“Inspired by the world-famous analog synthesizers from yesteryear, Voltage adds the sonic range and monstrous power of true vintage style bass and offers lead sounds that exude the character and warmth that has inspired several generations of electronic musicians and producers. Whether played in monophonic or polyphonic mode, Voltage’s two oscillators feature connectible pulse-width modulation and a broad selection of wave shapes to bring that VA feel to your sounds: you can almost hear those virtual circuits crackle.”

“Light your Fire

VOX Continental-V brings back the classic sound of the famous VOX Continental 300 through our TAE® physical modeling technology.

It’s Organic

We started with the classic and rare Vox Continental 300 dual manual organ and captured every nuance of the original, right down to the key contact timing and background noises. Beyond this we also modeled the follow up product from Vox inventor Tom Jennings…the J70 organ so you get two products in one.

“VoxSyn – Voice Controlled Synthesizer for iPad and iPhone

VoxSyn turns your voice into the most flexible vocal sound generator ever. Instantly following even subtle modulations of pitch and spectral changes of your voice VoxSyn creates signature vocal sounds far beyond traditional vocoding.

Talk or sing into the microphone and you’ll trigger various synthesizer sounds following your voice pitch or the notes touched on the hexagonal keyboard / external MIDI Keyboard. The basic sounds are selected from a vast pool of predefined sounds from the famous TERA synthesis engine which can be further expanded by its unique random sound generator.

The harmonic table note layout visualizes your voices pitch in realtime and also let you play notes for more traditional vocoder effects.

“Wave to Midi to capella

capella wave kit can be taken from a ready mixed audio file, e.g. wav or MP3, very accurately recognize and isolate the individual tones. “That’s like breaking a baked cake into its ingredients,” we once heard, and this comparison is pretty good.
But capella wave kit 2.0 can do something else: it can pick the raisins out of the cake.

With the new algorithm of “holistic recognition”, the three most important elements of a song are specifically recorded: lead vocals, harmonies, bass line. From this, capella wave kit quickly creates a new movement in the desired line-up and style.”

“The Return of a Classic

Wurlitzer-V is Arturia’s amazingly accurate physical model of the classic Wurlitzer 200A electric piano.

The Wurli 200A piano had a sound that could go from mellow and soft to hard and brash. This harder sound is what made it so popular in rock music as it could cut through a mix like a knife.

A soulful reproduction

Using advanced physical modeling we recreated this complex and dynamic sound.

The output can then be processed and shaped through a host of modeled guitar effects pedals. On the output we give you options like a guitar amp a Leslie rotating speaker or direct for making a vast array of sounds.
