STUNNING USER INTERFACE

IMPAKT’s spectacular user interface was designed with the composer and sound designer in mind, providing effortless control for complete customization. IMPAKT is all about user experience with the freedom to infinitely transform samples into awesome evolving instruments with endless possibilities.

The interface includes:

• “Multi-core Effect Sequencers” for real-time effect automation
• “Triggers” – 48 unique effect chains
• “Arpeggigater” – sequencer based gate effect
• “LFO” section to make things wobble
• “Wave” – additive/subtractive synthesis engine
• “Pitch” sequencer for quick and easy real-time pattern based transpositions
• “Space” – a 3D sound mixer for traditional instruments that can dramatically change the listening perspective in realtime.
• “Loop” – audio sliced based effect engine that can bypass and turn effects and parameters on in realtime that is included on all tempo-synced loop instruments.
• “Multi Script Macros” for real-time sequencing of instrument parameter controls

RE-ENGINEER THE SOUND

All of the traditional instruments in IMPAKT were recorded and programmed so the end user has total control of the multiple microphone mix (Close, Mid, Far, Rear, Sub, Wavetables), using a newly designed mixer section. Additionally, the entire listening perspective of any traditional instrument can be manipulated, using a new 3D-sound engine called “Space”. Space includes a visual mixing console for easily changing the listening perspective to any location in a theater. From standing behind the stage to sitting all the way in the back row of the theater, each instrument can be moved around for the perfect mix when combining instruments together.

Bottom line

I give Impakt 5 out of 5 subs, the interface is very easy to use, the sound quality is amazing, and the variety of textures provides the user with a very complete feeling sound design library.
