SonicLab Release PaSSBot V3

sonicLab have released PaSSBot v3, available for €69.00.

What’s new in version 3:

  • A SEM filter implementation offering BandPass, Lo+Hi and Notch filter types.
  • Now the user can set the root frequency of the selected tuning scale.
  • Relevant revisions on the manual.

PaSSBot is a unique stochastic filter bank plugin. a cloud of filters with complex modulation capabilities driving up to 64 unique parallel instances.

It is also structurally the base of sonicLAB Fundamental, where the latter owes most of its features to the PaSSBot. 

PaSSBot filter types are Biquad, StateVariableFilter, Ladder, Resonator and SEM filter implementations. With behaviours of bandpass, Lo + Hi-pass, and Notch types and up to 64 of them in true stereo !  

The user can set values of center frequency, gain and resonance of the each filter, which will be then eloborated with powerful stochastic generators (4 independent GENs) with continuous or discrete probabilistic distributions but also with standard waveforms. 

You can set each filter parameters individually, but also distribute them in harmonic order, again the harmonic spread ratio can be set by the user or even can be modulated by a GEN.  Be it stochastic complex control-waveforms to interact with or simple touches, this calculated data serving to the filter bank create musical soundscapes instantly. Tuning scales can be deployed to tune the filter center frequencies.

Features include:

  • For independent GEN’s for each filter (modulation generators ) with loads of stochastic distribution sources. This makes upto 64 x 4 GENs running in parallel.
  • Each GEN can modulate a different parameter: Center freq, filter gain, filter bandwidth, harmonic spread ratio and stereo spatialization.
  • You can tune the filter fequencies to musical scales. PaSSBot can read .scala format scale files.
  • True two channel behavior for stereo imaging, and each filter position can be modulated on the stereo field.
  • The filter can run continuously or be triggered manually. In that case, each filter will be applied an independent AR envelope with configurable random duration.
  • Precision DSP rendering, less than 1milisec. control rate precision and at the same time CPU friendly.

PaSSBot v3 is available to PC, Mac and iOS users (VST3, AU and AUv3) and requires an iLok account.
