“warm bass” → “warm bass with soft pad”A bass with vintage weight. Brass that bites. A pad that opens into something new. sonarch gives musicians and producers quick, repeatable access to classic character and modern synthesis across six engines, with over 400 presets to explore.
The goal is the spirit of those instruments, not complete replicas. Each model focuses on the sound-making architecture and musical behaviour that give it character. It does not reproduce every circuit, control or quirk of the original hardware.
Start with a description, then shape the result as far as the chosen engine allows. Stay with a classic voice’s particular strengths, or explore SuperSynth for broader sound design. Discover the approach →
For the curious
Explore six engines spanning analogue, four- and six-operator FM, wavetable, hybrid sample synthesis and SuperSynth. From a quick adjustment to a custom modulation curve, the sound remains yours to shape.
