Hi guys! After a long time we're very happy to announce the 2.0 update :) There will come more videos, tutorial lessons, ect. in the next days and weeks. We open for any questions and will be present in further discussions! All the best, Stephan & Jakob *** Mazetools Soniface Lab 2.0 ...contains huge improvements of performance, sound quality, visuals, user interface design, help function, connectivity & many of new demo scenes and songs! Especially the Sound, Sampler and the Rhythm Interfaces have been improved fundamentally with new sound effects. A sample now can be linked to the Grid and played. Soniface now includes Ableton Link to synchronize musical tempo, a Drum Sample Controller with library as well as new soundscape samples. The Sound Interface now contains a Low-Pass resonance filter and a High-Pass Filter. The hexagon function changes the number of grid tones played. The Colorshift function serves to shift the color assignment on the grid and increases the variance of the basic tones. A Grid trigger playback on/off function enables to switch between a the permanent sound and the playback after triggering the grid by touch or mouse. The Sampler Interface is now also displaying the wave shape of mic recordings. The >Sample to Grid< function transfers the current sample to the Grid tones and the Sound Interface controllers will work with the sample. There are new sounds in the sample library from the baltic sea & Japan. New sample playback functions have been added (Play at begin/end after/before pattern switch). The new effect rack contains Low-Pass, High-Pass, Chorus, Echo, Feedback & Distortion for samples. The Rhythm Interface now includes a drum polyphony on/off function. The Drum Sound menu contains a new Drum Sample controller and a drum sample library. The Sampler link function can be enabled to use a sample from the Sampler Interface as drum element. A Spatial audio on/off switch has been added to arrange the drums via the Maze position in surround sound. The new effect rack contains a Low-Pass, High-Pass, Chorus, Echo, Feedback & Distortion for drums. The Physics was enriched by a LFO function for Low-Pass filter. The Tunes Interface by a Grid-Arpeggiator bending function which extends the variance of the tones played automatically. The Setup Menu contains an improved Quality mode as well as the option to zoom in/out the complete user interface. The on/off switch for multi-touch enables to change the position of several Mazes simultaneously by several fingers. Multi-touch gestures have been changed for 4 fingers (rotation for reverb length) and 5 fingers (rotation for drum volume and distance for drum filter). Soniface Pro Mobile The Recording Menu includes the new possibility to record the Maze movements on the grid. A complete new Visual Interface includes many texture settings, controllers & a 3D figure. The screen outputs (up to 3) can be different from the main screen and monitored via the integrated monitors. The Keyboard of a desktop device can now be used as input controller for Grid triggering (by the letters), to trigger drums (by numbers), and to play color-harmony keyboard (caps lock letters, q=c). FOR WINDOWS USERS: Soniface can be controlled now by Body-Tracking controllers (tested with Kinect V1/V2 and Intel Real Sense). Via the Automation menu the new Body-Tracking Interface enables to connect effects & parameters to body movements & and impulse gestures (to hit drums or samples).

The support of the Leap Motion Controller has been implemented. The new interface can be accessed via the Automation Interface and allows to control effects and parameters with hand movements (like with Midi Input). The Input Controller Hub shows any connected input controller. Beside a better overview this is useful to test/run Sets and Mazes, also if no external input controller is connected. A custom user folder can be selected (beta! App restarts after selecting the folder). ***
