Percussa debuted new software for its AudioCubes hardware platform, including MIDIBridge, the main software to use AudioCubes with a user's existing MIDI-compatible instruments and software. The new version boasts more than 50 improvements and bug fixes collected during the past year from AudioCubes users. In addition, Percussa demo'd a new VST plug-in for AudioCubes called VSTWrapper, which lets AudioCubes interface seamlessly with a existing DAW software without complicated setup. The VST plug-in works with existing VST plug-ins and AudioUnits.Templates are included to get you started quickly.

To let AudioCubes work with existing DJ software is DJBridge, a customized MIDIBridge application that works with popular DJ Software such as Image-Line's Deckadance. The application lets users control transport, EQs, effects and looping functions by object location and orientation, and hand gestures. Colors can be set statically or controlled by MIDI clock where available.

A loop-creation and sound design tool called LoopShaper will be available for demo, which is a stand-alone mini-VST host, made specifically to support professionals needing to design loops and sounds through hands-on interaction with AudioCubes. High-speed, high-resolution, better-than-MIDI sensor technology makes sure even the most subtle performance gestures are captured.

All applications are to be released as free downloads for all AudioCubes users after Musikmesse. Learn more about the Percussa AudioCubes. Check out other product news from Musikmesse 2009.
