Announcing the launch of ULTRA 2026-01-21T16:43:57+00:00 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2iNEGs_mhGY Today, Ultra.Audio is pleased to announce the launch of our flagship synth ULTRA :) Ultra features a new type of oscillator that we call UltraWave - which is like a cross between a sampler and a wavetable. It's based on an idea I had over a decade ago. I'm a person who likes visualise audio. You may have seen my Cymatics video on YouTube. I've always enjoyed looking at waveforms, and thinking of ways to synthesise and recreate them. UltraWave extends wavetable synthesis with pitch, stereo and multi-sampling. The video above does a good job of explaining the basics. I tried to find someone to build this as a plugin. I did know how to code, but only basic websites. I couldn't get anyone interested, so I built a prototype of the algorithm in HTML. This was very slow but it actually worked! Eventually I found a couple of fellow Kiwi musicians, and we started the project. Learning C++ was sort of fun and sort of a nightmare. I'd like to shout out KVR developer forum which has always been a good source of knowledge. Eventually we had to learn all sorts of coding disciplines, from Reverb design to 3d graphics. This took longer than expected... I first posted a picture of the app in 2018 (!). But, finally we are here. We have tried to make everything as easy to use as possible, and have included a bunch of animated screens that show you the levels of your modulations etc. The synth includes free lifetime updates. We have a lot of new features in development which we can't wait for you to see - new Oscillator types, new FX and a few surprises. We are building out the factory patch library, and will be adding patches continually. These are included at no cost and will sync and download as they are added. If you're interested, you can download a free trial where every feature works, except for saving. We're excited for the launch and can't wait to see what kind of music you create with it. There's lots more to say but I will leave it at that to start with. Let me know if you have any questions or feedback. Thanks!
