Welcome to the world of warm analog sound and limitless creative possibilities with the Mate plugin from Acrobatics! If you are in love with the unique atmosphere and character of 70s and 80s synthesizers, but are looking for a modern, flexible and effective tool for your digital studio, Mate is made for you. This virtual instrument embodies the spirit of the classics, combining it with cutting-edge technologies to achieve impressive results.

Inspired by the past, created for the present

Mate doesn’t just imitate the sound of vintage synthesizers; it breathes their history, conveying the same magic and expressiveness that made them legendary. Developers from Acrobatics have carefully researched classic instruments to create a plugin that can reproduce their characteristic timbre, warmth and dynamics. But Mate is not limited to retro sounds. It is a versatile tool ready to explore new sound horizons.

A variety of timbres for all needs

Thanks to its flexible architecture, Mate easily reproduces a wide range of classic timbres. Feel the power and richness of vintage synthesizer patches that are ideal for funk, disco, synthwave or 80s electronic music. The plugin also skillfully handles the emulation of acoustic instruments, reproducing rich and expressive string parts, realistic piano sounds, dense and deep basses, as well as ringing and rich sounds of organs and bells. This makes Mate an extremely versatile tool for composers and producers working in a variety of genres – from pop and rock to electronic music and soundtracks.

From realism to outer space

In addition to reproducing familiar sounds, Mate invites you on a fascinating journey to uncharted sound worlds. Its flexible modulation capabilities and advanced programming allow you to easily create unique, wild and “cosmic” atmospheric textures. Experiment with LFOs, envelopes, filters and effects to shape sounds that go beyond the ordinary. Whether you need an atmospheric landscape for an ambient track or an unusual lead for an electronic anthem – Mate will give you the tools to bring your wildest ideas to life.

Technical excellence and ease of use

Acrobatics Mate is designed with an emphasis on performance and integration into your workflow. It is equipped with 32-bit ultra-optimized code, which provides zero latency and independence from the sampling rate of your project. This means that you can enjoy stable and fast plugin operation regardless of your audio interface settings and the complexity of the session. Each control element on the Mate interface – from knobs to switches – is fully available for recording and automation in your host (DAW). This gives you complete control over the dynamics and evolution of the sound throughout your composition. Most parameters also support external control via MIDI controllers, which makes playing and experimenting with Mate even more intuitive and expressive.
