    Let me introduce you ladies and gentlemen to Flux Ircam Tools Bundle, specifically Flux Ircam Trax Transformer. Why they chose such a long name? Couldn't tell you but I can tell you one thing--this puppy ROCKS!

    Any of you sly cats know if this is going to be a release any time soon? Dying to get my hands on this one lol!

    I messed with their stuff about a year ago or so. I was interested in Alchemist their multiband dynamics plugin. I remember that it was kinda clunky, hesitant, like it was still buggy. Maybe its better now, dunno. Dont let me spoil you, go grab the demos and see for yourself if their other products are better now. I just prefer my own "system" of plugins

    Thanks for the info avicii!

    I've checked the flux website and I have to hold two thumbs up for them:
    First, they actually have usable Trial versions that work *without* any dongle or too severe restrictions, and
    Second they clearly state what the demo limitations are, which unfortunately has become less common these days.
    I also appreciate their BitterSweet free transient shaper which may not be as efficient as Voxengo's TransGainer, but it works :)

    Then I checked the youtube lessons. Wow, looks like a good companion to Melodyne, extending its vocal tweaking capabilities quite a bit.
    Nice.

    Because you guys here at audioz have always been so damn supportive I went ahead and tried to return the favor (now this is not the FULL version) but it is directly from the Computer Music 161 DVD which I went ahead and bought because they had a demo with much better restrictions than the one on the Flux website.

    O, and I went ahead and threw the free transient designer plugin called Flux Bitter Sweet II in there PLUS their free (and may I add the one I will be using from now on) stereo monitoring tool called Flux Stereo Tool.

    Did I mention this also comes with demos of "Cross Synthesis - Spectral Envelope Morphing Processor" & "Source Filter - Enhanced Sound Filtering"?! And lastly, it is CPU intensive but seriously--upgrade the damn computer already and stop spending the money on stuff you don't need :P

    --Like most things I complain about, the solution is always found AFTER reading the manual.. so don't start tweaking buttons right away or it will sound not like you wanted. MAKE SURE to select the closest description to the source track first (play around with some of the vocals on those multi tracks on audioz) using the "Source" click menu in the top left, and then simply select the "Target" click menu description you want and BE AMAZED! This thing is actually BETTER than I thought it'd be.. and that almost never happens. This would be a great accompaniement to Melodyne & Auto-tune. These three together would cause major damage in the club!

    Trial Limitations:
    2 channels maximum processing (mono or stereo).
    1 FS (32, 44.1, 48 Khz).
    No properties (parameters) published to the Host software. So your settings
    will not be saved in the host software project (composition).
    No Automations (so No Control surface supported).
    No Side-chain (for plugins that support side-chain).
    No presets Save/Recall, Import/Export (only factory preset can be loaded).
    This version is not time bombed but after half an hour of audio processing
    or UI utilization all the user interface controls will be disabled. The
    sound will still be processed, allowing you to continue working normally on
    your project but you will not be able to modify the settings until you
    restart the plug-in.

    TRAX:
    no Fundamental frequency direct edit ! have to use the Preset, Register and Learn...
    Options are disabled
    no spectral envelope
