Supercritical Redshift 6 V 1.3 Goes Multi-timbral

Supercritical Synthesizers has rolled out Firmware Update 1.3 for the Redshift 6, bringing long-awaited 6-part multitimbrality and multitimbral presets into the mix. 

This update significantly deepens the synth's capabilities without complicating its workflow -- a welcome move for performers and sound designers alike. They also released a lovely outdoors demo from their booth at Bungalowdorf from this year's Superbooth.

Key Additions in Firmware 1.3

• 6-Part Multitimbrality
  Redshift 6 now supports up to six independent parts -- each one can be mono, para-, or polyphonic. No dedicated multitimbral mode needed: just activate a new part with a button press.

• Multitimbral Presets
  Supercritical has included factory multitimbral presets and now allows preview-on-browse -- so presets auto-load while you scroll. Handy for quick sound auditioning.

• Envelope CC Assignments
  Amp and filter (VCF) ADSR controls now respond to MIDI CCs -- good news for controller integration and automation.

• Key Range Control
  A new Low/High key limit feature per part gives more performance and layering flexibility, especially in live setups.

• General Polish
  Various under-the-hood improvements and bug fixes bring a more stable and refined experience.

Even before the update, the Redshift 6 was a getting a lot of attention. At its core, each of the 6 voices houses a Demon Core Oscillator pumping out up to 16 analog oscillators per voice making  96 total when fully stacked.

Each voice includes:

• Dual oscillators + noise per paraphonic note (up to 5 per voice)

• Dedicated DCO envelopes for shaping

• 4-pole analog multimode filter with drive and character

• 4 envelopes, 4 LFOs

• 32-slot mod matrix

Available now priced at around £1099 UK
