M-theory is a physical modeling hybrid synth that provides a very wide range of high quality synthetic and hybrid acoustic modeled sounds. M-theory is the successor to the popular String Theory and, in comparison to its predecessor, M-theory is far more flexible and delivers a much higher quality tone, with greater depth, clarity, and character.
The heart of M-theory is its multi part oscillator system, which allows the user to combine the output two exciters to drive a Karplus-Strong style delay based oscillator. The exciters can be either samples (24 built in, or user loaded), VA oscillators, or noise and each imparts some of its tone to the delay oscillator. Of special note is that even though M-theory can make use of samples it is definitely not a "rompler" since the actual sound of the sample is not retained; only certain characteristics of the tone are passed on to the overall sound. This method makes programming faster and easier while still providing physical modeling flexibility, and allows M-theory to have it's own unique voice rather than that of the sample.
In addition to is flexible multi-part oscillator system, M-theory also provides extensive filtering options (including the option of mixing low, band, high and all pass filters at the same time), dual programmable phrase arpeggiators, six built in effects, and much more. M-theory comes with 320 presets which range from sounds inspired by natural instruments all the way to other-worldly pads and ambiences.
Key features:
- Karplus-Strong style synthesis engine.
- Dual exciters, each with the option of samples, VA or noise sources.
- Independent low, band, high, and all pass filters.
- Dual programmable arpeggiators and an extra MIDI note doubler.
- Built in tremolo, metal effect, chorus, delay, distortion, and reverb.
- 320 presets.

| Product: | Disturbance |
| Developer: | Ugo |
| Type: | Sampler (Loop Tool / Slicer) |
| Price: | $35 |
| OS: |  |
| Formats: |  |
Disturbance is a sample player that is primarily intended for the glitching/mangling of drum loops but it can also be useful with melodic material, vocals, and pretty much anything else you want to feed it. Disturbance can be used to create subtle variations and effects, or it can warp your source material into something completely new. Disturbance is similar to a slicer, but a bit different. It works by chopping up a loop into 64 equal parts, then sequencing their playback, and each slice in Disturbance has its own loop point. In addition to offering several playback order options, Disturban... [more]
Dualism is a plugin version of the dual arpeggiators and 2X MIDI utilities found within M-theory and, as such, provides you with the ability to arpeggiate/double any other synth you wish, including hardware synths. Combining two flexible and programmable phrase arpeggiators with a pitch and speed controllable MIDI doubler, Dualism allows you to create arpeggiations that are far more complex and detailed than your standard synth arpeggiator. However, all this flexibility is contained within a small and straightforward interface, letting you quickly and comfortably create complex patterns withou... [more]
Ironhead is a morphing percussion synth with a fast and easy interface and a unique synthetic junk percussion sound. The 15 instruments in Ironhead's kit are named after the types of sounds they produce and Ironhead can go from familiar drum/percussion sounds to wild sweeps, thumps, knocks, smacks, clangs, and bangs. Features: Fast and easy interface. 15 unique sounding percussion instruments. Morphing (controlled by LFO, VST automation, MIDI). Variance. Dual delay (BPM sync with dotted notes). Kit randomizer. 128 preset kits. ... [more]

Ironhead:Spawn is a bundle of 13 individual polyphonic synths, built from mutated versions of the original Ironhead synthetic junk yard percussion kit instruments. They have grown, taken on lives of their own, and have been modified to be played across the keyboard like "normal" instruments. Their sound design abilities have expanded and they've been altered for a greater balance between percussive and melodic instruments, opening up a wide variety of sounds that are not possible with the original Ironhead, but while maintaining the unique Ironhead character and complimenting the ori...

Metallurgy is a multi-effect that is capable of providing sounds ranging from basic, subtle, filter tweaks to twisted, complex, walls of sound that bare virtually no resemblance to the original audio. Metallurgy offers 3 filters with multiple modulation options (including step sequencing), 2 distortions (each with 3 modes), 2 down-samplers, dual delay, an envelope follower, a gate sequencer, and a Metal effect that, in addition to flanging and metallic effects, also provides the ability to produce pitched sequences, nearly turning Metallurgy into an synth in its own right. Metallurgy has been ... [more]

Tunguska is a morphing multi effect that was built especially for use with Ironhead. Tunguska's two key components are its granulator and filter, both of which can be morphed between two states, allowing you to bring additional movement to your grooves. The effect Tunguska can have over incoming audio can be anything from subtle, tweaks to your sound, to mutating it into something completely different from the original... and all with the same fast and easy interface style of Ironhead. Features: Interface style of Ironhead. Pitch shifting granulator (morphable). Resonant filter (morphable... [more]
