Discover Lynx by Xenobioz – a software synthesizer that combines classic subtractive synthesis with innovative tools for creating unique timbres. Lynx is designed for musicians and sound designers who strive for deep control over sound and experimentation.
This plugin offers a flexible architecture capable of generating both traditional synthesizer sounds and completely original timbres. Its intuitive interface makes the sound design process efficient and engaging. Whether you need dense basses, atmospheric pads, or experimental textures, Lynx provides the necessary tools.
Oscillators and Unique Waveform Editor
The core of Lynx is its powerful sound generation system:
Innovative Oscillators
- Two oscillators, each supporting up to 7 detuned voices for Unison mode. This allows you to create incredibly dense and voluminous sounds, perfect for leads, pads, and basses.
- Drawable Waveforms: A unique ability to visually “draw” your own waveforms. This opens up endless possibilities for creating completely original timbres that are unattainable through standard methods.
Powerful Waveform Editor
Each oscillator has access to a flexible waveform editor with a rich set of manipulation features:
- FM (Frequency Modulation): Adds complex harmonics.
- Harmonics: Detailed control over the spectral composition.
- Random wave generation: Quick creation of unique experimental forms.
- Noise Generation: Adding noise for a variety of sounds.
- Add, Multiply: Combining waveforms.
- Cycle Combination: Creating interesting patterns.
This editor significantly expands the synthesis capabilities.
Additional Sound Shaping Capabilities
To “enliven” the sound, Lynx is equipped with additional tools:
Phase Distortion
- Phase Distortion: Adds a unique character, similar to the Casio CZ, ideal for sharp and ringing timbres.
Modulation and Dynamics
- Two LFOs (Low Frequency Oscillators): For modulating parameters. Includes standard and a unique Step mode, where the value changes only with a new note. An Envelope mode is also available.
- Two ADSR Envelope Generators: Classic envelopes for controlling parameters. They have adjustable curves for each stage (Attack, Decay, Sustain, Release), giving fine control over the sound dynamics.
Conclusion
Lynx by Xenobioz is an interesting synthesizer with deep capabilities thanks to the unique combination of subtractive synthesis, drawable waveforms, a powerful editor, and flexible modulators. It is suitable for both experienced users and beginners, offering an intuitive interface and great creative potential. If you are looking for a tool to create a unique sound, Lynx is worth a look.
