Great video by aurex that shows TAL plugins in action.

aurex:
"..every synth sound and every effect is done by a TAL plug-in.. I didn't use any external FX, EQ or compression so what you hear is what you get. The raw TAL sound. "

"I just wanted to tell you I'm a big fan of the TAL plug-ins - I use one of your synths or effects on every track I make. The TAL stuff is so much better than a lot of the commercial software out there!"

Thanks to MiSSiONCREEP for updating and fixing the manual :)


21.09.2009 Great tracks by Joshua D. Pomeroy using some TAL plugins

Working at the Club.MP3

Joshua D. Pomeroy:
"The drums are samples running to a bus with 2 instances of Tal-Tube. I also use Tal-USE on the snare to give more snappy highs. Tal-Bassline for the bass with Tal-USE to fatten it up.
Lead synth is Tal-Elec7ro with some reverb and delay. I used P8 for the string synth and ran it through Tal-Chorus 60.
There's a cymbal loop that I used Tal-USE on to bring out more highs and turn down any sub."

18.09.2009 Release of TAL-Elek7ro 1.11 and Final release TAL-Reverb 1.00

TAL-Elek7ro 1.11



Release of  TAL-Elek7ro Version 1.11. Includes some bug fixes and the awesome U-No-62 24 dB filter and BassLine's 18 dB filter.

I'm sorry for that fast 1.11 update. Had some free time today... :) This update does not affect the overall sound of the filters, its just a little detail in the non-linear filters stages that i had to improve.
  • Improved filter sound at high resonance (sounds a little bit more analogue now). (Verison 1.11)
  • New filter types (U-No-62 24 dB, TAL-BassLine 18 dB)
  • Hanging notes in poly mode fixed.
  • Possible click at the end of long release times fixed.
  • This update does not affect old presets.

30.07.2009 - TAL-DUB-II V.1.55 released



TAL releases TAL-Dub-II version 1.55:

  • Fixed a major bug that could lead to a crash.
This update maybe affects the sound of your presets if you worked with an other sampling rate as 44100Hz!


19.07.2009 - The current project: TAL-Reverb

We had to read a lot of papers and already put a lot of work into this reverb effect. As always, the effect will only have few knobs for tuning and should be very easy to use (no early reflection stuff). The goal is to make a musical modeled reverb effect, that is suitable for all kind of audio material. There should be no artefacts also with short percusion sounds or peaks and the effect should use not much CPU.

A short demo mp3 with some test signals(short click, guitar, synth) and too much reverb ;) This demo shows the whole audio spectrum of the reverb without any equalizer:

TalReverbDemo.mp3

coming soon...


18.07.2009 - Van Rossum Electrowerken

A great track by Van Rossum Electrowerken which uses a some TAL plugins:

Bassline: Elek7o

28.06.2009 - TAL-BassLine version 1.4.0 released



Release of TAL-BassLine version 1.4.0. After some user feedbacks, that the filter in version 1.1 sounded better, we had to make some changes to the filter again.
The problem in version 1.1 was the aliasing, that occoured in the self oscillating filter(full resonance) at high cutoff frequencies with a 44100Hz sampling rate. Now we have no aliasing and a really good self oscillation filter sound, we think :)

Audio demo:
bassline_filter.mp3

Changes in Version 1.4.0
  • Much better filter sound, especially with a lot resonance.

24.06.2008 - TAL-U-No-62 Version 1.7 released

TAL releases TAL-Dub-II version 1.4:
  •  Low frequency noise fixed.

11.06.2009 Final release of TAL-Elek7ro 1.02



Release of  TAL-Elek7ro Version 1.02. Includes a key trigger mode for oscillator 1 and 2. Useful for percussion and drum sounds. This release also includes some bug fixes and 14 new factory presets by xenos:
  • Osc 1 and osc 2 key trigger option (if one trigger is enabled, the subosc is triggered too). (1.02)
  • Filter slur while playing the first note and in program change - fixed. (1.02)
  • 14 new factory presets by xenos. (1.02)

  • Free routable AD-envelope.
  • Mod-wheel and Pitch-Wheel support.
  • Midi Learn for all pots.
