Team NEMESiS | 24/12/2008 | 116.90 MB
Hybrid Synthesizer with sample-based keymapping and online preset browsing!
NexSyn is a hybrid instrument that combines sample playback and Stereo Synthesis Technology. NexSyn is designed for the musician, sound designer, and producer who wishes for a powerful synthesizer with high quality output, advanced modulation, and precise sample based key-map playback. NexSyn is the only Software Synthesizer in the world with NetNotes – revolutionary Online Preset browsing and sharing, from right within NexSyn.
NexSyn comes in AU/RTAS/VST versions, and comes with 130mb of sampled sounds. More soundpacks will be available for purchase soon.
PLEASE NOTE: This is NOT an upgrade for previous versions of NexSyn. DO NOT install this version over your current NexSyn installation. Doing so will overwrite your presets and XWM library. An upgrade for previous NexSyn installations is on its way.
The Technology:
NexSyn is a hybrid instrument that combines sample playback and Stereo Synthesis Technology. NexSyn is designed for the musician, sound designer, and producer who wishes for a powerful synthesizer with high quality output, advanced modulation, and precise sample based key-map playback. NexSyn is the only Software Synthesizer in the world with NetNotes – revolutionary Online Preset browsing and sharing, from right within NexSyn.
The samples:
Nexsyn is capable of loading sample based keymap files (XWM) and comes stock with a 200 MB sample library courtesy of Big Fish Audio. By loading an XWM file as an oscillator, NexSyn can modulate it as you would find with a subtractive synth. There are no limitations to the modulation possibilities. This makes combining a Vox Continental, a Hammond B3, and a pulse wave into a unique sounding organ patch easy. Any sample based keymap file can be modulated as an oscillator, or played without modulation for pristine representation of the instrument.
Preset Browsing:
The Preset Browser window presents a virtual keyboard to trigger presets, notes about the preset and displays the effects used in the preset. It’s easy to audition presets in the mix from the Preset View. Not finding what you want? Go directly to NetNotes, and start browsing Presets online.
The Modules:
The modules found in the edit window are completely collapsable, allowing literally hundreds of configurations to match your workflow.
NexSyn has a true stereo signal path that emulates the physics of stereophonic imaging. This is achieved by two independent oscillators (as a stereo oscillator), stereo only filter modes, and the ability to modulate left and right sides independently. Most Soft-synths sum all of your sound into one “stereo” mix, which is in reality the same signal in the left and right channels. NexSyn actually modulates the Left and Right channels independently. Think of the sonic possibilities!
Filters and Modulation:
Nexsyn gives you three filter modules each capable of holding one of sixteen filter types. When in stereo mode, the cut off points for the left and right side can be modulated with the “Spread” parameter.
The Modulation Matrix is quick and easy to program, and very powerful. The matrix can route 6 sources to 12 destinations. There are 12 possible sources such as Mod Wheel, After touch, Velocity, etc. and 61 possible destinations to modulate, such as Osc 1 Pitch Left, or Filter 2 Cutoff, or LFO amount.
The two FX sections offer eight stereo effects to add character to your sound. Each section has an independent output. FX 1 has a re-direct output to FX2 and both can sync to your host.
The LFOs and Envelopes:
The LFO modules all feature five unique destinations for LFO modulation. These destinations are hardwired into the LFO and can also be reverse-modulated. There are twelve waveforms to choose from and each has a built in envelope generator.
NexSyn has three envelope sections with six segments. In Expert view, the slope can be adjusted individually for the Attack, Decay, and Release. The envelope tracking induces key and velocity to amplitude and time. The envelopes are triggered by MIDI note on/off or by each other.
