Full Description

Serious Power for Native Audio Workstations

Mobility

PowerCore is the open DSP-platform for rackmount-quality processing inside any VST or AudioUnit compatible audio application such as Logic, Cubase, Nuendo or Performer. The new PowerCore FireWire enables laptop

users and professionals constantly on the move to take advantage of the wide selection of professional tools.

Power

Even complex mixes are possible with just a laptop and one PowerCore FireWire, as it is offering almost twice the power of the PCI-card version! The unique combination of a floating-point PowerPC with 4 Motorola DSPs ensures tight integration into the native world � at the same time maintaining all of the advantages that DSPs offer for pristine signal processing.

Quality

PowerCores software and hardware provide the utmost quality and a future-proof design. Extremely power demanding tools like Mastering Dynamics, Reverbs and other professional virtual processors run on PowerCore without draining the host computers resources.

Tools

PowerCore FireWire delivers an array of powerful tools right out of the box. The nine virtual processors included feature the most complete collection of dynamics processing available, including a virtual Finalizer (Master X), Vintage Compression and a Voice Channel Strip. Not to mention the two TC-quality Reverbs, Modulation Effects, EQ, Synthesis...

Flexibility

Aside from the included software, PowerCore users may choose from the growing number of optional TC and 3rd party tools, featuring renowned brands such as Waldorf, Sony, TC-Helicon, DSound - and many more to come. Naturally, the PCI-card and the FireWire version of PowerCore may be used in the same system!

24 / 7�C

Virtual Limiting Amplifier

Convincing vintage compression and limiting using one of the most desired vintage models for POWERCORE! 24/7�C was inspired by one of the vintage processors synonymous with classic dynamics processing for mixing and mastering. This Plug-In recreates the details of the sound and user interface of this hardware processor as closely as possible, delivering virtual vintage at its best. The user interface is simple and straight-forward: increasing the input will drive the limiter depending on the selected ratio. Even the famous 4-Button-mode was implemented. A special new feature is an Auto-Gain sensing for the Output parameter, that adjusts the output depending on the program material. Four stereo or up to six mono instances of 24/7�C run on just one of POWERCORE`s DSPs, without taxing the CPU.

Features:

� Modelled Algorithm

� 4, 8, 12, 20 and "4-Button" Ratios

� Super-Fast Attack and Release

� Adjustable Auto-Output Gain

� 24/96 processing

� 6 mono or 4 stereo per DSP in 48 kHz

Classic Reverb Processor

The new CLASSIC VERB enhances the out-of-the-box reverb flexibility of PowerCore significantly! This new processor adds the other category of warm, lush reverb effects often associated with big expensive hardware processors to the effects menu. It is a whole different way to create the effect compared with our usual reverb philosophy, and the natural sounding reverbs provided by MEGA REVERB.

Features:

� Different design and sound from MEGA REVERB

� 16 different types: Classic Hall, Vocal Studio, Room, Hall, Drum Box, Drum Room, Large Cathedral, Ambience, Live Reverb, Spring, Plate 1, Plate 2, Club, Living Room, Concert Hall

� Lo and Hi Color Offset Parameter

� Hi-Cut Filter

� 24/96 processing

� loads of presets

� 2 per DSP in 48 kHz

Hi-End Reverb

The unique algorithms are based on years of ongoing research and the core technology of the TC Electronic M5000 hi-end studio processor. With even better diffusion, denser tails and more realistic room impressions than ever before, MEGA REVERB provides the ultimate plug-in reverb solution for POWERCORE.
