Native Instruments™ Komplete™ to Spectrasonics™ Omnisphere™, MiKo QC6 does it all with ease.
MiKo QC6 is equipped with the new Bump MP™ integrated drum module,
designed to allow the user to create beats and trigger any sound, loop
or sample in real-time. Enhanced with a special Open Labs version of
Guru™ from FXpansion™, key features of the Bump MP include: (16 plus 1)
fully assignable pads, note repeat, fixed level fader, transport
controls, chromatic mode, hold, pad tune, multiple groove preset and
eight engines with 24 patterns per engine. This also allows up to 512
step sequences per pattern.
Play Plug-ins
is an entirely new concept in virtual instrument hosting. Written from the ground up by Open Labs, Riff™ encompasses over six years of live performance and studio production
knowledge gathered from some of the world's top artists, engineers,
composers, and producers.
Simply speaking, Riff™ is a multi-effect and multi-instrument rack for musicians and sound designers. It is also a VST host that runs as a standalone application.
Its advanced features include: Live Controls™, which allows the user to create any number of virtual controls in real-time that can be mapped to various effects and other parameters. Advanced intelligence allows any number of virtual controllers to manipulate any number of other virtual controllers, providing automation for virtual instruments and effects. Rewire allows for this powerful host application to be used within any DAW program.
Riff allows a user to stream the ASIO or VST input signal through chains of individual VST effects so you can use your Open Labs instrument as a real-time multi-effect processor.
It enables a user to play several VST instruments at the same time. You can layer several instruments to create complex sounds. Or, users may play instruments on different MIDI channels: It turns a computer into a multi-timbral sound generator.
Open Labs Riff™ is the new standard in VST hosting. Split, layer and chain VSTs in any configuration you desire. Your production station never sounded this good.
