Виртуальный инструмент Scanned Synth Pro , плагин формата VST (Windows, планируется версия для MacOS), использует относительно новую технологию Scanned Synthesis (разработана в конце 90-х), представляющую собой нечто среднее между физическим моделированием и таблично-волновым синтезом. Инструмент может производить сложные звуки постоянно изменяющегося характера, при этом имеет простое управление и традиционные элементы (фильтры, LFO, эффекты). Есть функции рандомизации и MIDI-автоматизации. Поддерживаются процессоры с SSE/SSE2. Прилагаются 208 пресетов. Бесплатный вариант Scanned Synth Mini отличается тем, что не предоставляет прямой доступ к редактированию параметров — новые звуки можно получать только посредством функции рандомизации. Кроме того, нет поддержки процессоров с SSE/SSE2. Пэтчи инструментов совместимы.
Scanned Synth Pro for Microsoft Windows is now available for purchase worldwide from our shop at an astonishing price of 99.99 USD/59.99 Euros!
Scanned Synth uses a unique new form of synthesis inspired by advances in digital music theory. It is designed to create rich complex digital tones and fantastic sound effects, while using simplifed controls and traditional synths techniques such as filters, lfo's and effects.
Perfect for biting metallic growls, movement filled pads, and weird modular-like sound effects, ScannedSynth Pro provides a unique sound that is constantly changing and new every time you press a key. Featuring a revolutionary synthesis engine, combining the powers of both Physical Modelling and Wavetable synthesis, with simplified controls and full MIDI automation, ScannedSynth Pro is both simple and complex, powerful and easy to use. If you've heard enough of the same boring static sounds, if you've tired of the same old methods of synthesis, if don't want to sound like everybody else– then download ScannedSynth Pro – a step beyond the clones.
Why buy Scanned Synth Pro (and not just use Scanned Synth Mini)?
When you buy the full version of Scanned Synth Pro you get a revolutionary, fun and inspiring piece of professional quality software along with a huge range of preset sounds (111 of them at time of writing) that you can use immediately in your own productions. You also get immediate access to all new releases as well as technical support through the Humanoid Sound Systems web site (http://www.humanoidsounds.co.uk).
What you get in Scanned Synth Pro that you don’t get in Scanned Synth Mini:
A geometrical increase in the number of sonic textures that can be produced. Scanned Synth Pro also has a much wider variety of waveforms on which its sounds can be based than Mini (58 of them as opposed to 3 in Mini). The fact that these waveforms can be applied to the Hammer Shape, Mass Shape and Centre Wave parameters means that the range of sonic textures that can be produced using Pro is increased by 55 x 55 x 55 = 166375 times, and that’s before you start playing with all of the other 97 synthesis parameters! An audio input that can be used to feed Scanned Synth Pro's hammer and mass shapes making its sound even more dynamic. An envelope follower that follows the level of the audio input and can be used to modulate the synth's parameters. Context-sensitive help. Pro gives full access to all 124 plugin parameters as opposed to Mini that only gives access to the randomisation parameters. 111 great preset sounds as opposed to only 15 in Mini. An additional LFO type called "Random" that allows parameters to be modulated randomly to create unpredictable results. Support for processors with SSE and SSE2 instruction sets giving a performance improvement of between 33% and 50% over Scanned Synth Mini! The ability to load and save presets and banks from within the plugin to support hosts that do not provide this feature. Pro is continually updated whereas there are no plans to add any more features or improvements to Mini.
