Dualism
Dual Phrase Arpeggiator MIDI Plug
Overview
Dualism is a plug-in version of the dual phrase arpeggiators and 2X MIDI utilities found within M-theory and, as such, provides you with the ability to arpeggiate/double any other synth you wish, including hardware synths.
Combining two flexible and programmable phrase arpeggiators with a pitch and speed controllable MIDI doubler, Dualism allows you to create arpeggiations that are far more complex and detailed than your standard synth arpeggiator. However, all this flexibility is contained within a small and straightforward interface, letting you quickly and comfortably create complex patterns without having to feel slowed down by the UI.

Copy Protection: None!
I prefer to not annoy my customers with ineffective and intrusive copy protection methods that would still get cracked and that warez users never see anyway. Instead I'd rather that my customers enjoy a more comfortable and easy installation experience. Therefore I have chosen to not use any copy protection at all, making installation a breeze. All you have to do is open the zip and drag/drop the folder within it to your VST directory.
That doesn't mean this is freeware or shareware, though. Please do not distribute your copy. If your friend wants a copy, encourage them to buy their own. I try to keep my prices low so that my software is affordable to the majority of computer musicians.
EULA
- Do not distribute my plug-ins or install them on other people’s computers. When you purchase one of my commercial plug-ins you are getting a single user license. If you know someone who might like this product, please encourage them to buy copy of their own. So feel free to spread the word about how great these plug-ins are, but just don’t spread the plug-ins themselves.
- Feel free to use the supplied presets in your songs - but just don't distribute samples created from of them. Those sounds are the creations of other people and it is not fair to them if you profit from reselling their work.
- You are using this software at your own risk. While I do what I can to prevent trouble, I claim no responsibility for damage to your hardware, software, income, reputation, sleep habits, hat size, or person should something go wrong.
- You may transfer your license if you wish, but you must arrange it with me first so the new owner can get tech support and updates.
Installation
Just open the zip, drag/drop the folder into your VST directory and you're done. That's it...no annoying installers, copy protection, or registration.
License Transfers
If you find that you are no longer getting much use out of your purchase, you can transfer your license to someone else. Just let me know the name and email address of who it is going to so that the new owner can receive updates and support.
Bugs - Dualism
Multi-core processors + Multiple Instances
Unfortunately VSTs built with older versions of SynthEdit (such as this one) are not properly compatible with multi-core processors. Single instances work fine, but multiple instances can cause crashes in hosts that have multi-processor support activated. As time allows I will be working on updates to all my plug-ins using the latest version of SynthEdit, which will eliminate this bug.
In the meantime, there are a few workarounds for this issue.
1. Make additional copies of the dll for each extra instance you expect to need, and give each a new name. (eg: Dualism2.dll, Dualsim3.dll, etc.) Hosts consider each an individual instance, and therefore do not run into the multiple instance conflict.
2. Freeze each instance before loading another one, especially if your host has an “unload while frozen” option.
3. Turn off multi-processing in your host. Of course this is the least desirable.
Sequencer Reset
In some hosts, the sequencer may not reset properly - resulting in inconsistent start times during playback or rendering. I apologize for this and a fix will be included in the next update. For best results, start playback at the beginning of a bar with a little bit of pre-roll.
FL Studio Lag
FL Studio users may experience a lag between when you press play and when the sequencer starts. A lag also occurs when pressing the rewind button. This problem is caused by an incompatibility between this plug-in and the reset procedure FL runs every time you play/rewind.
To fix this problem:
1. Press the options button in FL studio (at the top of the screen)
2. Choose the Audio Settings from the drop down menu
3. Turn off “Reset plugins on transport"
