VAZ Plus is the real-time software equivalent of an analogue synthesizer similar to the ARP Odyssey, Moog, Sequential Circuits Prophet 5, Yamaha CS-Series, Korg MS-Series, Roland Jupiter 6, SH-101 and TB-303 - to name but a few! It can be sequenced by the built-in pattern based sequencer (similar to that found on a TB-303), or by other sequencing software such as Cakewalk, Cubase etc.

Extended information

The synthesizer architecture, which is much more advanced than its simple appearance suggests, allows unique sounds to be crafted easily and quickly, essential for making your music stand out from the crowd. The quality and diverse range of analogue sounds will surprise you, and there are hundreds of preset sounds included. The synthesizer can be played over MIDI, or using the high resolution timing provided by the VSTi and DXi plugin standards. There is also a handy QWERTY keyboard option for auditioning sounds when no external MIDI keyboard is available.
The polyphonic VAZ Plus Sequencer combines the best of classic analogue and digital pattern sequencers. In addition to note sequencing it can be used for patterned modulation of parameters such as Filter Cutoff and Resonance. The sequencer can also synchronize with the host directly when used as a VSTi or DXi plugin or via MIDI Clock for the standalone version.
