What Kontour does
A Motion Recorder sits in the Performance View, where four Macro controls condense the instrument’s parameters, and each Macro is mapped to several parameters for radical tweaking. Motion Recorder can automate custom modulations and timbre transitions for long, evolving soundscapes.
Key features
- Comb and state variable filters. A precise, tunable comb filter works alongside a flexible state variable filter, and feedback routing can be shaped in detail.
- Motion Recorder. The Motion Recorder records movement of the four Macro controls in the Performance View to automate modulations and timbre changes over time.
- Four Macro controls. Each of the four Macro controls is mapped to several parameters, so one movement can change a group of settings at once.
- Crack, keygen and serial variants. Searches for a Kontour keygen, a serial crack or a patched build are common alongside the plugin name.
