Spatial
The fully integrated 3D engine allows you to create unbelievable sounds.
Oscillators
Multiple oscillators and wave modifiers, to obtain fantastic sounds.
Arpeggiator
A modern approach to the Arpeggiator and Sequencer.
Frequency Modulation
Add modern FM synthesis and create amazing sounds.
Filters
Subtractive synthesis, with independent filters, to obtain wonderful results.
Pitch
Use new pitch effects, to create unique sounds.
Effects / Mix
A Mixer and audio effects that help you to shape the sound
Matrix
The maximum flexibility for the ultimate power - anything is possible.
Extras
Envelope Generators and LFOs are never too many.
