AMT The Riser
Plug-ins for specific tasks are not uncommon, of course, but a plug-in designed for a very specific task within specific genres is. The Riser is designed as a transitions plug-in to offer those extreme dynamics in music where you get the lulls and then the big rises, which inevitably lead to the song crashing back in for impact.
This plug-in deals with the ‘rise’ part in many different ways, and can even act as an instrument in its own right. Reviewer Hollin Jones said: “Although it is perfect for electronic transitions, you can get even more creative by slowing things down and getting a more ethereal, pulsing sound out of it.”
He concluded: “It’s well worth a look for the creative possibilities The Riser offers.”
