Crumar DS-2 Synthesizer faithfully replicates the unique digital/analog sound of the ahead-of-its-time hardware synth from 1978. This latest collaboration with our friends at Crumar Instruments not only captures the distinctive tone and multitimbral capabilities of the original but also enhances them, offering an impressive combination of innovation and authenticity. The original Crumar DS-2 featured a monophonic synth engine paired with a 44-note fully polyphonic (paraphonic) companion section, creating a unique musical experience when utilized together. “DS” stood for “Digital Synthesizer,” and it was indeed an early hybrid synth with two Digitally-Controlled Oscillators (DCOs), and analog LFOs, VCFs, VCA, and EGs. But these weren’t the same kind of DCOs we would become familiar with in later polyphonic synthesizers. To avoid the tuning problems of traditional analog synthesizers, Crumar employed a cutting-edge concept in the Synth section to create oscillators that wouldn’t drift. The resulting waveforms, however, were completely stair-stepped, producing a gritty tone and wild harmonics.
DEEP/4 is a painstaking recreation of one of the most powerful multi-effects processors ever built: The Ensoniq DP/4. Every algorithm has been rebuilt at the lowest level from the original 24-bit DSP hardware. 43 algorithms, mathematically verified against the original DSP architecture. No guesswork. Import presets directly from the original hardware via SysEx — load classic libraries like Don Solaris’ Essentials Vol1 and hear them exactly as they were meant to sound.
VSS-2 takes filters from the VSE-2, the quad VCA compressor from the VSC-3, the discrete Gyrator EQ from VSE-4, and the tubes from VSM-4. They’re all combined into a carefully curated signal chain that stands with the best of high-end analog consoles. It takes your sound, cleans it up, smooths it out, enhances the tone, and adds warmth. It’s perfect for tightening up vocals, adding punch to drums, or breathing life into flat mixes – the complete Vertigo mixing console in one plugin.
