First Impression Of Ircam Lab, Wow, totally new mixes are possible Options

[gollolux]

Tried now IRCAM Lab during several hours with one instrumental playback of my songs. You can do really weird or even nasty things with this program. The possibility to record live done changes in a song will certainly inspire some remixers. Could create quite new songs just playing with the program.
Next I'll see the quality on a single voice so I can compare it to a voice transposed in Melodyne.
But the first impression today was very good!

I had half an hour with it.

It works beautifully.

I'd prefer there to be zoom in and out on the mouse wheel rather than only having that adjustment available by travelling to the lower RH corner for every magnification need.

I like that a simple double click returns to default settings for each knob.

I'm playing this on my home iMac on OSX 10.6.8 Intel Dual Core.

Nice, extreme is easy, subtle is easier still.

Time stretch to exact duration by data entry and transposition by precise pitch by data entry would be great addition.

Cheers

Hello famousbass,

Thanks for giving us your feedback.

It is early days for the software and of course there are some things that are missing that would make navigation and the process easier.

Your comment about the magnification and the entry of the exact duration and pitch needed for a project are great suggestions.

The most important thing was to have the software's audio quality at its highest level, which we think IRCAM LAB has accomplished. Now with the feedback we are getting from the people who are trying it out we will send along your comments so that the user interface is top notch as well.

Best Regards,

Nick
