Epicor Advanced Manufacturing Execution System is designed for plastic molders, manufacturers who use repetitive processes and those who have an assembly process that involves multiple machines. It is designed to assist floor operators in monitoring and optimizing their plant operations.
Advanced MES helps manufacturers monitor their business and control it with real-time information on plant and machinery. The system allows users to identify inefficient allocations of resources to find new capacity for the business. It can also be used to record machine downtime, scrap and material waste in each production cycle.
The software provides real-time monitoring of processes, scheduling in real time and visibility into operations. Users can view production details and descriptors and monitor up to 100,000 cycles. Maintenance teams can access machine condition reports for planning preventive maintenance. Advanced MES integrates accounting and manufacturing estimating capability.

Hive 2
Hive 2, created by u-he, is a flexible software synthesizer aimed at producing exceptional sound quality while maintaining an efficient workflow. It boasts two oscillators that can create traditional waveforms or 2D wavetables, each able to utilize up to 16x unison and adjustable sub-oscillators. The synthesizer provides three unique sound engines—normal, dirty, and clean—enabling users to customize the tonal character of their audio. Additionally, Hive 2 features an intuitive drag-and-drop modulation assignment system, a modulation matrix with 12 slots that includes modifiers, and four customizable XY control pads for interactive sound shaping. Other noteworthy attributes include an arpeggiator, a step sequencer with real-time recording capabilities, a distinctive 8-step shape sequencer that offers four independent outputs, and a selection of seven effects that can be rearranged, such as distortion, chorus, delay, phaser, EQ, reverb, and compressor. The user interface is adjustable from 70% to 200% in size and comes with an alternative Izmo skin for aesthetic variety. Furthermore, Hive 2 includes more than 2,400 factory presets that are ready for NKS integration, making it a powerful tool for music production. This combination of features makes Hive 2 an attractive option for both novice and professional sound designers alike.

Vital
Revitalize your wavetables by exploring the spectral oscillator warping feature in Vital, which manipulates a waveform's harmonics to produce a wide array of unique shapes and timbres from a basic audio source. You can transform your own audio samples into wavetables by utilizing Vital's pitch-splice or vocoding wavetable converter, allowing for endless creative possibilities. Additionally, the built-in wavetable editor offers the capability to create wavetables from scratch or even generate them from text inputs. Vital is designed as a visual synthesizer, presenting an engaging experience where you can observe animated controls, filter responses, waveforms, smooth LFOs, oscilloscopes, spectrograms, and other visual aids. With all animations operating at a smooth 60 frames per second and being GPU-optimized, your CPU can be dedicated solely to audio processing tasks. The modulation system within Vital is efficient and user-friendly, featuring a drag-and-drop workflow that enables quick adjustments. Before finalizing any modulation, Vital provides a preview, allowing for rapid experimentation without the risk of disrupting your sound. This combination of features makes Vital an indispensable tool for sound design enthusiasts.
