KILOHEARTS SNAPINS

Reverser, Pitch Shifter and Trance Gate are yours for free!

How to use your three free creative effects

This month’s exclusive Computer Music software giveaway is a three-pack of superb effects plugins by Swedish developers Kilohearts, worth £59. Comprising Pitch Shifter, Reverser and Trance Gate, these tasty little audio processors not only sound great, but are also extremely easy to use, with just a handful of controls to get your head around for each one. Pitch Shifter offers two octaves of highquality pitchshifting; Reverser slices and reverses beats, basslines and anything else you care to throw at it; and Trance Gate creates classic rhythmic gating effects for those hands-in-the-air riffs and lead lines.

And there’s more. Not only do these and all other Kilohearts effects work as plugins in their own right, they can also be pressed into service as ‘Snapin’ modules within the ingenious Multipass and free Snap Heap modular hosts, each of which loads as a plugin itself. Snap Heap and the six free Snapins that come with it are included in the installer along with your exclusive Snapins, so fire it up from our cover DVD or FileSilo, get the lot installed, and follow along with our walkthroughs and video.

If you like what you hear from Pitch Shifter, Reverser, Trance Gate and Snap Heap, you’ll definitely want to check out the rest of the extensive and joyously affordable Snapins range, not to mention the powerful Multipass host plugin. Find out more at… www.kilohearts.com.
