About Rack747:
Rack747 is an 8 voice virtual synthesiser/sequencer/drum-machine combining the spirit of classic analog gear with the power and flexibility of state-of-the-art digital techniques.

Rack747 is BeOS's premier acid loop composer and groovebox. It provides everything you could imagine needing to write your own beats and grooves, including:
  • Accessible and easy to use single screen interface for primary control and sequencing.
  • 8 voice polyphonic synthesiser, with a variety of styles and sounds:
    • solidly synthesised analog emulation, based around an excellent model of the TB303 bassline, and extended to cover a full spectral range.
    • guitar emulator.
    • a powerful and versatile 8 operator FM synthesis system.
    • an integrated sampler, line input, and mixer.
  • 32 simultaneous sampled drum parts, selected from an easily constructed sample kit. The preloaded kit distributed Rack747 includes a full range of the 808.
  • 16 seperate effects paths, and a wide range of essential effects:
    • high pass, low pass, band pass, and band reject filters.
    • sweepable equaliser.
    • tempo locked delay and feedback.
    • noise gate.
    • tube and soft clipping distortions.
    • flanger.
    • ring modulator.
  • 32 lfos, assignable to any parameter.
  • Integrated mixer and cross fader.
  • Full midi control.
  • User configurable color maps and panel bitmaps.

As a bonus, the package includes the latest edition of Qua, a complete audio and midi sequencer/recorder that integrates audio applications and media nodes. Together they present a complete techno studio solution:
  • mixing of loops, samples, midi data, and real-time audio nodes.
  • joystick control of Rack747.
  • fully automated controls linked with an easy-to-use system of onscreen envelopes.
  • integrated scripting, processing, and generative system.
  • advanced audio filtering and offline editting.
