. They are currently running as

VST, RTAS and Audio Unit on Mac OS X and VST on Windows. 64-bit is under

development. The list price is $99.00 and can be ordered for direct download from

www.soundhack.com.
