Sugar Bytes Unique Analog Synth Virtual Instrument Software (Download)

Available for download, Sugar Bytes Unique is a virtual instrument offering the sound of an analog synthesizer, one that's suitable for dark pads and classic-sounding bass patches. It also provides a vowel filter that can be used to add esoteric flourishes to music and sound design.

The source of Unique's sounds are its dual oscillators with five waveforms, including Triple Saw and Triple FM algorithms that cover a wide range of sounds. The noise oscillator, complet with a built-in filter, can be used in a tonal mode to fuel the vowel filter and create interesting vocal sounds. Oscillators can be transformed into vowel formants as well.

In addition to the vowel functionality, the filters offer a classic mode for standard filtering. Each of the five filters has five individual modulators for further sonic tailoring. Modulators can be triggered in many different ways, including with individual notes, a sequencer, and an arpeggiator. The internal LFOs offer rate and intensity controls.

The internal controllers section contains a recordable, easily controlled XY field. You'll also find more than 300 presets on hand to get you started. This software is compatible with Mac and Windows operating systems. It will operate in AU, VST, AAX, and NKS formats. You can also use the software as a standalone instrument.
