Snapback: The Instant Drum Layering Effect

[@Cableguys]

Try Snapback on your drums and get it on Black Friday sale at www.cableguys.com/snapback

[@sfleeee]

Can’t this already be done in shaperbox?

[@cat-boi]

Will the Black Friday sale be lower than its current price?

[@Cableguys]

@@cat-boi These are the Black Friday sale prices, so they won't get lower - so you can get the best deal now without waiting 👍

[@Cableguys]

No, ShaperBox does not layer one-shot samples on or before transients.

[@jonah4580]

Well there be an AUV3 version?

[@Oversampled]

Dude this may be the most useful plugin of 2024

[@EBMZEQUENZER]

are you serious ?😁😁😁

[@victorfunnyman]

oversampled is alive whew

[@obiwantschernobyl5650]

Totally. This erases so much headache i can't believe it

[@Dutimus247]

Bro! What a finish to 2024

[@MJ-qd3jg]

​@@EBMZEQUENZER basically yes

[@eilzaanpro1223]

This is such a time saving plugin. It's what the world need, not another emulation of 1176.

[@AVDRE]

Yes! agreed

[@d1str3ss0r]

Facts!

[@kwarrenmusik]

Lol Agree!

[@SomberSkies_000]

For real. Im so tired of analog emulations

[@adirsab]

need more 1176

[@dogma_Jo]

Really kool idea hope you'll add a randomise feature, so that every hit sounds a little bit different

[@Phadddy]

I second that

[@mellejutte757]

Yes! Little subtle changes would be great

[@PurpleBoy-ow5nu]

or midi controls for different sounds similar to 5:40

[@Cableguys]

Great feature wish, definitely! While it's not exactly the same, for now you can add variation via automating parameters such as the pitch, filter, decay, .. Also if you set Dynamics to be other than 100% it does not follow the transient's volume exactly, which also creates some variation.

[@Phadddy]

....ooooor have Shaperbox behind it with slowly sound changing presets...why can't it be part of Shaperbox, so you can offer modulating presets? I guess in that case it needs to be on a return track to not affect the original.

[@EncounterCaneCorso]

In an over saturated market, you guys continue to innovate. This absolutely will save me time and frustration. Buying it now!

[@TheFoo_Fighter]

I've never heard the term "AI" once in this video and I love it! This is the plugin I didn't know I needed

[@JT-qc2nb]

This will be the first plugin in 2024 I've determined that is worth my money. Tried it for 10 minutes and purchased it. Nice work, great way to add some interesting sounds to boring stuff.

[@SomberSkies_000]

@@JT-qc2nb Absolutely. I think itll also be the only plugin ill buy in 2024

[@BlackAera]

The type of plugin other companies would sell for $149. Instant purchase. This is a huge time saver. Cableguys you generous madlads. May I add a request: Give us a function to trigger the snapback layer for only every other hit.

[@Cableguys]

There's a few ways to trigger only every other hit: - Automate snapback or transient on/off. - Duplicate your audio track, remove eg. every other snare in your copy and route the copy to Snapback's sidechain input. - Use Snapback's MIDI Out (in its Trigger panel), record the MIDI notes, remove the notes you don't want, and then set up Snapback to work on MIDI notes.

[@johndozesoph4136]

at that point though, and with all those tremendously silly workarounds to try and still justify your plugins existence, you may as well have just did the whole thing in audio....i could probably put together an entire 16-32 bar sequence with reverse bits and pre-transients placed where i want them to be rather than every single hit ,before i worked around all that to get them to be where i wanted them to be. You don't see how this is a very roundabout solution that adds extra steps that nobody needed until they took purchase of this plugin? ShaperBox gets daily use here, but this plugin is daft to be completely honest with you

[@BlackAera]

@@Cableguys Automation would require more manual work, which this plugin seeks to remove. Duplicating the track would also require a duplicate mixer channel, one with Snapback and one without and iirc Snapback adds latency. Not sure if I want to include such a setup into my workflow. If I use the MIDI trigger option, will Snapback still work as intended and respect my phase and time stretching settings? It only adds latency to the mixer channel but not the MIDI track used to trigger it right? Shouldn't Snapback be delayed then if I use a MIDI track that's not going into the same mixer channel as let's say the kick drum I manually tuned, phase flipped and time shifted to work perfectly with the transient layer? Jesus my head is spinning. Can't you just think about adding this teeny tiny built in feature to save us from all these extra steps and considerations? After allSnapback is supposed to make stuff easier for us right? Might as well make it more feature packed to solve common issues for different genres.

[@Cableguys]

@@BlackAera @johndozesoph4136 Sure, having this built-in into Snapback would be even better, I agree to that! For now you can use my proposed workarounds, or you can simply do it without Snapback right in your DAW. Sometimes Snapback will still be faster despite the workaround - e.g. for finding the right moment for the trigger, for aligning the phase (in Detail mode), or for browsing snapback sounds without the need to manually align each sound. Sometimes doing it directly in your DAW will be faster. We just provide options.

[@kxng7207]

I say this as politely as I can but both of you guys are being brats to be honest. These workarounds are already less time and work than doing this manually. It’s one thing to make a recommendation for future updates/versions but to criticize the plugin because it didn’t cater exactly to your needs is bratty

[@obiwantschernobyl5650]

At least one of them must be a producer or maybe they work closely with producers. The way they solve daily production problems and offer workflow shortcuts is just mind blowing. Im an edm producer and dealing with said problems and didnt find tools specifically made for this exact problem. Thank you so much im glad i wont ever have to arrange snapbacks and transients on arrangement view anymore. This is a big level up in terms of workflow. You guys just rock.

[@Cableguys]

Thanks for your nice words! Yes, we all love doing music! All our ideas derive from actual music making.

[@PHIplaytesting]

It says in the video they worked with BT 😁

[@robinraf]

the cableguys have been killing it for yearsss

[@greyline_BK]

Total game changer. Thank you so much for making something unique!

[@prod.trubletuc]

Probably the best effect plugin I've seen in years, this is godly

[@crownandcaster]

Cableguys has such great plugins and tutorials. I happily purchased this the day it came out and took it for a drive. It’s perfect. Love you guys!

[@Digital_Mozart]

You guys really knocked it out the park again, can't wait to try this I already got mad ideas flowing through my brain

[@JoelGarcia-w7x]

This plugin should easily win an award...wow!!!

[@djzardonic]

Loving every bit of this!!!

[@LukeBergs]

Best Plugin of 2024 for me!

[@GRAVYBEATS]

Love your plugins guys, this one was also an insta buy for me. keep them coming 🙌 One feature I'd like to see is an option to reverse the imported sample inside the plugin.

[@mattrix5970]

Genius. It is getting more difficult to come up with truly original plugins but hats off you guys have done it again, another insta purchase!

[@JesseChisholm]

As someone who almost never uses a drum sample without layering, THANK YOU. Game changer!

[@kyledenmead_]

Dude ur absolutely killing it. Perfect timing too I was just doing this manually last night and it takes forever

[@rawdrian8393]

gives me excellent dan worrall level vibes. cableguys putting out the real good shit, useful, sleak, lovely!

[@Cableguys]

We are big fans of Dan Worrall here! He even did two(!) videos on our ReverbShaper: kzbin.info/www/bejne/q2nLpXqoeMagnq8 and kzbin.info/www/bejne/en3NeXt8frZrhJI

[@StaminaMC]

This was the literal 'missing piece' for me. Five mins was all I needed… copped. 💸

[@zoproducties5680]

One third into the video I changed my mind on the subject of buying new plugins. You guys make it excessively hard. Thanks a lot. Another great piece of work.

[@MegaBobbaker]

Me too … !!! This is a game changer !!! Scaler 2 also

[@oleg3819]

I use all your great plugins and thought I didn't need anything else until you made Snapback. It's 🔥

[@BooBassKing]

That's a plugin that I really need!

[@compucorder64]

I'm thinking this will be literally all over records released over the next year. It's an awesome plugin, instantly grabbed it at the intro price.

[@zenoalteamusic]

Insane quality for an amazing price. You guys never fail to impress

[@Derpcat]

asolutely MINDBLOWING, always wanted something like that

[@brianlespoir6287]

It's that time of the year again and Cableguys does not disappoint. I love it, love the pitch control. Great job! Again!

[@ScottThePisces]

Shaperbox's noise tool has been my go to for adding transients to my drums, the ability to add presweeps with this is insane! & you even thought about adding a limiter! Instant buy.

[@CesarMorera82]

I am definitely getting this one, looks like a great product right from start. The add your own sample is amazing to add some foley or your click and top sample for a variety of drums sounds.

[@brkofdon]

Lots of really interesting features that give more life to your sounds and exponentially increases your current sound library.

[@steril-official]

Great plugin, perfect video presentation/tutorial. Love you guys!

[@Joe90Production]

You guys are smashing it lately! Great plugin.

[@reeloy3045]

...congrats, cableguys....THIS is an instant must have tool...solves all modern day vibe problems within a few clicks.....like ur shaperbox, another timeless truu sonic pro tool, no producer can go on without....

[@dervlo9091]

Got this added to me recent purchase after watching this video, no complaints, hadn’t even considered a tool like this to speed up track building but this will definitely help, thanks guys for adding this 👍

[@morganpage]

Congrats guys! Big release

[@Beastmode-hk3fj]

What a great tool, bought it halfway watching this video. Another Cableguys hit!

[@KisnouMusic]

Finally! I think this will be super useful, I'm sure I'll use this a lot :)

[@basspartout]

This looks absolutely fantastic! Very well done, congrats Cableguys!

[@3volvemusic]

This plugin is legit going to improve my quality of life across the board

[@PianomanMusic96]

Cableguys RULE. What a plug in.

[@jeremiahaugust5886]

I bought this as soon as i was able earlier today. I GRAVELY needed this. This will save me sooo much time when mixing!! Thank you!!

[@xtiyan]

bought this plugin...it's AMAZING! Makes a nice pop record shiny and fresh tbh!

[@Cableguys]

So great to hear!

[@jeffspencer8631]

Hey Cableguys team! Absolutely loving the user-friendly and versatile design of your new plugin - it’s inspiring to see such intuitive tools in the music production world! Just a thought: your GUI has so much potential for even more creativity! Have you ever considered developing a one-shot sampler with the same open, user-friendly approach? I feel like a well-crafted one-shot sampler, with the flexibility and seamless workflow we’ve come to expect from Cableguys, would be a game-changer. There’s really nothing out there that nails it perfectly, and you all seem like the perfect team to bring it to life. Thanks for continuously pushing boundaries and enhancing the creative process for producers everywhere!

[@BenCaesar]

Dope! 💥Not to be that guy who has a suggestion as soon as the plugin drops but hear me out it's a good one:....Round Robin option to give more variation and flavour.

[@futureich7378]

You did it again. This plugin is fire! I love love love it.

[@shanestephenson]

This is a damn good one Cableguys. I see this being an immediate part of so many people's go-to plugin arsenal.

[@eizvoleas]

Congrats cableguy’s 🙌🏼

[@ARCASIAUK]

The transient layer - particularly snare tail feature is a timesaver! Will definitely grab this!

[@inpeler]

Cableguys now you are officially geniuses!

[@serkanboyekin]

This plug in sounds very impressive and saves so much time. Well done Cableguys well done👏👏

[@xrabbz2010]

This is an instant buy for me, just today i was moaning about creative pre shifts during a collab! Aboslute genious idea for a plugin I love it

[@Cableguys]

We added an Easter Egg in the outro of the video. The first person who finds it (please answer as a reply to this comment) will get a Cableguys Bundle, worth €179 / $179 (currently on Black Friday Sale for €179 / $179) - www.cableguys.com/products The Cableguys Bundle includes Snapback, ShaperBox, HalfTime, etc

[@HyperNova137]

Has to be something really obscure... Cuz I'm lookin' hard as hell and I don't see nuthin!

[@ozzy3ml]

you've reduced the price to $149, not $179? (76% off vs 71% in this video at 10:03). Or is it the red update dot on HalfTime (some new content for it, or new version)?

[@Cableguys]

@@ozzy3ml Interesting! That was not the Easter egg I meant, but qualifies for a free Snapback! Can you drop me an email to [e-mail] ?

[@allcoatpainting8515]

Tough one. Looked at it closely a couple times, nothing jumped out as odd except for your Commentary video window “snapped to the back” of the 75% black screen. Long shot, but thats all I got. lol

[@brettclarinmusic]

The filter pattern in Curve looks like writing, but I can't read what it says 😅 This looks amazing.

[@jan_terlouw_junior]

Instant buy, exactly what 2024 needed. I find every single one of your plugins fun and inspiring :) thanks!

[@bjulin]

An actually useful tool... well done CG! 👌

[@Hexspa]

Seems cool. Might want to integrate some internal sidechain so the transient smashes the hit coming into it. All the demos in this video sound good, but this prevents phase conflicts and is usually something I do with fades.

[@fanusamurai]

I mix & master daily for my living. Bought Snapback last night and have already used it 3 times today in client mixes. So good!

[@joeminosaur]

Yes Fanu! Glad it’s already come in useful 👊

[@jonnjones]

this is a big time and headache saver, specially nowadays where there are so many throwaway versions of the same plugins. really cool and useful

[@nikoloniusTV]

I love you guys. This plug is a dream. Saw the video and bought it. Love from Austria ❤️

[@AuroraBPolaris]

This is a 2024 modern plugin, something that doesn't re-invent the wheel, but actually saves time and streamlines the process, especially when you can import your own foley samples!

[@jjolsson1863]

Best plugin this year.

[@AlexNiedt]

Amazing workflow enhancement

[@Blepherk]

Aside from the amazing useful plugins, great customer service, they won my loyalty

[@hey_maurice]

I swore the other day that I wasn’t buying ANYTHING for Black Friday and now y’all drop this. Damn it. 😅 *gets out wallet*

[@Rhekluse]

This is so cool. Just copped it. Nice Black Friday price. 🔥

[@alangreen142]

Take my money, the time this plugin is gonna save is a god send… you’ve done it again lads🔥

[@ishbeck]

AWESOME!!! Yet another great idea put into existence in an intuitive and easy to use way! Impressive, thank you!

[@jesseeatsbrains]

AND it still works for people who have Mac OS 10.13 or higher?! You guys are real gangsters for that! I’m running 10.14 and this is a GOD send

[@denmilli]

I'm a simple man, as soon as I see a new plugin from Cableguys, clicking buy straight away 😁

[@G-O-N-x]

Nice ! 👏 Would've loved an "auto phase align" tool included

[@dovydasgataveckas427]

Bought it less than a minute into the video.. this is really great!

[@EternalRecurrence88]

I don’t have a sample library, or ever heard of the snapback technique… this is pretty dope.

[@sese6344]

Never felt so good after buying a plugin - I bought the bundle a week ago and instantly got access to this for free. Thank you very much Also looking forward to listen more of your music, you have an awesome taste of detail and drum groove as well. 👍

[@Cableguys]

Joe also just released an amazing track, I find - listen to "Elevator Pitch" here: www.youtube.com/@joeminosaur

[@kxng7207]

This looks amazing. Bought it right after watching the video. Will update after using it

[@schrievo4187]

Just upgraded multiple old beats with this plugin. It‘s such a game changer🙏 I‘d wish there was a feature for reversing samples in the snapback Controller. Just added a drum Kit to my user folder but sadly I would have to reverse and export my sounds for them to be usable snapback sounds Maybe an idea for future updates 🫡

[@bobrv8]

@Cableguys great solution to a sometimes time consuming problem. One feature I cannot see is altering the snapback/transient length. I see decay but suggest having a (S)tart/(E)nd bar in the sample window that can be dragged. In an update it would be useful to have a 2nd Body Layer. Great work and entry value.

[@ClaudeYoung]

This is such a brilliant idea and from Cableguys & BT!!!! Im sold!!!!!

[@alexv4907]

I've always heard the "snapback" referred to as a "pre-transient." Awesome to see that and phase alignment packaged into one plugin.

[@Chat_AKA]

this plugin is so clean.

Oh Hell yea THIS IS USEFUL

[@iyerpratik]

What a fucking insane plugin idea. You never seize to amaze. Sold me a product that I never needed. Cableguys 👋🏼

[@adityaghosal1000]

Such a great plugin. I wish you guys added a way to add multiple triggers at different velocities, something very similar to Slate Trigger or Drumagog. The sheer intuitiveness of this plugin with those features would literally make this the best Drum replacement plugin for any genre .

[@hearmenow909]

Couldn't you just use automation to go that?

[@adityaghosal1000]

@@hearmenow909 You can but you also get the option of layering multiple triggers as well, which you really cant do with Snapback right now. Giving the option of multiple triggers opens up so many avenues for this plugin. It would be a one stop plugin for any drum replacement.

[@Mike_Benz_]

This plugin is dope, great job. A reverse sample feature would be dope for each sample section.
