Developed by Newfangled Audio, Generate is a marquee polysynth plug-in combining several chaotic oscillators with more established synthesiser features, allowing the creation of complex pads, moving keys, jittery sequenced basses, out-of-control leads, and new textures.
Generate is based on a set of chaotic generators. What initially looks like randomness contains underlying patterns, interconnectedness, constant feedback loops, repetition, self-similarity, fractals, and self-organization. Each of Generate’s 5 chaotic generators brings out these underlying patterns and create an oscillator that can smoothly fade from a sine wave to total chaos, with an expanse of territory to explore in between. The musical textures created include distortion, harmonics, grunge, static, and noise. All of which can be predictably or unpredictably modulated.
Generate’s chaotic generators are routed through a choice of a Buchla wavefolder, or novel Animated or Fractal wavefolders, each adding unique overtones. Followed by a low-pass gate inspired by the ideas of Don Buchla.
Every parameter in Generate’s voice can be modulated by a combination of two Envelope Generators, two LFOs, S&H/random generator, an eight-step sequencer, and Midi and MPE sources. The innovative modulation interface allows quick patching of any combination of sources to any destination.
Generate’s voice is followed by EQ, chorus, delay, reverb and limiter.
