PLATFORM: WiN64 – STANDALONE/VSTi/VST3/AAX(MODiFiED)

Vintage ‘portable’ FM synthesizer

Chipsynth PortaFM is the first member of the chipsynth synthesizer line, a bit-accurate reproduction of a vintage low-cost 2 operator FM chip (OPLL) inside a new synthesizer design. PortaFM is a unique two operator FM synth with a very quirky feature set. The late 80’s ‘PSS’ series was cheesy and made of plastic but had a very unique sound which was lost to time. Some of the most well known examples of synthesizers in this series include the PSS-140, PSS-270 mini keyboards and the SHS-10 keytar. Not willing to just copy the past, Plogue designed a new synthesizer that features the same sound generation found in these synthesizers, but this time with much more processing power to control and modulate its features, all in a convenient virtual instrument form. PortaFM uses a pair of cycle-accurately emulated OPLL (YM2413) FM chip cores for its main synth engine, and another core dedicated to the the drum sounds, all of which can be layered creatively.

PLATFORM: WiN64 – STANDALONE/VSTi/VST3/AAX(MODiFiED)

We have specially created an entire emulation of the SHVC-SOUND module just for chipsynth SFC, covering both the digital and analog domains. We’ve used our signature comprehensive digital-recording matching approach, featuring our unique custom-built rigs, painstakingly thorough testing, and stubborn refusal to settle for anything less than a perfect match. The results speak for themselves: you can take digital captures of whole songs from the real original SNES, and the chipsynth SFC song player will match these captures absolutely perfectly, bit for bit! So to make sure you understand, chipsynth SFC is not made out of static samples recorded from an SNES but is rather a full recreation of how it plays YOUR samples!

 PLATFORM: WiN64 – STANDALONE/VSTi/VST3/AAX(MODiFiED)

Chipsounds authentically emulates several vintage 8-bit-era sound chips (plus variants), down to their smallest idiosyncrasies. It also faithfully allows you to dynamically reproduce the accidentally discovered sounds effect tricks and abusive musical techniques that were made famous by innovative chiptune composers and classic video game sound designers, which for the good part of the last 2 decades, have pushed beyond the boundaries of the original chip designs. chipsounds is powered in part by Plogue’s powerful ARIA 64-bit sampler/synthesis engine that also powers Garritan’s complete new product line (and is also featured in many third party applications). chipsounds reproduces the exact form spectra of the most sought-after classic sound chips, including their most well-known variations, as sonically accurate as possible without adding any non-authentic aliasing or DSP artifacts.
