Hartmann Announce Neuron VS – Software Synth
US
Acclaimed Neuronal synthesis now more affordable 13/08/04
Feel the power of the Neuron in software
Over the last couple of years, there haven’t been many new synths that cause a stir, but the Hartmann Neuron has certainly quickened the pulse of many synthesists. With it’s unique Nueronal approach using physical modeling and morphing it’s proven capable of some extremely complex sounds and been quite the darling of the synth glitterati, not to mention recieving umpteen awards for innovation.
For many however, the cost of the beautifully designed Neuron has been prohibitive. So now the technology behind it has been transmogrified into a software equivalent.
The Neuron VS is a PC and MAC compatible (VST and AudioUnits) application. The software package includes Nuke - an ergonomic hardware controller, build of sturdy aluminium and attachable to the computer via the USB connector. Nuke is not only the controller for the software being a clever dongle solution, it also protects Neuron VS from software piracy.
Neuron VS is basically built on the same soundengine as the Neuron Hardware Synthesizer. With a highly sophisticated graphical user interface that perfectly interacts with the hardware controller.
Neuron VS includes 2 Resynators,the Blender module, The Mod- and Slicer Module, a Silver Unit (Multimode Filter
plus Time and Frequency Effectunit) and 7 ADSR Shapers (for more details see feature list). Compared to the Neuron Hardware Synthesizer, Modelmaker, Surroundcapabilities,4 levels / 4 times Shapers, high-end Delay and Reverb.
The Neuron VS ships with >300 sounds and >200 Models.
“This instrument will meet the expectations of many musicians out there, that do not have the money to spend on a Keyboard version - or who simply want total integration of the Neuron into their virtual studio setup.” says Axel Hartmann.
Features
Innovative and award winning neural synthesis engine (template driven Multi-Component Particle Transform Synthesis
with realtime controllable synthesis model parameters
Artificial Neural Network controlled adaptive sound analysis for the
parametric transformation of musical monophonic and polyphonic sounds)
2 Resynators, each with 3 Scape and 3 Sphere Levels, Stick recording and Playback
function per parameter level
1 ADSR envelope per Resynator with definable depth per parameter level
1 amplifier envelope per Resynator (ADSR)
2 definable free envelopes (ADSR)
Blender module for manipulating one timbre (from resynator 1) with the properties of another (resynator 2)
8 different blender types
Modulation module -Low frequency oscillator with 12 waveforms
Slicer module for the generation of multidimensional, cyclic modulation with 12 waveforms
Each Model can be manipulated with 12 Parameters (6 x Scape / 6 x Sphere Parameters) that have been detected when analyzing the original sound.
10 different Parameter sets – depending on the specific Model characteristics
Over 300 Sounds included
hardware controller with 4 freely definable encoder knobs, 1 stick controller, 1 select button / 3 LEDs (connects via the USB port of your computer)
The Neuron VS will be available in September of this year.
Pricing is expected to be in the region of €700/$usd
