White Noise Audio have announced White Noise Additive, which, as its name implies, is an Additive synth, initially for Windows as a VSTi. The expected release date is December 2003 and it will cost $99 USD.
White Noise Additive Synth will allow you to visually create your own waveforms, spectral morphs and filters and it will apparently be "one of the most cpu friendly additive synths available"...
Features:
- 2 Spectral Oscillators.
- 128 partials per oscillator.
- Each oscillator has 128 "time frames" to allow sounds to evolve and change over time.
