When capturing samples with Geist2’s Sampler, whether working with multiple loops or thresholdbased single hits, the integrated browser and an ability to record directly to the pads provides an environment for creating custom kits to hit that perfect beat!Īutomation of almost any parameter is possible with interacting modulators like LFOs, stepsequencers, envelopes, maths functions, and macro controls to morph and evolve sounds in new and creative ways.Įach of Geist2’s eight engines feature a 64-track sequencer with 24 pattern memories - all with individual track lengths to create evolving polyrhythmic patterns. Layer samples with individual effects and use crossfaded loop point modulation alongside Zynaptiq’s ZTX - a crossplatform technology for high quality timestretching, pitchshifting, and pitch correction - to create new sounds and textures.Įvent probability, microtiming shifts for ‘off-the-grid’ organic grooves, and parameter step-automation for adding new dimensions to beats are also available.įinally, Geist2’s powerful sampling and effects engine can twist and transform sounds into something completely different. New effects also include FXpansion’s own Bloom (creative delay and diffusion effect) and Maul (distortion and tone shaper) algorithms alongside low fidelity DAC (Digital to Audio Convertor) modelling, highquality reverb, frequency shifting, granular freezing, classic DCAM (Discrete Component Analogue Modelling) compression, filters, drive, and much more. Geist 2 is a whole new beast from Fxpansion's first drum software Guru. Geist2 is available to purchase and download directly from FXpansion for $199.00 USD/€179.00 EUR/£139.00 GBP from the FXpansion website, linked below. Existing Geist owners can upgrade to Geist2 for $99.00 USD/€89.00 EUR/£69.00 GBP.
Geist 2 is not what you would expect from drum software but for the creative it has possibilities to really let you put a signature on a track. You really have to dig to see the beauty in Geist but it is readily.
