Discord3 Now Available...

As the title says. Discord3 is now available for purchase in the AD store. Hit it.

Note the following: as we discussed here a couple months ago, this release, on the Mac side, is Intel only. No PPC version. Also, the 64-bit versions aren't done yet. Gonna be a couple weeks on those. One piece of good news for the AU users is that this AU (and all others following it) has MIDI Learn just like the VSTs always have. So that's fun.

Anyhow, let me know if you've got any issues, complaints, praise, comments, whatever.

Not to contradict my partner in audio crime, but if you've got any issues, complaints, etc. sending them to AD's support email address is more likely to inspire a useful response than posting them here.

I know, right? Apple changed the PackageMaker significantly with the last Xcode update, and we didn't discover this until yesterday, when we tried to make the OSX installer and our normal scripts didn't work at all.

We have to take some time to figure out the new system and roll a new OSX installer. In the meantime, it is what it is. As I said to an Apple engineer last night, "please sir, may I have another?"

Wow. This one's really amazing to me. Integrated it right into a song I'm working on. (I have a new rule until the album[s] are done: not allowed to work on a new piece of music until the current one is done. It's torture, but it's getting results.)

I used it to give a subtle hallucinatory treatment to a kind of ersatz marimba ensemble in a BP song called "On Set/Onset." It's a marimba ensemble without any actual marimbas, just marimba-like sounds (primarily stainless steel water bottles.)

Using Discord3, I was able to "lift it off the ground." Like it sounds like the marimbas are floating above the floor, hovering in front of you.

No, I'm not high. OK. I might be exaggerating a bit. But I'm not high. Swear to God. OK. OK. I'm a little high.

Anyway, I will post a link shortly to a soundcloud to demonstrate what I'm talking about.

My main point here: Discord 3 is a lovely tool I will cherish forever.

Thanks so much for being so smart.

Fuckin' Adam and Chris. How do *they* work?

Yeah thanks for pitching a bone to the sad fucks that stay home Friday nights.

One Q -- I'm trying to do one of those 'fake 12 string effects' so I set the delay to zero, shift to 1200 cents and I cant get the shift mod to go to zero -- it pops back and forth between -7 and +7 cents.

I actually liked that the authorizer didn't load itself automatically - it always hangs for a while as it loads and I never quite know what's going on.

@chaircrusher: ctrl-click (cmd-click on the Mac) to center any control except the numerical ones.

@bleen: I'm kind of torn myself. It's handy for me, because I have to install the plugs like 55,220 times before they're released, and not having to deal with that one extra step is pleasing. Wasn't sure how people would respond to it, though. We tried to make it as obvious as possible, though, with a DMG instead of a ZIP and the graphic background and everything.

No complaints yet, anyhow.

I listened to the granular chaos all day. Amazing effect. Just running loops through it and adding more until it's just a pulsing robot gurgle. Where have you been all my life.
