Impact Soundworks inSIDious Synth SID Chip - Virtual Instrument, Download
Under the innovative design of Mike Clarke, the inSIDious Synth SID Chip - Virtual Instrument, Download, brings the iconic sound of the Commodore 64 to your digital audio workstation (DAW). This sophisticated software, developed over five years by Clarke, a seasoned video game musician and programmer, offers a high-quality emulation of the SID chip, a cornerstone of vintage video game music. The inSIDious Synth SID Chip is not just another 'SID-like' VST. It is a meticulous re-creation of the SID chip, capturing even the 'bugs' and quirks that contribute to its distinctive sound. This advanced virtual instrument features three independent digital oscillators that generate four fundamental waveforms: Pulse, Sawtooth, Triangle, and Noise. The Pulse waveform offers a range of 4096 positions, from a pure square to a silent pulse, while the Noise waveform is a digital pseudo-random noise generator that can be pitched up and down for that characteristic "8-bit" sound. The inSIDious Synth SID Chip also includes an innovative "SFX" button for creating classic sound effects. The software allows any combination of Pulse, Sawtooth, and Triangle waves, creating a unique set of extra waveforms. It also enables any oscillator to be synchronized to another's frequency to produce a "Hard Sync" effect. When set to the Triangle waveform (or Tri+Pulse), an oscillator can use another as a carrier frequency to produce ring modulation, generating bell-like metallic sounds and effects. Each oscillator comes with its own envelope generator, allowing an ADSR envelope to be applied to the volume, as well as a PWM envelope and LFO, and a pitch envelope and LFO, all with independent timing and sync values. The filter is an analog, multimode resonant filter that can be set to low-pass, band-pass, high-pass, or any combination of the three. The 6580 version includes six curve models as well. The inSIDious Synth SID Chip - Virtual Instrument, Download, comes with 350 snapshots, including classic and modern styles, basses, leads, drones, perc, loops, and FX. It also features artist banks from renowned C64 composers and demoscene musicians like Chris Huelsbeck, Rob Hubbard, Martin Galway, Jason Page, Mark Knight, and more. Experience the professional-grade quality of Impact Soundworks with the inSIDious Synth SID Chip - Virtual Instrument, Download, and bring the nostalgic sound of the Commodore 64 to your music production.
