Soaring melodies fuel a music time machine launching the listener to the top of a world yet discovered. Reminiscent of the early works of Sasha and BT,
My Piano's uplifting melody, combined with a funky, asymmetrical bass line creates a progressive, feel-good vibe on the floor while providing a memorable
hook to take home until you next adventure in club land.

Killer Progressive Tribal House from Spain's BeatFreak Recordings. Dark Iberican beast, dense pulsing basslines, it doesn't get much better than this Black Magic!

../ IK Announces CSR-1: Classik Studio Reverb
Digital reverbs modeled after high-end classics available this Summer
IK Multimedia
introduced CSR-1: Classik Studio Reverb, a suite of various reverbs modeled after classic high end studio reverb hardware masterpieces.
CSR-1 offers a suite of reverbs that are modeled to the exact sound of four popular classics with the advantage of full editing control to perfectly fit any musical need.
The four reverbs include: Classik Hall / Room, Classik Ambience, Classik Plate, and Classik Inverse, each with its own interface
and parameters.
CSR-1 offers 2 operating modes for each of the four algorithms: Easy and Advanced. In Easy mode the user will be able to quickly
edit the most important parameters instantly. In Advanced mode the user will have full access to more than 50 reverb parameters,
including completely assignable Matrix Modulations and Macros.
Matrix Modulation allows for any of the reverb parameters to be controlled by two internal LFOs and two internal Envelope generators.
This offers the ability to create complex and articulated reverb effects that can go way beyond convention. All Matrix Modulations are
completely user definable. Macros allow for simultaneous control (with a single slider) over many reverbs parameters, with different depth and polarity for very smooth
morphing between different reverberant spaces. Any parameter can be automated via your DAW/Sequencer's automation, with full and seamless
integration allowing efficient and convenient use of many of today's most advanced control surfaces.
CSR-1 will be available in the 3rd quarter of 2005 and will have an MSRP of $399. CSR-1 will support all the most popular plug-in platforms
in both WindowsXP and MacOS X including VST, RTAS, AU and DX. A TDM version for ProTools systems will be available by the 4th quarter of 2005..
CSR-1 By IK Multimedia
The Future: IK has been on a tear recently with several product announcements at NAMM and Musik Messe.
IK seems to think that the industry needs yet another software reverb plug-in...for $400 beans, we don't. However, if the routing matrix and LFO
modulations are even half as cool as they're touting, then this could be worth at least a demo download.
