Fader Hub and Axiom V2 Preview Demo at NAMM 2023
This Plugin should get some more recognition these days, it's so powerful
Thanks!
oh man, whish there would be a hardware version of this! I would instantly put this in my mixing rack
You can put a PC or Mac in your Rack! :-)
does this have a modular window view... ie. with audio/midi wiring displayed?
No, it is all "pre-wired", it's all straightforward (you can have a look at the signal flow diagram in the manual)
@@bluecataudio k thx
does it need alot of palm muting because my strings be going crazy after i tap once
Yes, this one is pretty difficult to get right. Even Joe Satriani had trouble playing it! 😄
This looks interesting, love all your plugins btw. I'm trying to find the best method to use ableton live and pro tools together and want to send midi from Ableton to Pro tools, or trigger the midi from pro tools from ableton, not sure the best method yet, going to download the demo.... but how does it work with automation? like if i have automation going on in ableton will this send it to an automation parameter in pro tools? thx in advance! look forward to playing with this
I believe there's room for improvement in the design of this plugin. Unfortunately, it feels like some of the basic functions have been made unnecessarily complicated. For example, it would be much more efficient if the plugin could automatically scan all VST and AU files, similar to what Nomad Factory's Magma does. This would save time and eliminate the need to manually search through the VST folder every time. Additionally, incorporating built-in LFOs and envelopes to modulate parameters would be a significant enhancement. Again, taking inspiration from Magma, this would provide more flexibility and control directly within the plugin, streamlining the workflow. I hope these suggestions are helpful and can be considered for future updates. Thanks!
Thanks for the suggestion. A couple of them are already in the todo list!
BTW, will we be able to adjust mic positions, mic angles and mic distance from speaker? And also distance between 2 or 3 speakers in Spinal Vibe? All these little details have profound effect on rotary speaker sound. Distances and angles of the microphones. I hope you go as super nerdy with Spinal Vibe as you did with your other plugins. Lets have all possible options and configurations, as usual.
Spinal Vibe is definitely nerdy, but as usual it's not "physical" modeling, so there is no "microphone" in there, but many other options to tweak the effect. Wait and see! :-)
@@bluecataudio that's unfortunate, as different placement of mics angles and distances allows for greater tonal versatility.. oh well. can never have perfect things, I guess.
Where are we with Spinal Vibe at the moment? I had plans to use it on summer Floyd tribute tour, but the release got delayed like hell. It's very unfortunate. Was looking forward to imitate two Doppolas sound with it, because there are not many plugins where you can run two or three speakers at once, also pan them hard left and right and adjust the microphones positions. Lets go already!
The plug-in is working well, but we have indeed had to delay our release because of other updates in the works! Definitely looking forward to finally unleashing it!
@@bluecataudio How much longer, do you think? Not Xmas or next year Q1, I hope.
@@JannichkiMoyer It's hard to tell, but hopefully soon!
Lotsa buttons to handle on foot. Wish there was a foot controller available.
There are lots of MIDI foot controllers available that work well with Axiom. But for a custom one in the plans as a DIY project!
Have you thought about hosting the plugins in Gig Performer? It's truly amazing--changed my entire virtual guitar rig--and there's a free download to try it out. It has crazy levels of MIDI control, scripting, an active and responsive user community, and so forth. No I'm not a shill, just a guy who paid for the software he loves
Looks great. How does it work with third party plugins that are used in an Axiom patch? I have several that use Soundtoys and Liquidsonics plugins inside Axiom.
The easiest way is to simply map the plug-in parameters to macros so that they are automatically mapped to the right MIDI controller when switching preset like in the video!
Audio Gridder?
That's a bit different.
@@bluecataudio it certainly is. Audio Gridder seems to be something no one else has replicated, is it something Blue Cat could look at doing a bit of a Connector expansion for?
@@Fwuzeem It's not in the plans at the moment but who knows! There is already quite a bit you can do with Connector today.
@@bluecataudio thanks for being transparent. I'd say it's a good call considering all development on Audiogridder has now stopped and people are looking for an alternative moving forward
wish it wasn't so difficult to get worked out, not to mention the sync problem. If someone could make something with a lot of dev, we might see a working software for all.
It's interesting watching digital-only players slowly move back toward real, tactile amplifiers, one step at a time.
That's actually moving forward (not back!). And since the early days of (hardware) digital multi effects, one of the main challenges has been to offer a proper tactile interface instead of horrible menus & sub-menus. While on stage, it's "be quick or be dead"! 🙂
Care to share schematics?
Sure, we'll do a couple of blog posts about it! Electronics is very simple. It's based on a Teensy microcontroller, so the logic is mostly software :-).
Looking forward to more info. I would like to try this myself.
Cool! I didn't understand - is this a homemade controller? Thanks
Yes it is! Since people seem to be interested, we'll do some blog posts about this DIY controller.
Wjat are the actual effects chain in analogue?anyone??
We need to know how to make this DIY controller ASAP 🤘
Tu m'étonnes ! Moi aussi je suis fan ;) (j'ai d'ailleurs posté sur audiofanzine à ce propos)
Will write some blog posts about it to share the information. It's not very complicated to build your own!
Nice. I use BlueCat Audio's Patchwork to use patches from different vendor's guitar plugins, and I control it all with a KMI SoftStep2; I have several maps that include patches from multiple plugins, and I can do more MIDI actions if I want/need. I also make use of Patchwork's utilities to provide noise gates, gain, etc. for adjusting my patches for unity gain, lead boosts, etc. Works great!
Thanks! It is indeed one of the goal of our hosts to be able to aggregate multiple plug-ins and make them work as if they were a single entity!
Wow.
Your product is amazing. The sound and the rest. Thank you!
Thanks!!
I just picked up the Axiom demo. Amazing sound, how could I not buy it? Alice Cooper! I was 18 when that album came out, fun to hear a slice. Saw them on that album tour in Chicago, with the Stooges. And the rest of your samples, interesting. Nice playing and tutorial!
Thanks!
mac only ? this is apity as seems very cool
There might be other solutions for windows, but this one is indeed Mac only (although PatchWork does run on both Windows and Mac)
Awesome !
Great product
Thank you!
Amazing tones good job bluecat Would u recommend a good budget audio interface that has zero latency for this plugin
There are many available these days. The best model depends on your operating system (not all interfaces have a low latency under Windows).
I just love the possibilities for control. This is amazing. Never knew this existed until now. For shame. Dare I say you guys could spend a little more on marketing?
Thanks! We do communicate about it, but it does not hurt if you spread the word too :-)
Is this the most amazing plugin I have ever seen? I say, YES! Whoa and WOW! How is it I overlooked this?
Thanks!
look at those lagging :|
How to set it up and then record it together with a band? do i need a mixer for that? or just connect everthing into a DAW? from what i know is that a DAW can only play a single instrument, it'll be a problem if guitars and drums both use plugins and we cant play together. much appreciated if question is answered
You can load PatchWork as a plug-in into a DAW and do the exact same thing within the DAW. Most DAWs let you play and record multiple instruments at the same time these days. As a simple alternative, you can also use Fader Hub instead of PatchWork and load/record all your virtual instruments inside Fader Hub: www.bluecataudio.com/Products/Product_FaderHub/
Ok so I know you read here so will give you thoughts after giving the plugin a real go. Well, this is by far the best 'overall' delay plugin on the market. The stuff it can do is insane, for want of a better word. It's VERY powerful. My gripes? I have never seen a delay plugin before that doesn't use the traditional 1/8, 1/8d or t, 1/4 etc divisions, and I don't know if I can get used to it over time, as my brain is wired to a certain way of thinking, and to be completely honest, I don't understand WHY you have taken this approach or at least not given us the options of the standard subdivisions. Please consider this. Secondly, I think I have learned the plugin pretty well now in advanced GUI mode. However, I am a bit disappointed that I can't replicate a really nice distorted tape delay extreme feedback effect, well at least I have been unsuccessful thus far. On Windows, you can put a plugin called analogic delay on the tap insert (via jbridge as it's an old 32 bit plug), set the delay of that plugin to zero and just drive the feedback, as that plugin was written to mimic Logic's superb sounding feedback saturation. On Mac, well.... I mean I have yet to find the right combo of plugins to help me achieve that sound, and I really think a vintage saturation mode should be built in. Thirdly, I can't see a way to modulate parameters within the actual plugin. Sure, I can use a filter effect on a "late reply" that has its own modulation, but then I keep having to go to third party, when it should be built in. Your own filter inserts are just static which is really disappointing. That said, adding a talking modulator synced to host tempo to a reply was pretty nuts, it sounded so awesome (audiothing orb filter). Crazy stuff in the best possible way. For a delay that is so highly priced and is SO powerful otherwise, I am just more than a little surprised that these things have been overlooked. It's still. a buy, but as a previous customer I am going to wait for the usual email to tell me there are customer discounts available, as 200 AUD is just too much. It's also frustrating me no end that I can't seem to change my registered email address and that email I previously used is LONG gone from an OLD ISP, I switched ISP last year, so I'd be missing any blue cat customer offers *anyway*, and your support team did not answer my request to change my email to my new one that I sent about a month back, so yes, I am frustrated, and if I miss a sale I will be bummed.
pas mal, intéressant! Est-ce que vous avez essayé JackTrip?
Non, nous n'avons pas essayé. C''est un abonnement payant alors que notre solution ne nécessite que l'achat d'une license d'un logiciel que vous pouvez utiliser autant que vous voulez.
@@bluecataudio c'est payant seulement pour l'organisateur de la session. Avec un abonnement de 99$ par an je peux avoir autant de sessions que je veux avec jusqu'a 10 personnes en même temps par session. Il n'y a que mon abonnement annuel, les autres participent gratuitement. Son et image en haute définition et très convivial. Avec mon seul abonnement je peux ouvrir autant de studios virtuels que je veux en fonction des besoins de collaboration.
This is super cool!!
Thanks. Yeah, it's a lot of fun playing with these vu-meters!
Neat!
Yes !!!
This is great. Allen has such a nice touch. Still digging into the Axiom, it's soooooo deep!
Thank you! Don't get lost in Axiom though, it is indeed really deep :-)
This looks great. Is latency better than using AUNetSend and AuNetReceive?
Definitely much shorter - and it can be refined according to the connection and your needs.
This is awesome for using with plugins. But not that great when using multitimbral hardware such as an external synth or keyboard. All the knobs just send the same values to every channel. Regardless of how I set it up.
They should send values to a single channel if it is set in the output MIDI settings to a non-0 value.
does not work in Logic Pro! Only on the same channel strip. Nonsense!
It should work in Logic Pro. If you have any particular problem, feel free to contact support on the website.
Great job! I'm a straight up TUBE AMP guy all the way. However, it sounded good but great playing as well.
Thank you!
Sounds good! Great playing man !
Thanks! @TanguyKerleroux is a great guitar player!
Blue Cat always innovating and bringing the magic. Thank you for your wonderful instruments and effects.
Thank you!
Guillaume at Blue Cat Audio is always innovating and creating the finest instruments on the market. In the hands of any artist, it will automatically broaden their scope into new territory.
if I would like to mix can I use other Mac to do master bus to get low latency
Can you maybe elaborate about what you would like to do? You can indeed achieve very low latency over a local network and use several machines for mixing.
Very sweet playing, really enjoyed it. Great response from Fader Hub
Thanks!
Prometteur ! quelle latence avec la fibre ?
C'est variable en fonction de la distance et de la connexion, mais en général de 5 à 20 ms en dessous de 1000km, ce qui est parfait pour jouer à plusieurs (équivalent à une distance de moins de 7 mètres). Bien sûr le signal propre de chaque musicien n'a pas de latence.
@@bluecataudio Il ne te reste plus qu'à monter une plateforme qui permettra aux musiciens de jammer ensemble à les toutes heures du jour et de la nuit moyennant un abonnement...
Nope. Je ne suis pas fansdes abonnements. Ce système-ci permet justement de jammer n'importe quand avec qui l'on veut, sans AUCUN abonnement ni aucune limite!@@JudgeFredd
Does axiom V2 have the same two way communication features?
Yes, definitely, like all our other plug-ins/software. A video showing this feature is close to be released by the way :-)
Now all that's missing are LFOs/envelopes... like in "Multipass" to control plugin parameters. Then it would be a better alternative to Kilohearts (because of the possibility of integrating VSTs, which "Multipass" is missing..."). Then I would finally have the perfect multi-effects plugin! So I'll continue to use my beloved "Multipass" and hope for more good "Snapins" or maybe VST support at some point. But for those who don't need these functions, the MB-7 mixer is certainly the better alternative.
Could you do piezoelectric synth modelling or what about a model for other instruments that use piezo like erhu or autochord
I guess it could help better tones on synths, but it is not synthesizing/generating notes, it is only processing sounds.
Next level ISDN and VST CONNECT. Impressive
Thanks!
This is crazy. So much more control for applying selective effects to the frequency spectrum.
That's indeed pretty powerful!
