一个四处游荡的颗粒状活套。Ridgewalk让您以前所未有的独特方式探索声音。在样本中的微观时刻之间弯曲，以创建无限的声景，或实时拉伸或压缩音频，同时记录并立即对新输入做出反应。
Ridgewalk既是一个活套，也是一个颗粒引擎。输出由一组独立的微环路产生，这些环路穿过单个音频缓冲区。音频缓冲区可以自由录制、叠加和恢复到以前的版本，微型播放器将平稳、即时地过渡。随着时间的推移，通过控制微控制器的大小、行为和在整个缓冲区中的移动，您可以自由地重新想象和重新解释音频，这是前所未有的——所有这些都是实时的。
Ridgewalk设计为模块化工具，使用灵活。它同样适合作为你作品的核心，在你表演时与你合作，或者作为最后的修饰，提供一种独特的互补氛围，加深你的组合。Ridgewalk与Ableton CV或Bitwig LFO等调制器完全兼容，可以进一步拓宽视野。
Ridgewalk提供以下控件：
✓ 录制：通过您选择的两种独特技术进行录制。在通过输入音量检测自动录制和可以无限录制的经典锁存录制技术之间进行选择。缓冲时间可达60秒或16巴。
✓ overdubing：在现有音频上自由地用两种方法进行overdub。在传统的反馈配音或独特的侧链配音之间进行选择，侧链配音将现有音频与新输入进行压缩。播放将立即平滑过渡到新录制。
✓ 图层：每个覆盖子都会创建一个新图层，然后您可以在平滑的图层之间移动并恢复到以前版本的音频。
✓ 完全回忆：重新打开项目时，所有录制的音频都将被保存并重新加载。
✓ 样本导入：Ridgewalk可以直接导入样本，而不是记录。
✓ 音量控制：独立的干、湿音量调节控制。
✓ 回放：循环回放可以独立于输入和录制进行播放和暂停。播放将立即反映录制音频的任何更改。
✓ 保持时间：循环播放可以在启动后的定义时间后自动暂停。这使得Ridgewalk表现得像一个奇怪的混响或延迟。
✓ 反转：播放可以反转，音频也可以反向录制。
✓ 循环大小：循环可以从缓冲区的微观片段扩展到完整大小，并且可以与BPM同步。
✓ 环形器数量：最多可提供7个微型环形器，它们彼此协同移动。
✓ 漂移：环形器的大小和定位可以随机和独立地去同步，以增加变化和不可预测性。
✓ Blur：增加氛围的一站式商店：这可以控制活套的横向效果，并引入混响。
✓ 回放：回放可以从±2个八度音阶开始回放。
✓ 随机移动（Wander）：可以设置环形器定位，通过布朗运动随时间随机移动样本。
✓ 顺序移动：循环器位置可以在以秒为单位定义的时间内或与BPM同步的时间内线性移动通过样本。
✓ 手动活套定位：活套可以通过点击或点击手动定位，将Ridgewalk变成一种表演仪器。
✓ 即时播放：Ridgewalk可以尽快开始播放录制的音频，将其颗粒循环算法转化为现场效果。
✓ 传输同步：Ridgewalk可以与DAW的传输同步，以自动开始/停止播放或录制。
建议配置：
✓ 作为音轨效果：将Ridgewalk直接放在音轨上，并将干音量设置为最大，以允许原始声音通过，同时拨入湿音量来品尝。
✓ 作为发送效果：将Ridgewalk放置在返回通道上，同时将干体积设置为0，将湿体积设置为最大。将任意数量的曲目发送到Ridgewalk，以获得与所有传入音频相关的环境床。
A wandering granular looper. Ridgewalk lets you explore sound in unique ways not possible before. Meander between microscopic moments in a sample to create an infinite soundscape, or stretch or compress audio in realtime, all while recording and reacting to new input instantly.
Ridgewalk is both a looper and a granular engine. Output is generated by a set of independent microloopers that traverse a single buffer of audio. The audio buffer can be freely recorded to, overdubbed over, and reverted to a previous version, and the microloopers will transition smoothly and instantly. With control over the microloopers' size, behavior, and movement throughout the buffer over time, you're free to reimagine and reinterpret audio like never before - all in realtime.
Ridgewalk is designed as a modular tool for flexible usage. It is equally comfortable at the heart of your composition, collaborating with you as you perform, or as a finishing touch to provide a unique complementary atmosphere to deepen your mix. Ridgewalk is fully compatible with modulators such as Ableton CV or Bitwig LFOs to broaden horizons even further.
Ridgewalk has the following controls available:
✓ Recording: Record via your choice of two unique techniques. Choose between automatic recording via input volume detection and a classic latching recording technique that can record infinitely. Buffers can be up to 60 seconds or 16 bars.
✓ Overdubbing: Freely overdub on top of existing audio with two methods. Choose between a traditional feedback dub or a unique sidechain dub which compresses existing audio against new input. Playback will smoothly transition to new recordings instantly.
✓ Layers: Each overdub creates a new layer, which you can then move between smoothly and revert to previous versions of audio.
✓ Full recall: All recorded audio will be saved and reloaded when reopening a project.
✓ Sample importing: Rather than record, Ridgewalk can import samples directly.
✓ Volume controls: Independent volume trim controls for dry and wet volume.
✓ Playback: Looper playback can be played and paused independently of input and recording. Playback will instantly reflect any changes to recorded audio.
✓ Hold time: Looper playback can be automatically paused after a defined time since starting. This allows Ridgewalk to act like a strange reverb or delay.
✓ Reverse: Playback can be reversed and audio can be recorded in reverse as well.
✓ Looper size: Loopers can span from microscopic fragments of the buffer to the full size, and can be synchronized with your BPM.
✓ Looper amount: Up to 7 microloopers are available, which move together in concert with one another.
✓ Drift: Looper size and positioning can be randomly and independently desynchronized to add variations and unpredictability.
✓ Blur: A one-stop-shop for increasing ambience: this controls looper crossfading as well as introduces reverb.
✓ Repitch: Playback can be repitched from ±2 octaves.
✓ Random movement (Wander): Looper positioning can be set to randomly wander the sample over time via Brownian motion.
✓ Sequential movement: Looper position can move linearly through a sample over a time defined in seconds or synchronized to your BPM.
✓ Manual looper positioning: Loopers can be positioned manually via tap or click, turning Ridgewalk into a performative instrument.
✓ Instant playback: Ridgewalk can start playing back from recorded audio as soon as it is able, turning its granular looping algorithm into a live effect.
✓ Transport syncing: Ridgewalk can be synced with your DAW's transport to automatically start/stop playback or recording.
Suggested configurations:
✓ As a track effect: Place Ridgewalk directly on an audio track, and set dry volume to maximum to allow your original sound to pass through, while dialing in the wet volume to taste.
✓ As a send effect: Place Ridgewalk on a return channel, while setting dry volume to 0 and wet volume to maximum. Send any number of tracks to Ridgewalk to get an ambient bed related to all incoming audio.
