AudioThing have released Seconds, available at the intro price of $29.00, increasing to $49.00 after the promotion.
Seconds is a versatile spectral sound design plugin developed in collaboration with Hainbach that utilizes 48 analog-modeled bandpass filters to manipulate audio signals through methods like ring modulation, saturation, and sample rate reduction.
The plugin draws historical inspiration from the Sekundanfilterbank used at the SWR Experimentalstudio and the aesthetic design of the Brüel & Kjær 1983 frequency analyzer, offering advanced capabilities such as MIDI-sequenced filtering and spectral freezing.
Users can achieve a wide range of sonic textures, from delicate tonal shaping and glassy pings to aggressive metallic sounds and heavy percussion, by leveraging independent panning of odd and even bands alongside flexible filter slopes.
Seconds provides a non-dongle licensing system that allows for installation on up to three computers with either online or offline activation options.
Features include:
- 48 analog modelled bandpass filters
- 12 / 24 dB slopes with resonance control
- Playable via MIDI
- Spectral analysis, freeze, and transfer
- Ring modulation per band
- Odd / even panning control
- Volume and panning modulation
- Input saturation and sample rate reduction
