Rayblaster employs a new synthesis technique called Impulse Modelling Synthesis (IMS).
Opposed to using looped waveforms, Impulse Modelling Synthesis creates its sound by using short bursts of energy, which are then combined to form its sound. Allowing free manipulation of pitch, time and timbre in real-time, to create complex compositions.
IMS no longer requires a separate filter section, its oscillators can authentically mimic the filter sound of other synthesizers and filters, using one of the factory impulse presets or by simply importing one of your own impulses. RayBlaster is capable of modelling both the sound of existing filters, as well as create completely new artificial filters, exclusive to Rayblaster.
Next to importing filter characteristics into Rayblaster’s oscillators, you can also import the waveform of any other source or synthesizer. By using one of Rayblaster’s quick importers, or by directly importing your sample into one of Rayblaster’s four oscillators, providing a large amount of possible wave-shapes, all capable of being morphed in real-time.
Main features:
New synthesis method: Impulse Modelling Synthesis.
Professional sound quality.
IMS synthesis provides independent control over pitch, timing and timbre.
Filter impulse import: mimic the filters of other synthesizers or create your own experimental / fantasy filters.
Resynthesis allows for import & manipulation of your own sounds.
Quick importers for resynthesis or drumloop synthesis.
Psychoacoustic processing.
Easy to use & fun to play.
500+ ready-to-use sounds patched by professional designers.
Low CPU.
18 high quality effects.
LFOs capable of running at audio-rate.
Arpeggiator section with extensive configuration possibilities; swing, chord steps, step velocity, …
Modulation Matrix with several new modulation features, including unique modulation value modifiers.
New features:
‘Edit->Create Random Patch’ can create an unlimited number of complex and mostly useful sounds automatically.
Tooltips with explanations are shown when the mouse is hovered over a button or control.
The tooltips can be hidden with Help->’Hide tooltips’.
The menus now show check-marks for the currently selected item.
Automatic and dynamic micro-tuning for enhanced chords.
Knobs can be reset to the default value with a double-click.
A hand-symbol is shown for text parameters which can be altered.
Support for the ‘natural-scrolling-mousewheel’ on the Mac.
Clicking a diode now also changes the LFO waveform on the Mac.
43 additional patches
4 additional waveforms
Tone2 Audio has updates their Impulse-Modeling-Synthesizer RayBlaster to v2.6, a major update, which is available for free.
It includes a big GUI, many new features, higher sound-quality, many enhancements and some fixes.
RayBlaster 2.6 is downward-compatible with all previous versions. All existing song projects and patches can be loaded without any further steps necessary. They will benefit from the enhanced sound-quality.
New features:
A big interface is available beside of the normal scale now.
It is possible to select from 4 GUI sizes in ‘Setup’.
The texts shown in the patch-browser on Mac support Hi-DPI drawing.
The plugin detects the best GUI-size automatically.
Added Digital-Signatures for the installers on PC.
Added Notarisation for the installers on Mac.
Support for Code-Signing on the Mac, since new hosts may require it to be able to run plugins.
Compatibility with MacOS Catalina.
Completely new AudioUnit interface.Enhancements:
More harmonic overall sound.
Enhanced sound of ‘Chorus’ and ‘Ensemble’. They sound smoother and less detuned.
Enhanced sound of ‘Delay’, ‘Delay Band’, ‘PingPong’, ‘Multitap’, ‘Delay Diffuse’ and ‘Delay Dual’. The echo sounds less detuned.
Higher precision audio-rendering.
Workaround for a well-known bug in Apple’s AU-manager: It is not longer necessary to reboot the Mac to detect the plugin.
Some texts on newer OS X-versions were looking ugly.
More contrast for the user-interface.
Removed the ugly reflections of the borders from the GUI.
PC-version is loading faster.
Better compatibility with Windows 10.
Activation-dialogue in also available in German.New features and enhancements (standalone-version for PC):
Added a recorder that can export your jam-session to a WAV-file.
The BPM-rate can be changed.
Added a soft-clipping-algorithm with low harmonic distortion.
The current patch can be saved on exit and is reloaded automatically on start.
MME-driver support.
Midi-through support with output-routing.
Added MIDI-velocity-curves with multipoint-splines.
Optional MIDI-transposition with up to +-48 semitones.
Optional MIDI-channel-filtering.
The current BPM-rate, CPU-load and volume is shown on the top-panel.
Tooltips are shown on the top-panel.
Lower latency for the sound-card drivers.
More responsive GUI with 120 Hz refresh-rate for smooth knob movements.Fixes:
The check-mark for the patch selector was missing in some hosts after closing and opening the GUI.
Fixed some GUI glitches in the browser which could appear if very long names are used.
Fixed the Y-coordinates of the texts on Mac.
Fixed a rarely appearing crash on the Mac that could happen when the plugin was deleted while a tooltip was shown.
Fixed a rarely appearing problem when envelope-parameters were not updated correctly.
Fixed an unlikely crash on the Mac which happened if the plugin was closed immediately after opening the browser.
Fixed a bug in the fast-sine-approximation on PC.
Fixed a bug with list-selectors on Mac 64-bit.
Updated some deprecated links.Changes:
32-bit on Mac is not longer supported. If you still use it, install RayBlaster 2.5 instead.
MacOS 10.7 is the minimum requirement now. If you use 10.6 or 10.5, install RayBlaster 2.5 instead.
