Icarus is the most powerful synthesizer on the market. The award-winning audio engine offers a huge sonic range, true high-end sound quality, and the ability to create sounds that are impossible with other synths. The exceptionally versatile audio engine is capable of creating all important synthesizer sounds in high-end quality. Icarus is capable of over 30 (!) different synthesis methods, which can be combined:

3D Wavetables

3D Wavetable Synthesis cn create sounds impossible with other synthesizers and opens up a new level of dynamic expression. Classic wavetable synthesis only allows you to cross-fade waveforms. We have extended it with an extra 'morph dimension'. You can use 54 morph modes to further shape and modulate the sound. The morph modes are not limited to traditional waveshaping methods. We have also included a wide range of innovative and exclusive modes that are not available from other companies. This results in a wide range of unique sounds that cannot be produced by other synthesizers.

Resynthesis

Icarus comes with the most powerful and advanced re-synthesis engine on the market. Unlike competing products, it always delivers good results. With Icarus, anyone can create amazing sounds quickly and easily. Icarus' innovative resynthesis can rebuild sounds with a single mouse click! Just click this button, select a wav file, and Icarus will automatically create a patch that sounds like the original. You can further shape your sound with morphing, time-stretching, filters, effects, or any other module.

MERG-E For NI Reaktor 6.5

video upload by Antonio Blanca (antblanca)

"MERG-E is a sampler instrument for Reaktor 6.5, created for the exploration and transformation of audio through multiple simultaneous playheads (up to 8), loop memories, and a focused set of sound-shaping tools. Thanks to its Dynamic LAYERS system, it’s easy to move quickly between very different sonic results from lo-fi, broken, and tape-like textures to hyper-digital, chaotic, cinematic or minimal looping structures, all within a minimal interface designed to keep the focus on sound.

MERG-E is the result of a long process of experimentation around multi-playhead playback and loop manipulation, refined into a tool meant for fast, intuitive exploration with samples.

If you enjoy pushing recordings beyond their original context, I hope MERG-E finds a place in your workflow.

FEATURES:

- Create up to 8 Loop Slots to store different start and end points for the loaded sample

- Play Loop Slots or transpose them via MIDI notes

- Modulate Volume and Pan according to the playheads position

- Layer pitch can be quantized to preset intervals like Octaves, Fifths or Semitones, or fully shaped per layer using the Manual mode - Crush, Filter, Grain Delay with Pitch-shifting and Space effects

- VARIATE function to generate subtle sound variations or discover potential new sounds

- Includes 82 snapshots and 76 samples to explore and manipulate

- Optimized for real-time performance, allowing MIDI Learn and Automation on most parameters

- Light on CPU usage

NEW Rhodes Pianology Plugin - Complete Feature Breakdown

video upload by CatSynth TV

"We present Rhodes Pianology, a new plug-in from our friends at Rhodes that features acoustic, or "string-based" pianos. It includes detailed models of an electric grand, an acoustic grand piano, and an upright piano, with parameters to adjust the timbre of the model, along with modeled amps, tone controls, and effects. We go through all the features of all three models, plus a few of the factory presets.

Arturia Buchla Easel: Modular Presets + Patterns. Demo Jam

video upload by Anton Anru

"🧬 Genome Patterns is a collection of 64 patches with sequences for Arturia Buchla Easel V. The bank of presets contains dark, deep, atmospheric, harsh and aggressive sounds that have a wide range of uses: from cinematic to modular techno sequences.
🌪️ The soundset is inspired by the biology, cosmic vibe, and modular sounds.
Perfect for Techno, Industrial, Dub, IDM, Experimental, Cinematic and others.

📦 Get these sounds: https://antonanru.sellfy.store/p/ease...
👤 The author of the soundset is skendi (Arseniy Pushkov).

🧪 All sequences are in the RUN mode, allowing you to change the pitch while playing. Sequences also play in a loop, so they can only be stopped by pressing stop in your DAW or by turning the synth's volume down.
You can use the patterns in playback mode or record them separately and work creatively with the audio file.

🎚️ Each patch is performance-ready, with ModWheel assignments mapped for expressive control and making the preset brighter.

💡 Compatible with Arturia Buchla Easel and Analog Lab.
Contains .mex (Easel) and .labx (Lab) versions.
Make sure you are using the latest software/firmware version.

🔔 Minifreak, Pigments, and Buchla Easel presets can be imported into Arturia Analog Lab V.
If you like these sounds but don’t have Minifreak, Easel or Pigments and only own the Analog Lab V plugin, you can still purchase these sets and load them into Analog Lab V."
