Today, I would like to introduce HY-Plugins' plugins.
No, it's a free version, but you can use it firmly.
It's a low-priced version and it's free, so you can't use it for free, or there are many patterns for only some of the functions, but HY-Plugins' plug-ins can be used firmly.
This is a slicer plug-in called "HY-Slicer free".
It's similar to Slicex in FL Studio, but different.
"HY-Slicer free" can also be randomized.
I tried to ring it.
I added the bass and the drums.
Overview
There is no explanation for the free version, but there is a difference table between the paid version and the free version, so I will post it.
Format
Windows:
VST2, VST3 32 / 64bitmacOS:
VST2, VST3, AU 64bit onlyLinux:
VST2, VST3 64bit onlySystem Requirements
Windows:
Windows7 or highermacOS:
OSX 10.12 or higherLinux:
Ubuntu 18.04 or higher
The free version cannot be controlled by MIDI.
For the slice, specify the slice to be sounded by selecting the slice number in the red frame part in the figure below on the GUI.
Also, pattern switching must be done with an automation clip.
Download
You can download it without registration.
Transition from the above link and click "Download" at the bottom.
There is a download file for each OS, so download it.
The Installer version is easier and better to install.
Warnings
It may be only FL Studio, but the VST3 version seems to have a problem that the slice marker disappears when rereading the saved song file.
As a workaround, save the preset after creating the pattern, reread the song file, and then read the preset to restore the marker.
I tried to use the VST2 version, but the VST2 version did not work well for pattern selection using automation clips.
I would like to report the problem to the creator.
Summary
At first I felt it was inconvenient that I couldn't control it with MIDI, but it was rather nice to slice it in a different process than usual because I didn't control it with MIDI.
Also, there is no auto slice that is judged by dynamics, but if the start position does not match exactly, the timing will change and it will have a certain individuality.
It's fun to use these creative plugins.
Comment
It's fun to look up computer parts, isn't it?Even though I don't buy it, I see that it has high performance.
> It seems that the performance of the single core is good
I'm sure you mentioned single-core performance in previous articles, but recently I think multi-core performance is more important, especially when using synthesizers.
I see many claims that single-core performance is important because it is difficult to utilize multi-core in DAW, but for example, in Ableton Live, one thread can be assigned to each track, so if there are 1 tracks, it is normal to utilize multi-core. Can be done.
You can also allocate 1 threads to 2 track by using a rack.The load can be reduced considerably.The details are as follows.
https://help.ableton.com/hc/ja/articles/209067649-%E3%83%9E%E3%83%AB%E3%83%81%E3%82%B3%E3%82%A2CPU%E3%81%AE%E5%87%A6%E7%90%86
This is also the case with Bitwig. Since I am using iMac 2019, it has 6 cores and 12 threads, but I have confirmed that threads can be distributed to each track and within the track.
It can also benefit from synthesizer sources such as Serum and Vital.
Since the Voice parameter supports parallel processing, you will benefit from multi if you have a large number of voices or if the release is long and the sounds overlap.
The number of effects that can be inserted in series on one track does not receive much of the benefits of multi-core, so single-core is important.
However, after all, it depends on the budget, so I can't buy Mac Studio either.
I'm sorry, I broke it a little too much and had a bad word.
Comparing the Core i3 12300 and Core i5 12400, the number of cores is 4 and 6, respectively.
Single core performanceAre 695 and 569.
And the prices are $ 143 and $ 192.
The conclusion is that it would be better to use it a little with a cheap Core i3 12300 and change it to a slightly better CPU in the 13th generation.
(13th generation seems to improve Oita performance)
However, as you said, when it comes to Mac Studio level, the performance of single core is high and the number of cores is 10.
Ultra has 20 cores, so I don't understand anymore.
(The price is amazing too)
Indeed, the 13th generation is the favorite.
Recently, in the case of CPU, intel loses one person (or rather TSMC (consigned by Apple and AMD) wins one person), but it will be improved to some extent.
I think I heard that the genius who designed the M1 has moved to intel, so is that also related?
I thought it would take time because it takes years from design to sales.
The CPU itself is good for M1 Ultra and Max, but I feel that it is bigger that Apple can design from the board.
AMD and intel need to be made according to the motherboard, so there is a limit by all means, but M1 Max improves performance by increasing the size of the CPU itself from M1.
It's a sloppy thing to connect two M1 Ultra or M1 Max, so it's said that there are four Mac Pros, and it's tough to fight with a general-purpose CPU with 2 cores.I feel that the regulation is different.
However, although M1 appeared with overwhelming watt performance, it seems that AMD is catching up recently.
If you don't consider the heat, intel is good in the catalog specs, but I feel that the watt performance is not enough.
It's said that TSMC is already strong around here.
It's a little different, but I like Taro-chan, who is familiar with the technology around here, because it's very easy to understand.

I'm sorry, I'll reply to the comments in a batch.
I searched for AMD, but as you said, it's a big leap forward!
AMD didn't have a very good image when he was in Athlon and had a painful eye.
(Hard compatibility is bad)
With the latest information, it seems that it does not work with hardware or applications, so I will consider it in the long run.
(If it is a combination that can replace the CPU, it can be used for a long time, and it will be hard for the price to collapse when selling)
Another thing that surprised me was the fact that AMD is rewriting its share of CPUs for servers.
Previously, Xeon was overwhelming, but EPYC is in the top monopoly state when looking at CPU performance.
It seems that AMD will continue to make great strides in the future.
This is the information you care about ...
There is a great battle going on.
That's right.
The i3-12300 has a TDP of 60w, which is kind to the electricity bill.
TDP is an important decision factor because the recent rise in electricity costs is directly linked to running costs.
(Since I often connect to my home PC remotely from outside, I almost leave it on.)
If you look it up again, the AMD Ryzen 5 5600X is attractive.
It's TDP65w and the price is not bad at $ 222. (It's sad that the yen depreciates over 3)
However, it seems that the next socket type AM5 will appear in the latter half of 22, so it is an annoying point.
I feel like I need a little more research, so I'll look it up.
You can't miss the sudden increase in the number of 13th generation E-cores.
I wonder if it affects the power consumption at low load.
I was curious about the 13th generation, so I looked it up, but in the first place there was a dramatic improvement in watt performance in the 12th generation!
I was ashamed to think that intel hadn't caught up until I looked it up.
That's why yosi-san also talks about it as a digression.
It seems that the flagship has a wattage performance that exceeds M1.
However, since the benchmark uses the one that is advantageous for intel, the difference is about 4% when compared with Geekbench, M1 is 40W, but it seems to exceed 100W, so it seems that the practical watt performance does not reach M1.

It seems that intel is still stupid in terms of power consumption at low and medium loads, so it is difficult to compare recent CPUs.
I think that this area is still hitting the wall of miniaturization.
However, intel is not abandoned to improve watt performance by 1-2 times in one year.
I'm planning to buy a Windows machine for purposes other than DTM, so I'll keep an eye on the 13th generation.
