Bazille
Bazille, developed by u-he, is a modular synthesizer that combines digital oscillators with analog-style filters and extensive modulation capabilities. It features four digital oscillators capable of frequency modulation, phase distortion, and fractal resonance synthesis, allowing for complex sound design. The synthesizer includes four self-oscillating multimode filters, each with up to six parallel outputs, providing versatile filtering options. Bazille offers four ADSR envelopes with adjustable fall and rise controls, two LFOs with multiple waveforms and outputs, and a 6-step morphing sequencer with eight snapshots for dynamic modulation. Additional components include mapping generators, multiplex modules for signal mixing and modulation, and built-in effects such as stereo delay, distortion, phaser, and spring reverb. The interface is fully modular, allowing users to connect any output to any input, facilitating intricate patching possibilities.

Diva
Diva captures the spirit of five decades of analog synthesizers. Oscillators, filters, and envelopes from some of the greatest monophonic and polyphonic synths of yesteryear were meticulously modeled for unmatched analog sound. More than a single synthesizer: Recreate an old favourite or mix-and-match modules to design your unique hybrid. Authentic, award-winning analog sound. Per-voice oscillator detunes and user-definable modulation source. Zero delay feedback (ZDF) filter design for authentic resonance behavior. 3 ADS(S)R envelope models based on classic synth hardware with keyboard follow and velocity scaling. Host-sync-able arpeggiator with continuous rate offset, swing, and various progression options. 2 host-sync-able LFOs with multiple waveforms, restart options, and phase controls. 2 stereo effects slots, each with chorus (3 modes), phaser (2 modes), plate reverb, delay, rotary speaker.

DS Audio Thorn
Thorn is a cutting-edge tool for making cutting-edge sounds. Designed with the modern electronic music producer in mind, DS Audio’s main goal was to develop a top-notch software synthesizer, for creating punchy, snappy, and aggressive sounds that leap out at the listener. The sound engine in Thorn is built on the novel spectral synthesis method, which gives you complete control over the individual harmonics that go into creating a final timbre. Three harmonic oscillators with an additional Harmonic Filter allow you to create a wide range of forward-looking sounds. Two analog-modeled multi-mode filters, with a zero-delay feedback path, are there to help you tailor your tones and make them shine in the mix. Use them to modulate any parameter you’d like to. A set of 9 high-quality effects helps you polish your sound and breathe life into it. For even more fun, check out the pattern-based glitch sequencer to create glitch-effects.

Vital
Give new life to wavetables by using Vital's spectral oscillator warping. Spectral warping acts on a waveform's harmonics and can create drastically different shapes and timbres from a simple source. Turn your own samples into wavetables by using Vital's pitch-splice or vocode wavetable converter. Create wavetables from scratch using the built-in wavetable editor and even generate wavetables from text. Vital is a visual synthesizer. See what's happening behind the scenes with animated controls, filter responses, waveforms, smooth LFOs, oscilloscopes, spectrograms, and more. All animations run at 60 frames per second and are GPU optimized which leaves your CPU to do its real job, the audio processing. Modulate Vital's controls with a fast, drag-and-drop workflow. Vital gives you a preview of the modulation before committing so you can quickly experiment without ruining your sound.
