Spectral warping wavetable synth. Give new life to wavetables by using Vital’s spectral oscillator warping.
Spectral warping acts on a waveform’s harmonics and can create drastically different shapes and timbres from a simple source.
Turn your own samples into wavetables by using Vital’s pitch-splice or vocode wavetable converter. Create wavetables from scratch using the built-in wavetable editor and even generate wavetables from text!
Vital is a visual synthesizer. See what’s happening behind the scenes with animated controls, filter responses, waveforms, smooth LFOs, oscilloscopes, spectrograms and more.
All animations run at 60 frames per second and are GPU optimized which leaves your CPU to do its real job: the audio processing.
Modulate Vital’s controls with a fast, drag and drop workflow. Vital gives you a preview of the modulation before committing so you can quickly experiment without ruining your sound.
Modulate your sound with custom LFO shapes, snappy envelopes and randomized sources like perlin noise. Give your sound some human touch with velocity, aftertouch and MPE control modulation.
Use stereo modulation to split the left and right channels of every modulation to get extra wide stereo effects. Then ‘remap’ the modulation curve to customize the shape of every modulation connection.
Feature List
High quality oscillators
Generate clean sounds using Vital’s oscillators that have an extremely low noise floor and have a sharp cutoff at Nyquist for almost no aliasing.
Efficient unison
There are some clever SSE optimizations to keep the oscillators easy on your CPU, so don’t be afraid to crank up the unison.
Microtonal
Vital loads .tun, .scl, and .kbd files so you can play microtonally.
MPE support
Vital fully supports MPE so use your ROLI keyboard, Linnstrument or other MPE compatible keyboard to add extra expression to your sound.
Audio-rate modulation
You can modulate many of the controls in Vital at audio-rate to create an even wider set of timbres.
Keytracked LFOs
Easily create keytracked basses with the keytracked LFO setting. Combine a keytracked LFO with the audio-rate modulation to use your LFOs as an oscillator modulation source.
