The man behind Linplug has announced his latest creation - the Omega Sample Synthesizer for VST2.0 / PC.
The Omega is the third member of the GakStoar family and offers typical GakStoar features like numerous modulation options. Omega also includes some new features such as the Sample Oscillator or the Sound Shaping
Delay unit.
The Omega Sample Synthesizer has a classic analogue oscillator and a sample oscillator. The sample
oscillator loads WAV or AIFF files (up to 32-bit / 96kHz). The sample can then be time stretched
independent of its pitch and pitch shifted independent of its length, all in realtime with
all modulation options.
The 24-voice polyphonic synth routes the oscillators through an analogue modelled multimode filter. As
modulations sources it offers three ADSFR Envelopes (like ADSR plus an additional fade parameter
when sustain is reached) and two well equipped LFOs. Of course all common controllers are supported.
Omega also includes a delay for each sound program, and LinPlug's ECS for setting up
MIDI controllers. Timing is sample accurate and automation and postprocessing functions of VST2.0
compatible sequencers are supported.
The Omega Sample Synthesizer is currently in beta will be available at the LinPlug online shop by the end of April. The price is to be determined.
System requirements: A VST2.0 capable sequencer software and a PC with at least 266MHz
