KarmaFX Synth Modular 2 is an award-winning and highly flexible Simulated Analog Modular Synthesizer and Effect Unit. With its visually intuitive interface, users can modulate nearly any parameter using various control signals, opening up endless sound design possibilities.
The synth features Through-Zero-Frequency, Bandlimited Oscillators with Pulsewidth, Phase, and Frequency Modulation, alongside exclusive Synced Exponential FM, providing a rich and dynamic sound. It includes Dual Oscillators with HardSync, Multi-Sample-, Additive/Wavetable-, Pad-, and Granular-Synthesis, as well as an extensive selection of Virtual Analog Multi-Mode Filters, Parametric Filters, and Graphical Equalizers.
The built-in effects section boasts a wide array of high-quality effects, including Distortion, Delay, Chorus/Flange, Reverb, Folder, Phaser, Limiter, Maximizer, and both Single- and Multi-Band Compression. Any parameter can be modulated by multiple sources, including Envelopes, LFOs, ADSRs, HFOs, Step Sequencers, or even audio modules and external inputs. This allows for deep and dynamic sound shaping, rivaling even high-end hardware synthesizers.
All modulation signals are displayed visually in real-time for each module, making it both easy to use and an excellent learning tool for sound designers. Additionally, the software includes a comprehensive user manual and a vast collection of presets to help users get started.
