Key Features of RMS1
RMS1 is equipped with a range of parameters and sections that allow you to shape the sound with high precision and creativity. Let’s take a closer look at its main components:
Oscillators and Synthesis
-
16-Voice Polyphony / Monophony: Easily switch between modes to create dense chords or powerful monophonic basslines and leads.
-
3 Oscillators with Waveform Selection: Allows you to mix different waveforms to achieve a unique basic timbre.
-
PMW / MOD Section: Provides pulse width modulation (PWM) and overall modulation capabilities to add movement and character to the sound. Selecting the control type and modulation waveform expands the palette of sound possibilities.
Modulation and Envelopes
-
LFO Section: Low-frequency oscillator with the ability to select waveform, depth, and speed to create cyclical modulation of different parameters.
-
Filter Envelope (ADSR) Section: Full control over the attack, decay, sustain, and release of the envelope that controls the filter cutoff frequency. This allows you to shape the dynamics of the timbre over time.
-
Output Amplifier (ADSR) Section: A classic volume envelope for controlling the attack, decay, sustain, and release of the overall sound volume. Important for shaping note dynamics.
Filters and Effects
-
Two-Stage Filter Section: Offers separate cutoff frequency (Cutoff) and resonance (Resonance) settings for the left and right channels, opening up possibilities for stereo processing or complex timbre shaping.
-
AM MOD Section: Amplitude modulation with waveform selection, speed, and depth. Allows you to create tremolo effects or more experimental sounds.
-
FREQ MOD Section: Frequency modulation with waveform selection, speed, and depth. Opens the way to vibrato, FM synthesis, and metallic timbres.
-
Delay Effect Section: Built-in delay effect with independent length/time settings for the left and right channels, as well as the overall effect level. Adds space and depth to the sound.
Additional Settings and Control
-
MIDI Channel Selection: Flexibility in controlling the plugin via MIDI.
-
Mono / Poly Switch: Quickly switch between polyphony and monophony modes.
-
Velocity Sensitivity Switch: Allows you to enable or disable the plugin’s response to the force with which the MIDI controller keys are pressed.
-
Glide Section: Setting the glissando effect (smooth transition from one note to another) with note priority selection and effect level.
-
Output Section: Independent volume level control for the left and right output channels.
RMS1 by Samsara Cycle Audio is not just another virtual synthesizer. It is a tool that inspires creativity, offering a rich set of features for creating unique sounds. It is perfect for creating basses, leads, pads, effects, and much more. The simplified yet powerful design allows you to focus on the sound design process itself, and the quality sound makes it a valuable addition to any plugin collection.
Try RMS1 and see for yourself how easy and enjoyable it is to achieve professional analog sound in your digital audio workstation.
