Drone Synthesizer For Mac And Windows

Inear Display has released Lancinantes which they describe as a drone synthesizer plug-in. They say that, having no amplitude control envelope, its oscillators are freely running, generating a constant sound. Three special additive oscillators are layered, allowing the creation of chords that can be conformed to a melodic scale.

The oscillators are built around harmonic combinations where each partial has a random amplitude modulation applied to create perpetual subtle variations. New sets of harmonics can manually be regenerated at will.

A mixer section allows you to adjust individual oscillators levels as well as the amplitudes of a sub oscillator and a white noise generator. The mixer output then goes through a resonant filter, an overdrive, a delay, and a reverb to further shape the sound.

Most of the settings can be set to random values thanks to a versatile randomizer section.

A spokesperson tildes, “Of course, the real fun starts when you automate the controls and run Lancinantes through your favorite effects.”
