03In depth

Sound Character and Analog-Modeled Filter

The filter covers a wide range, from subtle warmth to gritty, overdriven saturation. Universal Audio positions it for massive bass and punchy leads that need no extra layering.

Paraphonic chords are another focus. The developer describes them as a way to combine fat mono tones with poly-style chords for textures that sit between a mono lead and a pad.

Step Sequencing and Lo-Fi Effects

The step sequencer is built for evolving patterns, polyrhythms and generative grooves. It can handle a simple eighth-note riff as well as acid-style basslines.

The onboard effects include a chorus, a flanger, a spring reverb and a tape echo, all modeled from analog gear. They are meant to add depth, width and vintage lo-fi character within the same instrument.
