Tyrell Nexus 6 V3[/fusion_tab][fusion_tab title=”Charlatan by BlauKraut Engineering” icon=””]
Charlatan is a polyphonic, subtractive virtual analog (VA) synthesizer plugin with a feature set just flexible enough to cover a wide range of sounds while deliberately abstaining from countless parameters and modulation options cluttering the user interface and distracting from the creative process.
Features:
- 2 oscillators with triangle, sawtooth, rectangle
- oscillator pulse-width modulation (PWM) and slew rate modulation (morphing between triangle and sawtooth)
- oscillator hard synchronization and ring modulation
- noise source with low/highpass filter
- 2 ADSR envelope generators
- LFO with host tempo synchronization
- 3 filter types modeled after classic analog hardware: 4-pole (24 db/oct) and 2-pole (12 db/oct) lowpass, bandpass
- filter code based on nonlinear zero-delay feedback technique for accurate emulation of analog counterparts
- 3 voice modes: Monophonic with retriggering, Monophonic Legato and 8-voice Polyphonic
- low CPU usage
- 100% coded in C++
- native 64-bit support
