Explore New Sound Horizons with PhazOsc
Welcome to the world of unique timbres! Introducing PhazOsc – a synthesizer from Fretted Synth, based on the captivating method of phase distortion. If you’re looking for a tool to create original, dynamic sounds that go beyond the standards, PhazOsc is an excellent choice.
Phase distortion unlocks access to a rich palette of sounds: from bright and metallic to warm textures, adding depth and character to your compositions.
What is Phase Distortion?
Phase distortion (PD) is a synthesis method that changes the phase of an oscillator during playback, effectively transforming the waveform. This generates new harmonics, creating complex and rich timbres, similar to those obtained by FM synthesis, but with a different character. The result is unique “bell-like”, “organic” or “metallic” sounds.
Key Features of PhazOsc
PhazOsc makes the power of PD synthesis accessible and convenient. Main features:
- Phase Distortion Synthesis: The main driver for creating a wide range of timbres – from sharp leads to atmospheric pads. Dynamic change of “depth” of distortion adds “life” to the sounds.
- Velocity Control: Sensitivity to playing dynamics for volume (amp) and timbre. This allows for more expressive performance.
- Voice Modes: Monophonic for basses/solos and 8-voice polyphonic for chords/pads. Easy switching.
- Built-in Effects: Delay and Chorus for adding space, depth, and width to the sound directly in the plugin.
- Vibrato (CC#1): Control vibrato using MIDI controller #1 (Modulation Wheel) to “enliven” the sound.
- 64 Presets: Ready-made professional presets for quick start and demonstration of capabilities.
