Prominy V-Metal
A virtual electric guitar plug-in designed for metal musicians, this Kontakt-powered instrument weighs in at over 10GB and contains around 26,000 samples. It enables you to play hammer-ons, pull-offs, trills and the like, and promises “incredible real-time playability”. The above price is an introductory one.
PC, Mac/VST, AU, $129
SoundRadix Surfer EQ
An EQ plug-in that tracks the pitch of your instrument or vocal track and adjusts the EQ frequency accordingly and in real-time. We’re told that there’s no need for endless tweaking: it just works. The four-mode harmonic filter is billed as another feature highlight.
PC/VST, £19.99
Minimal System Instruments Nebula Space Reverb
Something of a labour of love for Minimal System, this plug-in can be used to create not just standard reverb effects, but also atmospheric sounds. In fact, we’re told that these can be generated from something as simple as a single drum hit, and you’re also recommended to let it go to work on loops.
