“POWERFUL HYBRID SYNTHESIS
ABSYNTH 5 is a synthesizer with exceptional sonic potential. Its specialty is unusual, evolving sounds created using a powerful, hybrid synthesis architecture and sophisticated modulation and effects. Dig in to more than 2,100 presets or start building your very own sound worlds.
ABSYNTH 5 is also a powerful effect plug-in for treating audio using its unique effects bank.
“Any Cable Everywhere
ACE belongs to a new generation of synthesizers developed with the latest, fastest computers in mind. ACE offers classic modular synthesis and more at a fraction of the cost of dedicated hardware. But like its hardware forebears, you can patch any output into any input: the number of different ways to connect modules together is practically infinite. Needless to say, you will never run out of cables!
The careful selection of modules and clear layout make ACE the ideal instrument for newcomers delving into the fascinating world of modular synthesis. But ACE also delivers the goods: like any medium-sized professional hardware system, ACE has enough synthesis power to keep you discovering new tricks for many years to come!
“Anima features two wavetable oscillators, a flexible modulation section and the powerful arpeggiator and comes with hundreds cutting-edge synth sounds for modern electronic productions.”
“A strong, layered synth texture”
“The Magic Mix
With its sound palette varying from heavy drum n’ bass stabs to angular arpeggiated electro bass lines, whatever your chosen genre, the 2600 is a truly versatile sound creation tool which still takes its place at the heart of today’s music.
With a unique combination of semi-modular architecture and fixed preset routing, it gave it the place of being one of the most versatile synths of the 1970’s.
A Legend is Back
The Arp 2600 was an iconic sound and Arturia has been faithful in recreating this amazing synthesizer. From the sound of the 3 oscillators to the original ‘grey face’ filter to the vast modulation routing abilities. You get all this and more.
“Auron expands the sound spectrum with 160 granular synthesis presets for floaty pads, intriguing textures and fascinating new timbres. Yet Auron also gives you the creative freedom to fritter away hours designing new soundscapes; the interface is easy to navigate, yet that simplicity belies the extent of the creative power available. With its arpeggiator module, Auron also lets you generate patterns and phrases from the synth signals. Auron is a one-stop sound generator with the potential to add captivating new sounds to your productions.”
“Bad Bad Bass and Bad Bad Lead are full of valve oscillator samples. The main differences between the two synths are the source waveforms – low and aggressive or high and snarly… their primary oscillators are backed up by an additional, filthy, sine wave. In the shape of Drift, Drive, Distortion and Compression you also get Rhythmic Robot’s familiar tools for gaining attention. This little collection scores highly for its raw valve tones and for its simplicity – Sound on Sound magazine”

“Bazille – Digital Modular Synthesis
Bazille is a large modular system combining digital oscillators with analogue-style filters and modelled effects, with a flexibility that only modular patching can provide.
Bazille – Monster modular synthesizer
After ACE, the second spawn of our ongoing ‘Berlin Modular’ project, this one is a very different, much larger beast…
Those in the know have been waiting for this since 2009. Read Urs’ own story here.
“WEST COAST SOUND DESIGN PLAYGROUND
The Buchla Easel V is the first recreation of Don Buchla’s iconic instrument that helped define experimental West Coast modular synthesis in the early ‘70s. Our enhancements translate to vastly expanded possibilities for sound design and avant-garde music.
“– Превращает ваш компьютер в певца!
– Выразительный сольный, фоновый и хоровой вокал
– Редактор оценок с полной интеграцией хоста (VST / AU)
– 50+ готовых к использованию естественных и искусственных голосовых персонажей
– Поет на немецком и американском английском
– доступно для Windows XP и Mac OS X
Человеческий голос – наиболее сложный и универсальный инструмент, используемый в музыкальном выражении. С CANTOR прямо сейчас начинается захватывающая новая эра вокального синтеза в реальном времени! Представьте, что вы вводите текст на простом английском языке, а затем мгновенно «поете» текст, просто играя мелодию на своей MIDI-клавиатуре. Добавьте реалистичного выражения с параметрами в реальном времени, контролируя частоту и глубину вибрато или изменяя характер певческого голоса с женского на мужской!
Благодаря нашей новой технологии вокального синтеза VOSE * было достигнуто значительное улучшение качества звука и разборчивости. Диапазон голосовых персонажей практически неограничен: от голосовых персонажей роботов до очень выразительных и почти реалистично звучащих голосов.
Полностью переработанный редактор партитуры позволяет легко и быстро редактировать наиболее важные параметры звука, что дает вам доступ к мельчайшим деталям орфографии и выразительности вокальной партии. Все эти изменения можно выполнять в реальном времени: то, что вы слышите, вы получаете.
Новая функция импорта MIDI позволяет использовать информацию об изменении высоты тона и экспрессии. Это открывает совершенно новые возможности применения: если вы возьмете, например, анализирующую программу, такую как Melodyne от Celemony, вы можете взять «настоящую» вокальную партию и проанализировать ее. После импорта вы можете использовать эту вокальную линию и комбинировать ее с новым голосом, созданным CANTOR!
В состав CANTOR 2 входят более 20 готовых к использованию голосов с немецким и американским произношением. Обширные возможности для редактирования фонем и голоса позволяют легко создавать свои собственные индивидуальные голосовые персонажи – даже создание «новых» языков в ваших силах!
CANTOR 2 доступен как отдельная программа и как хост-плагин (VST2.4, AudioUnit) для платформ Windows XP и Mac OS X.
* VOSE – двигатель имитации вокала”
“Resounding hits
Chromaphone strikes in full dynamics with acoustic sharpness and precision.
Melodies, beats, and crazy soundscapes
Chromaphone uses acoustic resonators to create drums, percussion, mallet, string, and other unique instruments. They get sparked into life by a mallet and a flexible noise generator.
“Uniquely evocative… the kicker is the bank of ten harmonically pitched sine waves and their pan / level-modulating Uncertainty knob. Start mixing these in with the three main sounds and things get really weird – in a good way”
“PEERLESS SAMPLING CHARACTER
The CMI V is a spot-on reincarnation of the first commercially available digital sampling system in music history—the sonic powerhouse behind numerous early MTV-era megahits. We even went the extra mile and added new creative features that weren’t possible back in the day.
In 1980, the Fairlight CMI turned heads with the introduction of digital sampling. Now our software homage lets you turn some heads yourself.
“Cronk-O-tron is part of a new series of ‘MLM Lite’ products I’ll be banging out from time to time for ‘cup of coffee’ prices.
Cronk-O-Tron (as the name suggests) is a cheap and cheerful thing with a dark and crusty old tone. It’s made up of layers of stuff carefully blended to create a vintage/retro kind of strings/voice pad sound – lo-fi and wobbly.
It’s extensively multi-sampled in stereo and each sample was recorded for a minute before having long and luxurious loops applied that allow the sound to ‘breathe’.
