Setting the new standard in virtual synthesizer instruments

To accurately reproduce the real sound of vintage synthesizers sampling their sound-generating oscillators is the only way to ensure truly authentic results. Each of the 38 synths in Syntronik was meticulously multi-sampled using the most advanced techniques available, creating a library of over 50GB and 70,000 samples.

Adding even greater realism, the proprietary DRIFT™ technology in Syntronik varies the phase, colour and pitch of the sampled oscillators in a subtle fashion to keep them moving just like real analog oscillators. Much more than simple detuning or even multiple-source modulation, DRIFT faithfully reproduces the behaviour of oscillators from real hardware synths.

Circuit-modelled filters from the experts

Syntronik’s unique hybrid synthesis engine reaches far beyond the limits of traditional sampling thanks to a brand new analog modelled filter section built with the experience and know-how from IK, the company that pioneered virtual circuit modelling. Syntronik offers 7 filter types including 4 of the best sounding analog filters of all time: the Moog transistor ladder, Roland’s IR3109 chip, the famous Curtis CEM3320 chip and the Oberheim SEM state variable filter. This allows for pristine reproduction of the most critical section of every synthesizer. Syntronik also provides a Classic low-pass filter and powerful digital filters like Formant and Phase that can take the analog source oscillators into a whole new world of sonic possibilities. Plus, all 7 filters can be selected within each included instrument, enabling users to mix and match them at will – like using a Moog filter with Oberheim oscillators – for unique combinations never heard before.

Advanced features and effects

Also included in Syntronik is a full suite of 38 professional effects with a lunch-box style configuration that is unmatched in the world of virtual instruments, along with advanced features like 4-part layers, splits and arpeggiators. This makes Syntronik the ultimate source of inspiration with a huge array of synthesizer sounds ranging from exact recreations true to the originals to completely unique sounds ready to cover productions in any genre and style.

SampleTank-ready

Syntronik’s sounds can be opened seamlessly in SampleTank 3 (with the version 3.7 update available from the IK Multimedia website), allowing them to be used individually or as 4-part instruments together with the vast and continually expanding range of instruments available in the SampleTank library. The SampleTank version 3.7 update includes new features such as the Channel Strip and Ensemble Chorus effects as well as 6 new filter types, increasing the power and flexibility of the industry-standard sound and groove workstation for even greater creative possibilities.
