VisioForge
VisioForge
Our state-of-the-art video fingerprinting technology incorporates the latest advances in scene analysis, object tracking, and motion estimation to analyze the content of any video in order to identify its unique characteristics, such as colors, scene structure, and the motion of objects. This allows a copy of the video to be identified despite changes in resolution, bit-rate, method of encoding, or file format. The video can even be detected when it is included inside another video or when just a fragment of the video is reproduced. Our SDK allows you to integrate this video identification functionality into your applications and services. Our licensing agreement permits you to incorporate the technology in an unlimited number of products for one payment. There are no other fees, regardless of the number of copies of these products you sell.Starting Price: €900 per year -

VCV RACK
VCV RACK
VCV RACK simulates a modular synthesizer where each module itself can be a challenge to simulate on a modern computer, whether it’s a virtual analog model with hundreds of analog components to simulate, or a digital module designed to be run on an ARM microprocessor similar to your smart phone’s. A common patch of a hundred modules can require billions of floating point calculations per second to simulate and millions of 2D path elements to draw using OpenGL. Use VCV Recorder to record audio or video. It operates in engine “time”, not real-time, and therefore does not record real-time audio hiccups/stuttering. This means that any hiccups/stuttering you hear in real time will not be present when the recording is played back. Plugins extend VCV RACK functionality by adding one or more modules to use in your patch. Plugins are typically installed via the VCV Library. Save, share, edit, and move around selections of modules.Starting Price: $19 per month -

13
Beatzille
u-he
Beatzille is a compact version of our monster modular synthesizer Bazille. Although its condensed feature set makes it the ‘little brother’, Beatzille is still an engaging and capable synthesizer. Power and style run in the family. Digital oscillators, analog-style filters,s, and flexible patching will keep you busy for a good while before thinking about tackling Bazille. Striking the balance between too much and too little, Beatzille is the happy medium. It presents an introduction to modular synthesis and a taste of the power of Bazille without being overwhelming. All three synthesis methods run simultaneously, so you can combine them to create an extensive range of sounds. Beatzille is great at generating weird modular blips and squeaks, but you can even coax soft pads and organic keys from the oscillators, as demonstrated by the factory library. Add modulation for even more sound possibilities.Starting Price: Free -
14
Triple Cheese
u-he

Oscillator with variable symmetry (sawtooth to triangle, PWM) and glide. Combination arpeggiator/16-step sequencer with extra modulation source. ADSR or HDSR, linear or exponential. Sustain has fall/rise control.Starting Price: Free -
16
Zebralette
u-he
Zebralette is our version of a Trojan horse. A free synthesizer and an introduction to Zebra2's fantastic oscillators. Perhaps it will persuade you to try Zebra2 and upgrade. If one oscillator is this powerful, imagine what you can achieve with four, and all the other great features available in Zebra2. Zebralette is an introduction to Zebra2's powerful oscillators. Zebra2 can seem overwhelming at first glance, so we stripped it down to a single oscillator plus a few other features and created Zebralette, the little Zebra. Once you master Zebralette you can move up to Zebra2 with confidence. Your presets can come with you, as Zebralette presets can be opened in Zebra2. But more than a teaching tool, Zebralette is an incredible-sounding synth in its own right. Surrounding Zebra's spectral oscillator with a few core modulation options and effects makes Zebralette highly capable.Starting Price: Free -

BurstPick
BurstPick LLC
BurstPick is a desktop culling application for wildlife, bird, and action photographers who shoot RAW bursts. It reads a folder of photos, groups frames shot close together into bursts automatically, and scores every frame so the likely keeper rises to the top of each burst. Scoring uses six criteria weighted for wildlife rather than portraits: Focus (28%), Eye Visibility (22%), Exposure (17%), Composition (17%), Noise (11%), and Context (5%). Focus measures sharpness on the detected subject rather than the whole frame; Eye Visibility checks whether the subject's eye is open, lit, and in focus; Noise is ISO-aware, tolerating grain while penalizing banding. Weights are adjustable with live re-ranking, presets can be saved and exported, and a "Calibrate from my picks" tool derives a weighting from frames you have already chosen. A per-criterion breakdown explains every score.Starting Price: $89 one-time -
