Syntorus 2 is an analog chorus effect plugin that brings the warmth and richness of classic bucket-brigade device (BBD) technology to your digital studio. By utilizing three BBD delay lines instead of just one, Syntorus 2 delivers a lush, immersive chorus sound that enhances everything from synths and basses to guitars and other instruments. Modeled after classic analog effects units from the likes of the Solina String Ensemble, Elka Synthex, and Roland Juno-106, Syntorus 2 provides authentic vintage character in a modern plugin format.
Each of Syntorus 2’s delay lines has a dedicated multimode filter and tremolo, adding further depth and movement to the sound. Whether you’re looking to create subtle modulation or bold, immersive effects, Syntorus 2’s precise control over LFOs, phase, and synchronization ensures that your chorus always fits perfectly within your project timeline. With flexible modulation routing, customizable delay line settings, and an optional analog BBD emulation mode, Syntorus 2 is the ultimate tool for achieving analog chorus warmth in the digital domain.
Key Features:
- Triple BBD Delay Lines: Syntorus 2 uses three independent analog delay lines to create a richer, fuller chorus sound than typical single-delay units.
- Multimode Filter and Tremolo: Each delay line has its own multimode filter and tremolo, modulated in sync with the delay, perfect for crafting vintage Leslie speaker effects and other complex modulations.
- Complete Synchronization: Each LFO can be synchronized to your DAW with timeline-locked phase control, ensuring precise modulation that fits your project’s tempo and timeline.
- Three LFO Generators: Each LFO features six waveforms, independent phase shift controls, amplitude control, and the ability to synchronize to the host tempo for detailed modulation.
- Delay Line Mixer: A comprehensive mixer lets you control panning, volume, and the signal output of each delay line, with VU meters for level monitoring.
- Configurable Modulation: The three LFOs can be routed to the delay lines in various configurations, providing flexible modulation topologies.
- Analog BBD Emulation: Activate the Analog BBD Emulation to add even more warmth and vintage character to the pristine delay lines.
- MIDI Learn: Easily assign any parameter to your MIDI controller for enhanced workflow and hands-on control.
- UI Customization: Multiple interface sizes and HiDPI support ensure compatibility with all screen resolutions and DAW setups.
