Update of the popular sampler. Contact allows you to play and process previously recorded audio data – samples of musical instruments, sound effects, vocal tracks, and more – but this is only a small part of the entire spectrum of its capabilities.
In Vkontakte, you can use ready-made instruments from a huge number of libraries from third-party developers or create your own virtual instruments, apply powerful built-in processing modules to their audio signals, build complex performance schemes with various modulation connections. Anything is possible – from ultra-precise recreation of real instruments to the creation of original, unlike anything else instruments.
The main innovation of the sixth version of Contact is the table-wave engine, which allows new hybrid instruments, combining synthesis with sampling, to create unique sound textures.
Additional functionality:
- Activation of protected libraries is not required, the ability to register (add to bookmarks) in batch mode.
- Ability to edit patches of protected libraries.
- Ability to resave with samples of patches from protected libraries.
- Ability to edit password-protected scripts.
