A couple of months ago I found a reference to a video editing suite by Arboretum. But I don't think it's available anymore. One thing I found was this sales promo description. It's pretty tempting for folks like me with a vintage PTIII system. Sorry I don't know when this was published:

ARBORETUM
• HYPERPRISM
HyperPrism effects are now available as a TDM plug-in -- currently at version 1.01. This software lets you control two parameters (such as pitch and frequency) by dragging a point across a blue-coloured screen to set values according to the x and y positions within the screen. A wide range of effects is available, and, like GRM Tools, they are ideally suited to sound effects creation -- particularly for composers working to picture.

You get 14 real-time simultaneous effects: filters (low-pass, high-pass, band-pass, band-reject), vibrato, a ring modulator, pitch changer, flanger, balance, pan (auto pan, tremolo), stereo dynamics, more stereo, and M-S matrix. HyperPrism Consoles v1.2, including Max v3.0 TimeLine editing features, are also supplied with the software.

HyperPrism v1.1 (which should be available very soon) adds nine more effects: chorus, phaser, quasi stereo, hyper stereo, hyper pan (stereo tremolo, crossing pan, non-crossing pan, sweeping pan), and doppler. You also get new automation features and simultaneous MIDI control of all inserted effects.

You can either apply effects to your audio in real time using File mode, or use the Thru mode, which turns your HyperPrism TDM plug-in into a powerful multi-effects box. Built-in MIDI automation lets you record and playback effects variations using a Pro Tools MIDI track, and you can also control or edit your effects from any external MIDI device or OMS-compatible sequencer -- synchronised to MTC if necessary. Two instances of the same effect can be used per single DSP chip (except with the pitch changer, where you only get one instance per chip).

The excellent pitch-shifter can also be used as a harmoniser, and the new flanger delivers superb results, as does the ring modulator and the spatialisation effects. The filters offer resonance controls and much more. In short, the HyperPrism effects are of first-class quality.

I also found a PDF of a manual for Hyperprism TDM v2.5. I saw no credible references to liberated versions. Thanks for writing!
