AAS releases the Multiphonics CV-3 modular synthesizer & FX

Applied Acoustics Systems has announced the official release of Multiphonics CV‑3, a modular synthesizer and effect processor for macOS and Windows.

Multiphonics CV-3 is a modular rack for creating and playing synthesizers. It can also be used to assemble effects and process audio tracks. With its intuitive interface, Multiphonics provides seasoned users with a fun, powerful space to explore musical and sonic ideas and quickly bring them to life. For those new to sound synthesis, it is an inspiring learning environment. Multiphonics ships with a vast and inspiring library of synths and effects crafted by top sound designers.

New Multiphonics CV-3 features include:

• Polyphony.
• MPE support.
• Acoustic objects oscillator.
• 3-operator FM oscillator.
• Comb and tube filters.
• Oscilloscope module for signal visualization.
• CV generators.
• 100 new synth and effects patches.

Benoit Charland, lead product designer at Applied Acoustics Systems, said:

The standout feature of Multiphonics CV-3 is its new polyphonic capability, which fundamentally transforms its potential as a musical instrument. A patch can be made polyphonic with literally the push of a button—a simplicity rare among modular racks, which are monophonic in nature. We've also expanded the module library with new acoustic oscillators based on our award-winning physical modeling technology, bringing AAS' signature tone and feel into the modular realm. Combined with the new MPE compatibility, this opens the door to crafting truly unique synths with unparalleled expressive control.
