Immerse yourself in a world of extraordinary sounds with Rez3 – an innovative VST plugin from Z3 Audiolabs. This plugin is not a typical synthesizer or effect; it’s a powerful resonator instrument capable of creating rich, textured, and evolving timbres. If you are looking for something new, something that will set your compositions apart, Rez3 offers a unique approach to sound design, using the principles of resonance to generate sound.
What is Rez3?
At its core, Rez3 is a resonator, but its functionality is much broader than a simple effect. It is designed as a complete instrument, allowing you to manipulate resonant frequencies to create melodies, atmospheric textures, percussive sounds, and much more. With a thoughtful set of controls, you get deep control over the sound character.
Key features of Rez3
Rez3 is equipped with a range of powerful features that make it an extremely flexible tool for sound experimentation:
- Multi-functional LFO: The plugin has a multi-functional LFO with six different waveforms. This allows you to create complex modulation of sound parameters, adding dynamics and movement.
- Envelope Follower: Use the envelope follower to modulate pitch, feedback, filter cutoff frequency, and filter resonance. This allows the sound to respond to the dynamics of the input signal or MIDI messages.
- Six independent resonator voices: The heart of Rez3 is six independent resonator voices. The first voice is the main (master), and the other five can be detuned from it. This opens up a wide range of possibilities for creating chorus effects, frequency clusters, or polyphonic textures.
- Detailed voice control: Each of the six voices is equipped with its own pan slider for precise placement in the stereo space. There is also a range button that allows you to set the detune range between one octave and one semitone, providing precise control over the harmonic relationships between the voices.
- Built-in keyboard and MIDI support: You can play notes directly using the built-in virtual keyboard or connect a MIDI keyboard or use your DAW’s sequencer. Full MIDI support makes integrating Rez3 into your workflow simple and convenient.
- MIDI Learn: The plugin supports the MIDI Learn function (right-click on the parameter), which allows you to easily assign parameters to the controllers of your MIDI keyboard or other MIDI device for fast and intuitive control during performance or recording.
- 32 presets: For a quick start and inspiration, Rez3 comes with 32 ready-made presets that demonstrate the various possibilities of the plugin.
Create Unique Sounds with Rez3
Due to its unique capabilities, Rez3 is perfect for creating a wide range of sounds: from bell-like timbres and metallic resonances to atmospheric pads, evolving drones, and experimental sound effects. By combining the modulation capabilities of the LFO and envelope with the flexible adjustment of the six resonator voices, you can achieve truly original and unique results. This plugin will be a valuable addition to the arsenal of any musician, sound designer, or experimenter looking to expand their sound palette.
