HyperEngine
HyperEngine is a MacOS application which provides a stand-alone framework for running Hyperprism 2, Ionizer, Ray Gun and other signal processing plug-ins. Arboretum gives HyperEngine away for free, and it's also bundled with the Hyperprism 2, Ionizer and Ray Gun packages. At its most basic level, HyperEngine provides input and output services to DSP plug-ins, acting as a shell that allows plug-ins such as Ionizer and Ray Gun to run independently of 3rd-party host programs. HyperEngine offers several unique advantages, including fast drag-and-drop file editing, fast arrow-key navigation, non-destructive document based processing, real-time play-through processing (just like a hardware processor, no file acquisition required) on-the-fly processing during recording, as well as allowing you to run multiple effects concurrently for complicated multi-effect processing. HyperEngine is free and includes three fully running sound effect plug-ins.The Free Ring Modulator, Auto Pan and Low Pass filter plug-ins are the same processes used in Hyperprism. Our Review: HyperEngine is a sound editor that demonstrates the abilities of 3 Arboretum DSP plugins; Auto-Pan, Low-Pass and Ring-Modulator. These effects come with many customisation abilities and can be layered to be recorded either pre or post 'tape'. Support is given for the professional audio cards such as the Korg 1212. The Low-Pass filter allows settings of cutoff freq and Q factor, the Auto-Pan has a configurable depth, offset position, and oscillation frequency. Additional commercial DSP plug-ins can be found at the Arboretum website.
