Output released Movement FX Plugin - Rhythmic Effects Processor

Today, Output, a sample library producer released their first plugin. Movement is a very special effects processor for creating interesting rhythmic sounds. You can transform with this effect any instrument, Synthesizer or other sound in a very special unique sound. The power engine is pretty amazing because the plugin contains a lot of modulation options. The ability to use LFO’s, Step Sequencers and 4 rhythm engines is very interesting to bring change to your “boring” standard sound.

In the today music world, the performance part is a very important point in the sound effect plugins. Many modern musicians using their system including some plugins for live performance and need something to transform sound on the fly and directly. For me, I love plugins which brings a total madness of modulations with. You can here up to 152 parameters at once which sounds great.

If we can trust to the developers, the effect section is very optimised for modulation system and what makes this plugin in my eyes very attractive. Some of the big effect modulation plugins takes a lot of power of the system and brings some crackles to the audio for older system. If this one take less CPU, we can hope for a new generation of sound transformation.

What I read about the modulation, sounds juicy. “Drag and drop any number on any of the 76 knobs for modulation made incredibly easy”. If this work easy in real, this can be extremely crazy results. With addition side-chain options, you can even make bigger your sound. For the users who doesn’t have yet some experience with modulations on effects, there are 300 presets which can be used directly.

In the past I used Sugar Bytes Turnado, Effectrix or other effect plugins for such moving aspects but personally this plugins consume a lot of CPU in multiple instances. I don’t have test this one but I hope I can make some interesting videos about it and write my experiences about Movement plugin by Output. Maybe we will in future more additional effect stuff. My dream for this plugin: Granular effect or something like a resonator. Looks interesting this new plugin and I hope to give you something in future about it.

Movement is the fourth product from Output following it’s acclaimed software instruments REV, SIGNAL and EXHALE.

Built equally for studio use and live performance, Movement is an extremely powerful and innovative tool crafted to be simple, intuitive and easy to use. Dial in a rhythm from one of 300+ presets or build from scratch using Flux, Sidechain, LFO or Step Sequencer rhythm modulation, then use the XY pad to tweak up to 152 parameters in real time. Perform live with it, automate it in your DAW or just find the perfect blend of the original input and the rhythms.

“Movement is not only powerful but also incredibly musical,” says Output Founder Gregg Lehrman. “Whether you’re slowly bringing in and out subtle motion or adding insane movement, you’ll find that each and every rhythm combination is first and foremost musical.”
