Initial Audio has announced the release of its new software instrument SourceLab, an intuitive, efficient modular synthesizer without limits.
After over a decade of refining tools for creators, we’ve crafted a plugin that stands above the rest: 6 sound sources, each capable of being a Wavetable Oscillator, Sampler, or Loop Slicer. Designed for producers, sound designers, and composers who demand excellence, SourceLab is your gateway to unparalleled creative control.
SourceLab features
- 6-Layer Hybrid Engine: Each of SourceLab’s six sound sources can function as a Wavetable Oscillator, Sampler, or Loop Slicer—even blend modes for endless sonic possibilities.
- Unrivaled Content Library: 1,300+ presets (synths, multisamples, hybrid sounds, drum kits & loops), 600+ MIDI files & 300+ wavetables, 4 GB of top-quality content, all BPM-synced with Zynaptiq’s ZTX time-stretch.
- Advanced Sequencing & Modulation: 6-layer MIDI sequencer with master lane routing, 14+ modulators (AHDSRs, LFOs, MSEGs) with custom shapes and trigger modes, Granular engine for creative chops, with arpeggiator mode.
- Pro-Grade Effect Racks: Six fully routable FX racks (compressor, reverb, delay, multiband, and more) plus a master rack for final polish—mix and master without leaving your DAW.
- Self-Contained, Shareable Presets: Every preset bundles samples, loops, MIDI, and wavetables into one file—no more missing-file errors. Drag-and-drop to share or collaborate instantly.
