The Sonik Synth 2 "playback" engine launches sampling technology into new dimensions. Based on the wildly popular SampleTank 2.5 Engine, Sonik Synth features 3 synth engines that can be switched on the fly to provide more flexibility than ever before: traditional resampling, PS/TS (Pitch-Shift/Time-Stretch) and the STRETCH™ engine give you total control over Tempo, Tune and Harmonics. Resampling is the traditional technology used in sampler and sample-based sound modules. The PS/TS Engine has been designed to work with polyphonic material such as ensemble instruments phrases, or percussive sounds like drum loops and percussion grooves. With PS/TS tempo and pitch can be adjusted and controlled independently giving you more options with loops and a new level of realism. The STRETCH Engine has been designed for monophonic material (such as vocal, brass, winds, etc…), and provides full control over the tempo and tune of the samples. It gives any sample an incredibly rich, vibrant, and natural quality. STRETCH also expands your sonic manipulation capabilities by providing full-control of an instrument's basic spectrum distribution to tailor its tonal characteristics. Every sound in Sonik Synth instrument is programmed with fully editable built-in effects. Sonik Synth 2 has an extremely powerful multi-effects engine which offers high quality DSP effects giving maximum flexibility, creativity and realism to all the instruments. Choose up to 5 effects per instrument, plus you get 5 send effects and 5 master effects. All the effects are derived from our award winning AmpliTube and T-RackS packages providing top-class quality pristine sound.
