The new synthesis method is based on a large and expandable repertoire of standard waves like saw or pulse as well as complex waves like multi waves, trumpets, organs, pads, pianos, and voice samples. These waves can be modified in real-time by e.g. transposing the wave by one or two octaves and adding it to the original wave, altering its harmonic structure, syncing, compressing or expanding the frequency domain of the spectrum, making the wave fat using only one (!) oscillator by transforming each wave into a hyper-wave, selecting some cycles of a sample and moving through them over time (comparable to wavetable synthesis).
Any modification of a wave can be modulated producing lively shimmery sounds (recall: with only one oscillator!). In total there are more than 18,000 different spectra available for combination and modulation.
Oscillators
FireBird+ provides 84 different morphable oscillator types in high-end sound quality. They sound warm, analog, digital, transparent or completely unique. Additionally 23 spectral manipulations or; can be applied to the oscillators. A fat knob doubles or quadruples the number of oscillators giving up to 8 (!) oscillators per voice.
Filters
FireBird+ comes with 38 different sounding filter types in reference quality:
Lowpass (6-40dB), Analog, Moog, Vocal, Phaser, Comb, EQ, FM, AM, Resample, Elliptic …
FireBird+ provides also more complex characteristics for vocal or M-shape filters. Finally, it gives you ADSR- or LFO-modulated phaser-effects, AM- or FM-modulation.
Effects
FireBird+ offeres 13 different effect types. The effects section has several reverb and stereo tab delay variations, chorus, ensemble, flanger, and rotary effects as well as combinations.
Firebird comes with a powerful and easy-to-use arpeggiator.
