Whether you own lite, intro, standard or suite, this amazing and super musical little guy is yours. The design idea behind Drift was to create a synthesizer that largely behaves much like old school vintage mono and poly synths that have tiny inconsistencies in pitch, filtering, and phase. When these aspects of the synth “drift“ around, you get that all illusive but so musical sound that is very difficult to achieve in the digital world. The filters are also designed to behave like real analog filters which behave differently depending on how much gain they receive. What may seem like a simple synth on the surface hides many really awesome features such as the ability to turn envelopes into LFOs or LFOs into envelopes, FM and AM synthesis, variable wave shapes in oscillator 1 and so on. In this video we get under the hood of this incredible sonic tool.
