Description

Edit description

Unleash your creativity with the Winter Plankton Zaps, an innovative modular synthesizer that combines cutting-edge technology with intuitive design. Ideal for both live performances and studio sessions, this percussion-line synth voice is crafted to deliver organic percussive sequences that can evolve over time. At the heart of the Zaps lies a digitally-controlled two-oscillator FM and AM analog engine, marrying digital precision with analog warmth for a sound that's both rich and versatile.

The Zaps excels in its ability to morph, mutate, and modulate sounds, thanks to its various synthesis techniques like controlled randomness and sound morphing. Whether you're looking to subtly alter your tones or take a leap into the unknown with unpredictable sonic surprises, the Zaps has you covered. Its two VCOs come with a suite of waveforms, including unique double sine and white noise options, providing a vast palette of textures to explore.

Dive deeper into sound design with its robust envelope controls, enabling everything from dynamic pitch shifts to intricate amplitude modulation. With the ability to sequence preset slots externally and assign accents to any parameter, you're equipped with endless possibilities for expressive sound crafting. Plus, the Zaps' innovative freeze/revert feature allows you to experiment fearlessly, knowing you can always return to your original settings.

Key Features:

Digitally-controlled two-oscillator FM and AM analog engine
Morph and mutate sounds between preset slots
Two VCOs with diverse waveforms: Sine, Triangle, Sawtooth, Square, Double Sine, White Noise
Two AHR envelopes with customizable responses
Amplitude and frequency modulation capabilities
Two-channel mixer with high-pass filters
Extensive CV control for both internal and external modulation
Randomization features for dynamic sound generation
Freeze/Revert function for non-destructive editing
SD card storage for projects and presets
