Chromaphone 3 is a two-voice eight-physically-modeled-acoustic-resonator synthesizer with advanced editing capabilities that produce a delightful mixture of real-life presence and distinctive timbres that can’t be found anywhere else. Chromaphone 3 ships with 1000+ presets taking full advantage of its state-of-the-art acoustic object synthesis. 

 

Here are some of Chromaphone 3’s new features:

 

- Home view: the Home view presents a distraction free and laid-back browsing and tweaking experience.

 

- Two-Voice Multitimbral: Two independent timbres—stacked or split—create performance-friendly, texture-full, and spacious sounds.

 

- Macros: Four performance macros per layer that respond to user-defined MIDI controls. Each and every sound features modulation, timbre, envelope, and effect morphing assignments that can be played in real-time for enhanced expressivity and sonic dimension.

 

- Browser: The brand-new browser offers an efficient way to home in on the right sounds thanks to the Packs, Sounds, Categories, and Creators views.

 

- Factory Library: Chromaphone 3’s factory library contains 421 never heard before sounds as well as refined versions of the 670+ Chromaphone 2 presets.

"Adding depth and dimension was the name of the game for this next iteration of our favorite synthesizer," says Eric Thibeault, product designer at Applied Acoustics Systems. "Chromaphone 3 is now bi-timbral. Combining two independent Chromaphone synthesis engines opens up a whole new world in terms of content. We've also added per-layer macros that allow sound designers to make sound variations an integral part of the design process. Our team of top sound designers has put together a brand new factory library which exploits these new possibilities. Additionally, each and every sound was fine-tuned to provide a consistent gain-stage, unity-gain effects, better dynamics, and compelling MIDI-controlled sound transformation assignments. We're positive that you will now enjoy Chromaphone's distinctive sonic signature even more."
