Audiovisual Installation Explores The Art Of Acoustic Additive Synthesis
frequencies (a / continuum) is an audiovisual installation, created by Nicolas Bernier, that lets users explore acoustic additive synthesis. The work was inspired by the Helmoltz Sound Synthesizer, considered by some to be the first electronic synthesizer. Here’s what Bernier has to say about the project:
UVI Intros Energy Synthesizer, Inspired By Rare Digital Keyboards Synergy
UVI has introduced Energy – a new virtual instrument, inspired by the rare Digital Keyboards Synergy keyboard. Here’s what they have to say about it: UVI ENERGY delivers the rare and complex sounds of the 32-oscillator Digital Keyboards Synergy. With commercial production ceasing 30 years ago and a total run of less than a thousand… Read More UVI Intros Energy Synthesizer, Inspired By Rare Digital Keyboards Synergy
Dark Synth Brings Additive Synthesis To Ableton Live + Max4Live
Amazing Noises has released Dark Synth, a new Max for Live synthesizer that marries the vast possibilities of additive synthesis with an intuitive interface. With Dark Synth’s 2048 independently-controllable partials (sine wave oscillators) it’s possible to create everything from classic waveforms such as sawtooth and square, to complex custom waveshapes. But this is only the beginning… Read More Dark Synth Brings Additive Synthesis To Ableton Live + Max4Live
Propellerhead Releases Parsec ‘Spectral’ Synthesizer
Propellerhead today announced its new Parsec spectral synth, calling it “the futuristic sound of additive synthesis for the Reason rack.” Propellerhead describes its Parsec user interface and synthesis engine as having been designed to suit both the novice and the “PhD of sound synthesis” alike. Parsec has two sound engines, and each generator boasts up… Read More Propellerhead Releases Parsec ‘Spectral’ Synthesizer
Virsyn Intros Cube Synth For iPad
Virsyn has introduced Cube Synth – a new software instrument designed to combine the power of additive synthesis with easy editing and morphing capabilities. Here’s what Virsyn has to say about Cube Synth: Intelligent sound morphing capabilities enables you to easily create complex evolving sound scapes, vocal phrases or stunning rhythms simply by choosing up… Read More Virsyn Intros Cube Synth For iPad
‘Dirty And Hot’ Synths, Loom & Vacuum Pro, Now Available
AIR Music Technology has expanded their virtual instrument offerings with Vacuum Pro Polyphonic Analog Tube Synthesizer and Loom Modular Additive Synthesizer: Vacuum Pro is a polyphonic ‘analog tube’ synthesizer. Loom is a new modular additive synthesizer. Here are the details.
Sinevibes Intros Torsion Hybrid Synthesizer For OS X
SineVibes had introduced Torsion, a new monophonic Audio Unit synthesizer that offers multiple synthesis technologies and modulation sources. Torsion’s sound structure is similar to a traditional subtractive synthesizer – three oscillators going into a low-pass filter and into an amplifier. But Torsion’s oscillators are different: they produce simple additive waves based on just a few partials, which are then… Read More Sinevibes Intros Torsion Hybrid Synthesizer For OS X
AIR Intros Loom Modular Additive Synthesizer
At the 2013 NAMM Show, AIR Music Technology introduced Loom Modular Additive Synthesizer. Using a modular approach, Loom is designed to make additive synthesis both powerful and easy to control. Loom provides 30 sound modules, each with a distinct function—moving filter, octaver, repeater, second tone, etc. Up to 10 of these modules can be connected in… Read More AIR Intros Loom Modular Additive Synthesizer
64 Presets For Addictive Synth For iPad
Sunsine Audio has released 64 presets for Addictive Synth for iPad. Addition explores the depth and range of Addictive Synth, including support for the XY pad. “The sounds range from fresh bass, lead and pad sounds to extraordinarily rich, swirling bursts and morphing textural landscapes.” said Fletcher Kaufman, lead sound designer and owner of Sunsine… Read More 64 Presets For Addictive Synth For iPad
