With Chromaphone 3, AAS presents an impressive virtual synthesizer that - like its predecessor - is based on physical modeling. The extraordinary sounds are not based on oscillations, but on basic sounds like noise or hammer blows that excite resonators. Sounds wacky? It is

Designed from the ground up, the third version for MacOS and Windows combines the advantages of state-of-the-art acoustic object synthesis with the Live-optimized user interface to create a highly musical instrument. This gives you sounds of plastic depth that otherwise only real acoustic instruments can offer. Whether drum, mallet or percussion sounds - together with the breathtaking effects, this synth makes sound designers' hearts beat faster. Equalizer, compressor, multi-effect processor, Arpeggiator and much more are on board to change the large number of presets to your own liking. Or create your very own sound from scratch!
