Klevgrand has released an update to its virtual instrument which draws inspiration from classic combo organs, string machines, and early synths.
Version 1.1.0 of Hillman brings a visual refresh, semitone pitch adjustment (with fine-tune), a peak meter, scalable UI, new presets and Drive for added grit – enhancing its core functionality while keeping it just as intuitive and playful as ever.
Hillman is a synthlike instrument inspired by old combo-organs, string machines and similar vintage gear. It has 4 voices per note, each with selectable waveform (transistor:ish, tube:ish, sine and special plasma), octave switch and a level control. The sound is generated with an analog approach, but does not use samples or sampled wavetables. Hillman also has an intuitive ADSR envelope control, FX section with Chorus, Phaser & Reverb, and comes with many built-in presets.
