As a complement to DEEP RECONSTRUCTIONS and DEEP TRANSFORMATIONS, DEEP FREQ specialises in sophisticated frequency manipulation and can therefore transform audio material in unusual and inspiring ways.

DEEP FREQ was developed by sound-design specialist and producer Denis Gökdag and offers 150 sophisticated multi-effects combinations based on the ABSYNTH, GUITAR RIG and REAKTOR engines integrated into KORE. Through complex combinations of filters, resonators, frequency shifting, resynthesis, granular synthesis and similar algorithms, DEEP FREQ can profoundly alter the tonal character of rhythm tracks, melodic lines, vocal tracks and any other audio material, with spectacular and unusual results for studio production and use in live performances.

Each effects processor in DEEP FREQ offers a special selection of parameters for intuitive, direct intervention in the central aspects of the sound, which can easily be assigned to any MIDI controller. Intelligent multiple assignments and the innovative "Sound Variations" in KORE 2 and KORE PLAYER allow both subtle and drastic multidimensional sound changes with just a single rotary control. In addition, all presets include KoreSound metadata, so they can be called up in the KORE Sound Browser in a flash to suit the musical application.

DEEP FREQ is available immediately as a download for EUR 69 from the NI Online Shop.
