i was waiting for a filter from D16. Well Decimort could be used as one. Too bad that the filter settings are limited to 12 kHz...

Decimort looks and sounds just peachy!...saw that there is an introductory price pre-order period. Is there going to be a demo for Decimort released before the end of that pre-order period?
I'd really like the intro price, but even more importantly, I'd like to test drive the beast a bit :twisted:

please advise?-

thanks!

Hi,

Unfortunately not. We had to raise the prices up of our Silver Line plug-ins, and pre-order offer is kind of promotion, when the official release date will come, we're going to change the price of Decimort to 35 euro - and it'll be regular price for Silver Line effect.

Best regards,
Sebastian

sorry Sebastian... I think I may have confused my question...
to confirm: there will be no demo version available before the release date for Decimort?

I have some questions regarding your decimort. Is there only one method of downsampling? I have some freeware samplerate reducers that offer more than one method of downsampling, and I have to say it makes a resampler much more useful if there are several resampling methods available..

I will have to wait for a demo version so I can confirm the tweakability myself. I'm sure it's a top notch product like the other silver fx's (so far I own both devastor & fazortan), but I'm really, really picky when it comes to resamplers ;)

(used to work for 4 years in a recording studio that did telephony voice prompts, target formats were mainly 8kHz & 4kHz ADPCM. I have a lot of experience on resampling)

Ofcourse it is not the only one method, but there is only one really proper method - bandlimited resampling (see Decimort :) ). It means that we're using algorithm which emulates the process of sampling (at 44100Hz) an oldschool sampler (for example working at 16500Hz). Ofcourse bit's quantisation is also bandlimited and emulates AD conversion with dithering.

Well, I just pre-ordered so I will see! Just for the record, what was the selling point to me in Decimort, was actually a very simple tool: Wet/Dry controls :)

(no resampler that I have access to ATM give me wet/dry controls)

Hi,

Did You send those emails from [deleted by admin]?

If so, I received it and answered, but seems it has not been delivered. Before a minute I sent the message once again from few other (my private) email boxes, any of them should be delivered.

Anyway please check out Your spam/junk folders.

Best regards,
Sebastian
