Applied Acoustics Systems has announced the release of Ultra Analog Session 2, a synthesizer instrument for Windows and Mac.
Ultra Analog Session 2 unfolds as a simple and fun synthesizer. At its core lies a “hard sync” oscillator and filter duo supplemented by a powerful unison imparting a rich and modern sound. Additionally, key synthesis controls, an arpeggiator, and a multi-effect module complete the package for a direct and ludic playing experience.
The factory library comprises 144 presets divided into the Arpeggio, Bass, Lead, Pad, and Polysynth categories. Artists, producers, and long-time AAS collaborators Richard Devine and Sean Divine have contributed 50 signature presets each to this collection.
“Ultra Analog Session may seem basic but it sounds surprisingly big,” said Marc-Pierre, CEO of AAS. “We’ve used the oscillator and filter from our renowned Ultra Analog VA-2 to form a new and original design. With these exceptional components and clever features, Ultra Analog Session delivers rich and expressive sounds that are just a treat to play.”
Ultra Analog Session 2 features
