hi,
i tried out Jupiter (early version of Antares Infinity) on my Quadra 700, System 8.3, with 20mb ram but it says 'insuffient memory' tried in 24 bit and 32 bite memory modes.
anyone had any joy in launching this early version of Infinity?
hi,
i will try this.
It may have be called 'Jupiter Systems' Infinity looping tools at that point. It was certainly used by Emu, Korg, Roland etc to create their compact sound sets for their romplers.
There is scant info on this as it was early and before the internet as we know it.
lol : found this in the "Crazy Torrent" mentioned here: http://macos9lives.com/smforum/index.php?topic=2749.0
Yes, I had great joy with this primitive thing.
It really is a great loop editor, the feature that attracts me the most about this software is that it makes perfect loops. In other words: it does exactly what other editors fail to do in the first place.
Normally if we use any editor we will have the problem that some clicks will be generated by the bad coincidence of the beginning and end of a loop, this happens a lot in sampled basses, drum loops and synth pads.
I have several samples of Vangelis sampled from his records, I also have vinyls of Enya and some voices always have problems with singing.
I use Jupiter Infinity, to fix this problem, Recyce 2.0 does it well, but it's not always accurate.
so here the biggest difference i noticed with this editor is that you can rip a bb king, bob maley or diana ross cd and make these loops perfect right out of the box.
the loop bars are actually very good for capturing that beginning and end of each loop, also note that the realtime loop playback feature is only in Audio Steam and Adio Stream it's the same GUI as Antare Infinity, with the advantage that you can use plugins, it is also an editor that makes perfect loops.
It even happens to me with the software for mac osx CD xtract, (it doesn't always do it right), but jupiter infiniy if it measures it perfectly, you don't need to process anything, just use the tool with the two sticks to make the start and end of the desired loop It's enough.
There is an error that appears when I want to use plugins or DSP loop processors, sometimes it says that my "hard drive is locked".
Well, I'll find out what happens with that, if someone knows why it happens, still don't get caught or make bigger problems.
the historical value of this editor is important, it was used by Zero-G, Spectrasonics, Roland, E-Mu, the gentlemen of Ensoniq who were employees of E-mu... and of course the gentlemen of AKAI and Yamaha also used it this software, Paul Hardcastle, Daft PunK, Etienne de Crecy, all the hiphop, house, jungle, drum and bass and electronic bands of those years used it because it did those perfect loops well.
This loop maker saves you a lot of time on these kinds of details, fixing these mistakes can often be annoying and a waste of time.
I use this editor to create small collections of samples and thus be able to use them in my MCP2000XL, I have really verified that the kicks and hi-hats sound perfect, the drumloops without clicks or anomalies in those frequencies that normally other editors will not avoid the annoying editing error .
Protools Free already has it, and it's another much more modern option or alternative that I have.
Before using Jupiter INFINITY you have to crack it and then start the program, I always do this every time I want to use it, otherwise it tells me an error or asks me that its time expired.
Summing up: what is Antare INFINITY?
It's a bug free loop editing tool, it's like having a part of the Pro Tools edition functions, but without having to go into Pro Tools.
It's a very small and light program that if you just feel like looping your records on a Sunday afternoon, it's just perfect.
IMO, due to the little experience I have with it, it seems very precise and unique in these functions.
