In 2002 Rob Papen approached Peter Linsener of LinPlug with his idea of a sound-designers dream synth... A few months later ALBINO was born! Within a very short time it stole the hearts of many musicians due to it's high quality sound, usability and inspirational presets. Together with his ideas and the wishes of his users, Rob and LinPlug mastermind Peter Linsener created ALBINO 2, due for release in the first quarter of 2004!

Extended information

VST2.0 and AU plug-in synthesizer for PC and Mac
More than 1100 professional-quality presets by Rob Papen
Modular and extendable design currently with 3 Oscillator Modules, 2 Filter Modules, 2 Envelope Modules and 8 Effect Modules
Unique: Powerful Arpeggiator

We included a up to 32 step rhythm arpeggiator with several modes in Albino up, down, up/down, down/up, as played, random mode and a chord and modulation mode.
It can be retriggered, swing with your music and mix its step velocity values with the velocity you played the chord. Your own creations can be save or copy/pasted to other presets. Many of the new presets make use of the Arpeggiator and the possibilities are literary endless.
