Free sound set for the Modal Cobalt 8 synthesizer.
The company, Modal Electronics has released Baltica, a new sound set for their COBALT8 line of synthesizers.
The Baltica, created in collaboration with sound designer Soundsauca, is available now as a free download from both Modal and Soundsauca.
Here’s what they have to say about it:
“BALTICA includes one hundred synth patches. Music producers and synth performers can play and record with the massive array of warm basses, wide pads, energizing plucks, and soaring leads and new avant-garde synth textures that take full advantage of the unique Extended Virtual-Analogue synth engine with 34 sophisticated algorithms, the morphable 4-pole Ladder Filter and the comprehensive modulation matrix.”
The COBALT8 is available in three variants, with 37 or 61 keys and as rack module.
Modal Electronics introduced COBALT8, its new 8-voice VA synthesizer that promises an extended feature set. In other words, Model Electronics encourage players to go beyond the ‘real’ analog synths and do not underestimate the feature as it is far beyond the limits of its analog forefathers.
The new Cobalt8 VA synth features an 8-voice polysynth that boasts an innovative oscillator engine, a morphable 4-pole ladder filter, a multitude of modulation options, a real-time step sequencer and an arpeggiator. It has a 37-note Fatar keyboard, MPE support, effects and MODALapp integration.
In addition, VA synth has 64 independent oscillators and you can use up to eight per voice. Each of its algorithms has just two specially-selected controls – the oscillators can call on not only virtual analogue waveforms but also 34 complex algorithms like sync, ring modulation, waveform morphing and more.
