What Artillery 2 does
Effects are assigned to keyboard zones, and the developer notes that the range covers traditional filter sweeps through to more unusual textures. Stacking several effects is possible, and the developer states that CPU load rarely reaches double digits.
Each effect carries its own parameters, and every parameter can be modulated by a key tracking option that responds to the note played. Modulation sources include LFOs, envelope followers and a sequencer, and each effect has a dedicated modulation, envelope and dry/wet control. An animated green ring around each knob shows how strongly the modulation is acting.
Key features
- Keyboard zone assignment. Each effect can be assigned to a definable keyboard zone, so different key ranges of the instrument route through different processing.
- 28 effect algorithms. The effect collection covers 28 algorithms in six categories, from standard filters and delays to advanced granular processing.
- Key tracking modulation. A universal modulator can follow the pitch of the played note, and the developer gives the example of a delay whose time and feedback change across the keyboard.
- Per-parameter modulation. Each parameter can receive LFO, envelope follower or sequencer modulation, with a dedicated modulation, envelope and dry/wet control for every effect.
- Looper with key-driven loop size. The looper changes its loop size as the keyboard is played upward, which the developer describes as creating a shifting rhythmic structure.
- Stackable chain and CPU use. Many effects can be stacked into one chain, and the developer reports that CPU load rarely reaches double digits even with several layers active.
