Review by SoundOnSound: The highlight for most VST Instrument fans will be the new A1 virtual analogue synthesizer developed by Waldorf. This sounds fantastic, and the factory presets demonstrate its versatility at producing bass, pad, poly, lead and effects patches, including plenty of those oh-so-popular virtual analogue sounds.
D’cota provides four ADSR envelopes and two freely synchronizable LFOs for each of the three synthesis forms. Eight different types of filter and two waveform generators feed two independent spectrum stages with user-definable curves. The integrated Morph function allows easy fading between the two spectra in real-time. With its delays, distortion units, modulators and three oscillators featuring more than 60 waveforms for frequency, pulse width and ring modulation, the breathtaking power of the D’cota effect section opens up new, previously unexplored soundscapes.
