Alchemy Player Description

Alchemy player is a synth plug-in and in order to have access to its resources a host capable of loading VST instruments is required. Sometimes this application is also called DAW (digital audio workstation).Installation routineGetting it on the system does not require too much effort from the user but it allows choosing the installation of the 32-bit or 64-bit VST variant as well as include Alchemy RTAS in the process. Moreover, there is the possibility to define the location where all the data is stored. Alchemy player provides a large number of presets to choose from, which range from synth pads to deep basses. It also brings to the table an extensive database of samples. FunctionalityThe main application window features a browsing section that shows the presets neatly organized into categories. The category can also function as a search parameter and coupled with the sub-category, timbre or genre it can help narrow down the list of results. Each of the preset can be awarded a rating and supports tagging and commenting for keeping a better track of them. Manipulating them can be done through ADSR (Attack-Decay-Sustain-Release) controls and X/Y controllers. Another set of buttons help morph and shape the preset into a new sound. ConclusionAlchemy player is a rich repository of sounds that can be used as they are as well as chiselled into something new. Support for loading third-party SFZ sample libraries extends its functionality to new levels. It is not a plug-in for the uninitiated as both the interface and the controls it provides require more than basic knowledge about music production. Nevertheless for the trained user it makes for a versatile audio production environment. Reviewed by Ionut Ilascu, last updated on April 1st, 2014
