NitrousPM is the first part of NOVAkILL's "Nitrous Project". It is a two oscillator virtual-analogue synth with high quality oscillators and a wealth of modulation sources. Its super-compact UI is designed to maximise workflow without making it too hard to work with, thanks to large, well-spaced knobs and obvious, simple to use minor controls.
Its main features are:
- Two high quality SyncFX oscillators from Chris Kerry with 11 waveforms and Phase Modulation.
- Unison, optimised for "massive, phatty goodness".
- State-Variable filter with Low Pass 12 and 24dB/octave and 12dB/octave High Pass, band Pass and Band Reject modes.
- Two ADSR envelopes, both with multiple interpolation modes [slope] with looping on the modulation envelope only.
- Tempo-synced LFO with 5 modulation destinations [3 available simultaneously].
- VCA with Mono/Poly modes and Portamento [mono mode only].
- Extensive routing for velocity modulation and Mod Wheel control.
- 16-step programmable Gate Modulation source, assignable to phase mod, filter cutoff and volume [trance-gate].
- New RARP uses the Gate sequence to create random note variations over a user-definable range [0 to 2 octaves].
- Overdrive effect.
- MIDI "Learn" eliminates the need for MIDI CC assignments.

This will be my first KVR review, and it's for the most useful synth I've DL-ed in quite awhile, the NitreousPM. The thing to remember is that if you turn on the retrigger on the mod envelope, click the "v" over the Envelope knob on the filter and then turn Hard Sync about halfway up, some cool FM sounds can be had. The filter needs to be LP 24db and A, D, & R on the mod envelope need to be at zero with S close to zero. Another great group of sounds are the mono chordal leads, with the Hard Sync knob tuning the overtone. I was also impressed with the basses I was able to make. Hard basses, soft basses, resonant, overdriven, "plop" sounds. The list goes on. It's easy to do moogy-sounding leads on this synth too. For these, turn off Retrigger and leave Hard Sync off. The only thing I don't like is the Unison, since it introduces pops and crackles into the sound. Can't have everything.
So that's my review, essentially a little tour around the NitreousPM. I was captivated by the synth for over a month and made way more patches than eventually went into the 64-preset bank I uploaded here. If you like mono basses and leads of all kinds then NitreousPM is your girl.Read more
