Tracktion Corporation has announced the release of its latest virtual instrument Hyperion, an inspirational, multi-layer, modular synthesizer, designed and coded by Paul Carter AKA Wavesequencer.

A child of the eighties, developer Paul Carter, took his inspiration for Hyperion from electronic music artists like Vangelis, Jean-Michel Jarre and Brian Eno. His years of experience in both firmware and applications for consumer electronic products, plus his passion for sound synthesis and music, combine to make Hyperion a contemporary digital modular masterpiece.

Hyperion is a powerful VST3/AU plugin (64-bit) for both Windows and Mac. Designed from the beginning for sonic flexibility, it has easy to follow, efficient modular processing which is capable of up to ten layers of complex sound patches. It features a wide variety of synthesis types, adaptable patching, pitch bend ranges, tuning, arpeggiator and individual per-layer effects. Hyperion also contains multiple kinds of filters, distortions and buss effects as well as logic and math nodes for generative patch design. Check out the Patch demo here.

The unlimited sound processing elements of Hyperion offer all the warmth and emotion associated with analogue in an infinite design playground. It has a huge array of surgical controls and data generation options and the ability to quickly layer and split polyphonic modular patches. All in all an instant source of musical inspiration for music producers of all genres.

Hyperion is available for purchase for $129 USD. An unrestricted, free trial version is available to download.
