Mac Audio Apps Bundle 2

The Creative Audio Toolbox for macOS

Version 2 of the Mac Audio Apps Bundle is available now. The much-anticipated commercial release under the Zynaptiq brand runs natively on Apple Silicon and features the brand-new TRIUMPH 3 as well as a copy of their must-have multi-FX plug-in WORMHOLE.

Edit, design, morph and assemble sound using TRIUMPH 3, batch process your files with MYRIAD 4, author loops with LOOP EDITOR 2, and analyze your audio across the network using SPECTRE. Then, spice up the results with the bundled multi-FX plug-in WORMHOLE, which Zynaptiq has thrown in for good measure. In other words: the Mac Audio Apps Bundle 2 is a must-have toolset for anyone working with audio on the Mac – boost your creativity and productivity with this powerful suite of apps now!

TRIUMPH 3

TRIUMPH 3 is a massive upgrade to this powerful sound design & productivity-focused editor, and adds more than 100 new features and enhancements, including tons of workflow enhancements and advanced DSP processing like morphing, vocoding, high-end granular processing, and Zynaptiq's premium ZTX® Pro time-stretching & pitch-shifting technology. 

TRIUMPH is a professional multi-channel audio editor for macOS built around a unique & patented workflow featuring audio layers. Geared for sound design as well as for fast and precise editing, TRIUMPH 3 is a true workhorse application that makes your creative and house-keeping audio workflows fast and customizable, and comes loaded with advanced Zynaptiq DSP technologies, strong workflow automation features, Source/Destination editing... and much, much more.

Loaded With DSP

TRIUMPH is a dream for anyone sculpting sound – need morphing, vocoding, world-class ZTX® Pro time-stretching, pitch-/formant-shifting, or high definition granular processing? TRIUMPH has you covered...and then some. It even bundles a copy of Zynaptiq's multi-FX powerhouse WORMHOLE, as heard on blockbuster shows like Altered Carbon, Westworld or The Witcher.

Fast, Faster, TRIUMPH

TRIUMPH's workflow is fast, flexible, highly customisable, and pretty much completely automatable. 
Edit your audio non-destructively using Smart Edits and advanced Source-Destination Editing features. Automate the app at its core using Apple Script and built-in or custom Actions. Assign custom key commands to pretty much anything, including inserting your favorite plug-in (or plug-in chain, including automation,) or executing your favorite offline processor with your favorite settings. Or do all of these and more in one go by pressing just one key – TRIUMPH turns complex tasks into a single button press.

Multi-Channel & High Sampling Rate Support

TRIUMPH supports literally any sampling rate and channel count, and any combination simultaneously, too. Want to combine a 96kHz sampled 5.1 file with a 1234 Hz sampled mono sound, and a 13-channel, 2mHz recording? TRIUMPH will do that. Each layer can have its own channel layout and sampling rate, and will accept all standard rates and layouts as well as arbitrary values, so you can mix and match while your master will always have the optimal resolution without any intermediate resampling or head-ache inducing file management hassles.

Layers & Blending

TRIUMPH's unique & patented audio layers have more up their sleeves than individual sampling rates and channel counts, though. You can think of a layer as an audio track with benefits. Similar to layers in an image editor, audio layers are combined sequentially using a blend mode, which can be a simple mixer...or a wildly creative and exciting processor: in TRIUMPH, morphing, vocoding and ring-modulation are always just a click away. Also, Layers can be moved in time as a whole, including their automation, making it much easier to re-arrange your content.

But of course, layers support all the good stuff that tracks support, too – you can mute them, apply plugins, or add automation.

SPECTRE

SPECTRE is a stand-alone, real-time audio analysis application for macOS, featuring a comprehensive set of metering and analysis instruments that let you see inside audio, from your files, real-time hardware inputs, or from across the network. Whether you're producing or mixing music, designing sound, recording talent, or mastering, SPECTRE's analysis tools will help you make the best decisions!

Meters Galore

SPECTRE features 20 different meter types, including spectrogram, analysers, level meters, Lissajous meters, Correlation meters, Oscilloscopes, and more. Each meter features ballistics and custom color gradients to ad reading them effortlessly, and provides filtering for custom weighting of your measurement data. You can customize the look and size, too, of course.

Easy as Pie

Setting up even complex metering is fast and easy in SPECTRE. You can save presets for every meter, which will also appear as options in SPECTRE's Meter Assistant, a smart wizard for setting up meters...spawn dozens of custom analysis tools in – quite literally – seconds. Or, save any combination of meters as a Meter Set for recurring setups.

Multi-Channel, Multi-Track, Multi-Source

SPECTRE supports mono, stereo, and 5.1 audio files in its internal player, as well as stereo and 5.1 streams across the network. And when using a CoreAudio device as input, you can analyse as many input channels as the device offers – great for keeping an eye on your multi-track recording. And - of course! - you can use all three sources simultaneously, zynaptiq style.
