Inear Display has announced an update to its percussion synthesizer plugin that uses FM synthesis generate its sounds.

Version 1.5 of Ephemere adds extended polyphony control, a new oscillator feedback mode, mixer controls and value displays.

Ephemere makes it easy to add variety to your rhythmic patterns by attaching a randomization setting to most of the synthesis parameters as well as a trigger probability per sound. By keeping the synthesis engine simple yet powerful and providing extensive randomization options, Ephemere is an invaluable tool to very quickly design custom synthetic percussion sounds.

Changes in Ephemere v1.5

  • New: Polyphony parameter with mono mode and extended polyphony.
  • New: Additional mode for the oscillator feedback.
  • New: Part preset navigation and randomization controls available in the mixer for quick access.
  • New: Value displays for knobs and sliders.
  • Fixed: possible crashes when using the “clone selected part” function.
  • Fixed: minor user interface inconsistencies.

Available for Windows and Mac (VST3/AU), Ephemere is priced 49 EUR ex. VAT at the Inear Display store. The update is free to existing owners of the plugin.
