Audeon has announced the pre-release of its UFO synthesizer for Mac OS X in VST format.
UFO is a software synthesizer built upon Audeon's proprietary "TransModal Synthesis" technology. Its oscillator model is controlled by perceptual attributes such as Periodicity, Brightness, Noisiness or Chaos, etc., lying on 2D controllers. Programming a sound simply consists of balancing these attributes by placing dots on the controllers and modulating them graphically by drawing arrows, thus making sound design particularly easy and offering great expressiveness.
A preview demo version of UFO for Mac OS X (VST) is now available for download. The full version will be released shortly.
