Orion is a fully featured music creation and production environment. It includes a sequencer, mixer, instruments and effects, thus no extra software is required to produce any style of music.
Instruments
Orion includes 11 synthesizers covering subtractive synthesis, FM, physical modelling as well as wavetable synthesis. Additionally, a fully featured sampler that supports SoundFont, Kurzweil, AKAI and REX formats is available. 3rd party VST and DX instruments may be used and seamlessly integrate into the environment.
Effects
A total of 43 effect plugins that span dynamic effects, delay, reverberation, distortion, filtering, vocoding, phasing, flanging and chorus are included in Orion. Additionally container effects are available, where multiple effects can be grouped together to form a new effect. Not only can effects be chained in parallel or in series, it is also possible to split effects into different frequency bands, allowing to create multiband effects such as a multiband compressors for instance. 3rd party VST and DX plugins are supported as well.
Arranging/Sequencing
Both pattern and track based sequencing is possible in Orion, depending on user preferences. Editing tools include a fully featured piano roll as well as step sequencers. Multiple MIDI in devices are supported to allow simultaneous recording into multiple tracks at once. For beginners, the alternate "Easy" mode greatly facilitates working with MIDI by always sending all MIDI data to the active generator window- no setup is necessary, and any instrument can be played right away via a connected MIDI keyboard.
Mixing/Mastering
Orion features an analog-style mixer with insert and send effects, a parametric EQ, multiple busses and effect return channels. Mixer channels are created and assigned automatically when new instruments are inserted into a project, allowing for a fast workflow.
Audio Recording
Up to 256 audio tracks can be used in Orion. New audio clips are added with a single click into the playlist. Multiple tracks can be recorded simultaneously using the ASIO interface.

| Product: | EKS-9 (Electronic Kickdrum Synthesizer) |
| Developer: | Synapse Audio |
| Type: | Drum Synth |
| Price: | $49 |
| OS: |  |
| Formats: | |
EKS-9 is a special-purpose software synthesizer designed to recreate the sound of analog electronic kickdrum sounds - hence the name EKS (Electronic Kickdrum Synthesizer). The plug-in offers two modes, 808 and 909, each with their own, characteristic sound. It goes far beyond the capabilities of vintage analog hardware, however, and introduces new parameters, most importantly it offers precise control of the pitch. Additionally, despite the fundamentally different models employed, all parameters apply equally to both the 808 and 909 mode. The user interface is organized into four sections co... [more]

Hydra is a multi-model synthesizer, designed for use in all genres of electronic music. The oscillator routing can be switched between three radically different models, which is almost like having three different synthesizers in one - each model has it's own distinct character and sonic capabilities. The logical organization of the user interface makes it easy to maintain a good overview of the high number of parameters, and design your own original sounds. The online help system provides detailed information about every parameter. Two of the three oscillators have 39 preset waveforms, and ... [more]

Toxic is a 6-operator-FM synthesizer with alias-free oscillators, warm filters and precise envelopes. All controls are interpolated, allowing you to tweak all parameters smoothly in realtime without clicks. A powerful effects section with an Equalizer, a Distortion unit and two Chorus, Flanger and Delay units completes this generator. The Toxic interface was very carefully designed - despite having many parameters. Toxic features a very streamlined GUI, allowing rapid access to all relevant parameters - no hidden pages or endless searching for a specific parameter. Producers who do not like t... [more]
| Product: | X-Poly (was Poly-850) |
| Developer: | Synapse Audio |
| Type: | Synth (Analogue / Subtractive) |
| Price: | $49 |
| OS: | |
| Formats: | |
X-Poly is a synthesizer plug-in which started out as an emulation of a vintage synth, but went beyond that by adding many improvements and new features over the original. The concept of the X-Poly is based around two oscillators, each containing four special sub-oscillators spaced one octave apart. Both oscillators can be blended seamlessly between a square and a sawtooth-type waveform and can be freely panned in the stereo field. The six-stage envelopes controlling the amplitudes of the oscillators provide a linear slope for the first five stages and a semi-logarithmic release for the final ... [more]
