Cobalt by Leslie Sanford is a hybrid synthesizer, inspired by digital instruments of the 1980s. It offers a unique combination of vintage character and the flexibility of modern sound design, transporting you to the golden age of synthesizer music.
Immerse yourself in the atmosphere of the 80s with Cobalt
Although Cobalt is fully digital, its architecture reflects the principles of early hybrid synthesizers that masterfully combined analog and digital technologies. This gives it a special, authentic feel and sound characteristic of that era.
Unique synthesis capabilities
The foundation of Cobalt’s sound is its rich collection of waveforms. Many of them have been resynthesized directly from real hybrid synthesizers of the 80s, providing exceptional vintage accuracy. From crystal-clear bells to rich, slightly “digital” textures – you’ll find everything here to create unique timbres.
By combining these unique oscillators with powerful subtractive synthesis capabilities, Cobalt becomes an extremely flexible instrument. You can use classic filters, envelopes, and LFOs to shape the sound, add movement, and create complex dynamic textures. It’s the perfect solution for both reproducing classic sounds and creating completely new, fresh ideas with a vintage touch.
Cobalt is ideal for:
- Electronic music musicians and producers (Synthwave, Retrowave, Ambient, etc.).
- Sound designers looking for unique vintage timbres.
- Synthesizer enthusiasts who appreciate the authenticity of the 80s.
The plugin is available in VST format for Windows (32-bit and 64-bit).
