DUY

DUY has announced that DaD Tape is now available as an RTAS, Audio Units, VST and MAS plug-in.

DUY DaD Tape was originally developed for TDM in the mid-90s to satisfy the needs of digital recording technology, and escape the “cold digital recording media”. To achieve the desired results, four of the most representative tape machines in the market were physically modelled.

DUY also simulated three of the most common noise reduction systems, and even added a proprietary noiseless-tape mode. All these features are integrated into DUY DaD Tape, along with a switch that allows to switch between tape speeds. The plug-in has become a standard when it gets to delivering an analog tape character to a final mix or a section. Read more…

DUY has announced that the entire range of TDM plug-ins is now compatible with Apple’s Intel-based Mac computers, in addition to the recently-released native-compatible versions.

Registered users have been informed by email of the updated links to download the new versions. The available demo versions being delivered through DUY’s website are also Intel-compatible.

DUY’s Universal Binary versions are 4.0 for all TDM plug-ins except for Magic Spectrum PRO (2.0), MagicEQ (2.0) and SynthSpider (3.0).

Registered users who already had an iLok license of the software can download this update for free and use the same iLok license. Users who don’t have an iLok-compatible version of the software will have to upgrade to the latest version.

The availability of these new Intel-compatible versions comes as an addition to the recently announced compatibility for RTAS, Audio Units, VST and MAS versions, providing full compatibility with Apple’s new processors for the entire range of DUY plug-ins.

Mac OSX 10.3.9 or higher is required to run the Intel-compatible versions. Mac OSX 10.2 or higher required for the non-Intel (PPC) versions.

DUY has announced that the new versions of all its native plug-ins are compatible with Apple’s Intel-based Mac computers.

Registered users have been informed of the latest links to download the new versions. The available demo versions being delivered through DUY’s website are also Intel-compatible.

The available plug-ins compatible with Intel-based Mac computers are the following:

• DUY Magic Spectrum 2.0 for RTAS, Audio Units, MAS and VST.
• DUY MagicEQ LE 2.0 for RTAS, Audio Units, MAS and VST.
• DUY EverPack Bundle Multihost 3.0 for RTAS, Audio Units, MAS and VST.

Registered users of the native versions of Magic Spectrum and MagicEQ can download the new versions for free. Users of EverPack 2.5 (Multihost) are also entitled to a free upgrade. Upgrade pricing applies to users of previous versions of EverPack (there is no increase in price: they are set at the same value as the upgrades to version 2.5).

DUY’s TDM plug-ins will soon be offered as Universal binaries too. These versions are currently under development, and they are initially expected to be released before the end of the year.

Mac OSX 10.3.9 or higher is required to run the Intel-compatible versions.

Mac OSX 10.2 or higher required for the non-Intel (PPC) versions.

DUY has announced a new mastering plug-in for TDM: DUY MagicEQ, a Statistically-Adaptative Automatic Equalizer. MagicEQ automatically equalizes your mix and lets you adjust the result to give your own extra “touch” to the sound, making the equalization process fast and simple. DUY MagicEQ is shipping now.

To use DUY MagicEQ, you simply insert the plug-in, play your music and click on a LEARN button, which starts a process of analysing the music, resulting in an auto-equalization of the song. After the EQ’ing has “magically” taken place, the result can be adjusted using the provided EQ knobs.
