PolyStep: Inspired by the Quasimidi Polymorph Classic from KBplugs
KBplugs PolyStep is a virtual instrument in VST format that invites you on a journey into the world of unique synthesis. Inspired by the legendary Quasimidi Polymorph hardware synthesizer, this plugin is not an exact copy, but offers its own, original vision of the classic sound. Designed with a focus on creativity and experimentation, PolyStep will be a great addition for musicians and sound designers looking for an instrument with character, ready for a deep dive into the sound creation process.
Unique Approach and Features
PolyStep stands out from many other virtual synthesizers due to the philosophy of its creation. Instead of striving for perfect emulation, KBplugs used the Quasimidi Polymorph’s circuitry as a starting point to create an instrument with its own sound identity. This means that you don’t just get a digital twin, but a synthesizer that possesses the spirit of the classics, but is capable of producing completely new, unexpected timbres.
Creating Sound from Scratch: The Advantages of No Presets
Perhaps the most interesting feature of PolyStep is the complete absence of any built-in presets. This is a bold decision that completely changes the approach to working with the instrument, turning it into a real sound laboratory.
Working without ready-made templates, you:
- Create absolutely unique sounds that exist only in your tracks.
- Delve deeper into the principles of synthesis, understanding the relationship between parameters.
- Develop your hearing and intuition in sound design.
- Turn the music creation process into a fascinating study.
- Have complete control over every detail of the sound.
