Constructs of Time has announced the release of Gradient, a polyphonic synthesizer for Kontakt Player that captures the raw and organic sound of analogue.
A Eurorack modular system and a modified Arp Avatar are deeply multi-sampled to create powerful mono and wide stereo sound sources. Think tube-saturated sine waves, chorused saw waves, noisy pulse width modulation and powerful ring modulation. Gradient's filters, modulation sources and effects further shape the sound.
The clean and minimal interface makes sound design fast and intuitive. All controls are carefully selected and calibrated, resulting in a big sweet spot.
Gradient comes with 190+ production-ready presets, covering from cinematic pads to deep basses and punchy stabs. NKS compatibility provides a seamless hardware experience. The controls are tailored to each preset for an optimal hands-on feel.
Key features:
- Works with Native Instruments' free Kontakt Player.
- NKS compatible.
- 190+ production-ready presets.
- 2 oscillators (83 waves) & 1 noise generator (21 waves).
- 3 panning modes (alternate, key tracking, random).

- 4 shapers (overdrive, grit, crush, tape).
- 2 envelopes & 2 syncable LFOs with multiple destinations.
- Delay & reverb.
