Features:
- Play three synths at once.
- 8 distinct synth engines – Polyend Synth combines various synthesizing methods, such as Granular, Physical Modeling, FM, Wavetable, Virtual Analog, or Phase Distortion.
- Sequencers and Arpeggiators – Independently assign a sequencer or arpeggiator to each synth and control swing, groove, octave range, gate length, and more. Transposable sequences automatically adapt to the chosen scale.
- Smart Grid – allows for single-button chords and note followers that “will always be in tune”.
- Polyphonic Aftertouch – responds to your finger’s pressure independently on each pad. Every synth has up to five values that can be controlled with pressure.
- Combo Knobs – Combo knobs are customizable macros that can control one, two, or all three synths simultaneously.
- Three brand new effect engines – These customizable effects (delay, reverb, modulator) can be independently routed for each synth or effect engine.
- Scenes – Scenes combine synth engines, their parameters, patches, effects sends, macros, arps, sequences, and all other settings into a quickly accessible file.
- Full Control – The 3×3 knob matrix and dedicated parameter buttons provide all the controls needed to create advanced patches without menu diving.
- Responsive Visual Interface – Gain a deeper understanding of how parameters change. Every knob turn updates the interface with graphs, whether you change the LFO shape, filter, envelope, or oscillator.
- Expandable and Customizable – With SD and USB-accessible storage, sharing and customizing patches, effects, and Scenes is simple. Expand the engines by loading your Wavetables or Grain files.
