#Unfiltered audio sandman pro review full#
*Special note: Sandman Pro takes full advantage of MPE technology, and is fully controllable via Roli's Lightblock, which allows for a truly interactive music making and playing experience. This can be applied to any sound as well. Modulation is a scary word for those who are in the beginner or even intermediate level producer, but thankfully, Unfiltered Audio really makes things fun and easy to understand. Admittedly, a lot of the presets that use heavy modulation are almost unusable in most cases, or at least when fully wet, but after randomly connecting various ins and outs, I created what I call a rhythmic enhancer, that when set to about 36% wet, really made the drum loop come alive. Why would you want to use this? As I've said many times throughout this review, you can quickly take a simple delay and create complex sounds with relative ease.
Step Sequencer: A modulator that cycles through up to 16 manually chosen values. Sample and Hold Noise: Chooses random values at the chooses frequency rate. Macro Control: Allows you to control many different parameter changes with one knob. Input Follower: Allows you to easily "sidechain" parameters to the incoming audio stream LFO: Simple Sine/Saw/Square/Triangle waves that are great for classic envelope style parameter modulationĪmplitude - Controls the modulation depth Below is a list of all the modulation types: In addition to that, each parameter in Sandman Pro has an in/out port that allows you to connect anything to, well, anything. Speaking of the modulation capabilities, Sandman Pro's Modulation System is incredibly easy and straightforward to use but allows one to create seriously next-level delays that can be controlled with the different modulation types. The ability to modulate the frozen loop adds further design possibilities. Why would you want to use this? This is great for creating complex textures and morphing sounds, that create movement in your music that you just cannot get via regular delay plugins. When activated, Sandman Pro's large waveform display with stop showing real-time information, and will instead show the contents of the frozen buffer. So what about that Sleep Buffer? What is that exactly? Sleep Buffer This is Sandman's signature feature and it's a frozen delay buffer with tons of control. No Echo: This isn't a delay, it's actually a mode, and in this mode, the input is written directly to the sleep buffer. Reverse: This mode provides a reverb delay effect using windowed grains. Multi-tap: A 16 tap delay line that is similar to Modern Instant, in that all controls can be modulated without artifacts. In the manual, this is literally the explanation for one of the parameters of the Glitch Shifter: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Glitch Shifter - This can produce vibrant color explosions, alien drums, swirling echo clusters, and more. Pitch Shifter - Delay based pitch-shifting algorithm that uses more vintage micro delays.
Modern Instant - Uses granular windowing to create delays that can change times instantly without pitch or click artifacts. Below is a list of each delay type:Ĭlassic Tape - Emulates classic tape delays, and is the closest in behavior to the original Sandman Each of the delay types has its own set of parameters, and each parameter is easily modified by automation or the modulation section. How does it work? Using an intuitive interface, any and all parameters are either instantly accessible or just a single click away.
