Crusher-X v 6
May 6, 2017
MacOS X Intel
In version 6 grain generators can now be modulated with the new “Spread” parameter that modulates with different frequency offsets for each generator. This leads to very intensive, pulsing, diverge and converge grain modulations. In addition, new modulation types like “Random Sync”, “Sample & Hold” as well as “Follow Pitch” are provided. All modulations can be synced to the host beat and besides the spline-editor as a new step-editor is introduced.
The new “Autotune” feature generates pitch aggregations and compensations via the grain engine while forcing tuning towards specific scales. The unique autotune modus “Force to Base Tone” steers the grain-engine so that the output pitch is nailed down to a single tone independent from the input signal pitch.
The UI is reworked and a new vapor modulation overview shows all modulations in parallel. More than 130 included patches are ready to be used by sound-designers, film score composers, DJs and experimental guitarists.
The legacy platform dependent licenses crusherX-Mac! and crusherX-Studio! are now replaced by the common platform independent license crusher-X: So one license purchase allows to use crusher-X on both platforms.

Enhance grain view to display the generator routing.
Enhance head room for X-Crush processing.
Enhance grain generator panning behavior.
Changed behavior on loading a crusher sheet so that file name is taken over as the preset name.
Fix several AIFF file loading problems.

Adds Length to Birth link feature that allows better manual control of the grain density
Adds more Feedback headroom
Optimizes the Feedback routing that allows feedback loops independent from the vaporizer input level
Fixes a bug that prevented on some hosts the storing of the UI layout if editor was not closed before the save
Minor UI layout tweaks
Adds Yosemite compatibility
Changes license agreement to allow copies of the full version on more than one computer
