Rob Papen releases WirePluck Synthesizer

Rob Papen has announced the release of WirePluck, a new synthesizer created in the tradition of the Rob Papen brand, which is known for thinking outside the box with innovative musical instruments.

WirePluck

At the heart of WirePluck are the three layers made up from four selectable source synthesis types, which allow you to create new synthesizer pluck sounds. The focus is not in recreating real acoustic instruments, but creating new inspirational sounds.

The user interface has been laid out in the Main screen in a way that allows for fast editing using the most important parameters, selecting different ARP presets, and selecting the 'Advance' screen on which all available parameters can be tweaked:

• The 1st source synthesis type for each layer is 'Wire', a newly developed sound source that sounds a bit like hitting a wire.
• The 2nd source synthesis type available is 'String', which uses a custom Karplus physical modelling synthesis.
• The 3rd source synthesis type is 'FM', which is a 3-Operator FM (phase modulation) synthesizer. A unique addition is that each Oscillator also has a Pitch Envelope Decay control, which is uncommon in classic FM synthesis, but great to add extra pluck to the sound.
• The 4th source synthesis type is 'Wave', which is a 1 Oscillator subtractive synthesizer lineup featuring an array of various Filter types.

All of these different sources can be combined in the 3 layers and each layer has its output routing.

The included FX inside WirePluck are 'Distortion' with various types, 'Modulation FX' which are Chorus, Flanger and so on, a Stereo Delay, and a Reverb.

WirePluck also features a fully featured ARP, an extensive Chord Memory section, Modulation Matrix and of course RP's 'Ribbon Controller'.

Last but not least, Rob added a bank manager, including many great presets by Rob himself and other sound designers.

WirePluck is available now for macOS and Windows in AAX, AU, VST, and VST3 plugin formats priced at €49.00 EUR/$49.00 USD.
