ConcreteFX have released Digital, a phase shaping synthesis VSTi for Windows which uses phase distortion, waveshaping and frequency modulation to recreate the sound of classic 80's synthesizers.

Features:

• Digital uses 4 operators which can be arranged in 15 different ways, these arrangements include all four- op FM arrangements & ring modulation algorithms.
• Phase distort - each operator uses phase distortion to change waveshapes, allowing you to recreate the sound of Casio CZ synths.
• Waveshaping - 19 waves including all the FM and CZ type waves, you can also use multi-mode waves which use two waves appended together.
• Filters - each operator has a 12/24 low/high/band pass/band reject + ring mod or comb filters.
• Modulators - Digital has eight envelopes, step sequences, LFOs and four key splits. Envelope can have up-to 32 stage, each stage having variable slopes. Each envelope has user-definable loop & release points for complex patterns.
• Modulation matrix - a powerful modulation matrix allows you to modulate all the controls using envelopes, LFOs, step sequences, keysplits, any MIDI controls, velocity, note played and in/out volume.
• Effects - Cross delay / reverb, chorus/flanger/phaser, three band equalizer and distortion effects.
• User-defined colour setup.
• 160 presets.

Digital can be purchased for $65/EUR50/£35 and a demo version is available for download.
