Exciton is virtual analogue VSTi synth from Japanese developers Groovecube Technologies. 64 voice polyphonic(max): Number of voices is variable from 1 to 64. Unison mode (triggering the all voices for one key) is available for making fat sounds. Portamento is available for both unison/polyphonic modes.
ACID Pro 10 – where creativity meets inspiration. The DAW for all producers who demand the highest standards for their music productions.Made for producers who can tell the difference.

While an Embracer may sound like a character from an Arnold Schwarzenegger film, in SX it’s a new polyphonic synthesizer that specialises in producing pad and atmospheric sounds. On the whole, Embracer features a relatively simple and unfussy user interface, and it’s capable of producing some very usable sounds. However, perhaps its most intriguing feature is the surround sound output option, of which more in a moment.
Tonic emulates the characteristics of an analogue filter and is similar to the filter within the Monologue synth. It can be switched between mono and stereo output, has low-pass, band-pass and high-pass modes, various envelope-triggering modes, a step sequencer for LFO shape, and an X/Y matrix pad for additional real-time modulation of any two of the plug-in’s parameters.
Monologue is a monophonic virtual analogue synthesizer based on physical modelling technology and primarily intended for producing bass or lead sounds. It features two oscillators, with choices of sawtooth, square and sub waveforms for Osc 1, and sawtooth, square and triangle waveforms for Osc 2. Oscillator 2 also features PWM control, which adjusts the pulse width of the square wave. The Sync button synchronises the pitch of Osc 2 to that of Osc 1, and when this is active adjusting the pitch of Osc 2 alters tone rather than pitch.
The B-Comp is a stereo compressor. it was originally designed after testing diode bridge compressors. The Vintage/Modern options vary the attack and release characteristics of the processor and will vary the ‘colour’ of the output. Switch between them to hear the difference and select what works for you. This switch has more to do with ‘colour’ or ‘feel’ of the sound
