Each parameter of this celebrated synthesizer has been measured and carefully modelled to bring you the famous sound of rave, techno or 80s and 90s pop. The original synth has been used by countless artists like e.g. Fatboy Slim, The Prodigy and Faithless. It massively shaped the origins of electronic dance music – switch on the Hoover!
Obsession brings the power of a great polyphonic vintage synthesizer to your fingertips. It combines the astute modeling of voltage-controlled oscillators (VCOs), voltage-controlled filter (VCF) and voltage-controlled amplifier (VCA) with a comprehensive individual voice control that has never been done before in this detail.
Sugar & Spice comprises 260+ sounds inspired by the stage keyboards and polyphonic synthesizers of the 80s and 90s. Although the presets focus on playability, more radical morphing is immediately available via Hive’s XY Pads (there are over 100 examples of this in the extra XY Showcase folders). Experienced keyboard players will appreciate the nuanced velocity and aftertouch response.
Mercury-8 synthesizer builds on renowned Mercury legacy with a passionate focus on detail and modern technical advancements. Every aspect of the original hardware has been meticulously modeled to capture the authentic sound and behavior that made the JP-8 so legendary. Furthermore, Mercury-8 goes “beyond Jupiter” by offering expanded polyphony, versatile modulation options, studio-quality effects, expressive performance capabilities, and even data exchange with the original hardware. These features not only surpass what was possible in 1981 but also exceed anything seen in software to date.
Vacuum Pro is a polyphonic analog synthesizer with vacuum tube circuit modeling that perfectly captures the crunchy, warm sound of the analog era. With four analog oscillators, multiple filters and envelopes, and built-in audio effects, Vacuum Pro lets you dive deep into subtractive synthesis to recreate those sought-after analog sounds from the 70s and 80s. Tweak the switches, knobs, and dials to program anything from basses, leads, pads, or unique sound effects. For even more warmth, Vacuum Pro has six virtual vacuum tube circuits that add crunch and grit at every stage of the signal path. Analog just got a whole lot warmer.
PS-3300 is an exactingly faithful virtual analog emulation of the colossal and ultra-rare semi-modular analog polyphonic synthesizer released by KORG in 1977. Cherry Audio has pulled out all the stops to accurately recreate and update this mythical monster synth, from its massive stacked sonic character and signature multiple‑resonator sweeps to the considerable patching capabilities that distinguished the PS-3300 from all other polysynths of the era.
What would a 303 on steroids be like? We answered that question using a mock-up by our friend AlphaDog and adding some more stuff like patch cables and polyphony, and it turned out to be a very different beast indeed. While ABL Pro has it’s roots in sequenced synth sounds it also excels at pads and leads and is something of a hidden gem for many producers. We guarantee you nothing else sounds quite like ABL Pro. The filter is based in the 202 filter which sports self oscillating resonance, accurate tuning and a great range (from sub bass to above upper hearing limit). This filter can howl! Most modules send or accept control voltage (CV) which means the signal path can be modified in real time without any glitches in the audio. Sequencer has CV Gate/Note output and can be used when playing ABL Pro in Note mode, monophonic- or polyphonically
