Modal Electronics Limited Cobalt8X 61-Key 8-Voice Extended Virtual Analog Synthesizer Essentials Bundle

The Cobalt8X virtual analog synthesizer from Modal Electronics unlocks the full creative potential of classic analog waveforms. This powerful instrument invites musicians, producers and sound designers to explore a new era of vintage-inspired yet modern synth tones. With its oscillator engine, morphable filters and wealth of sound-shaping tools, the Cobalt8X delivers the warmth and punch of analog synthesis along with unique, complex textures.

Dual Oscillator Groups With Innovative Algorithms

At the core of the Cobalt8X are two independent oscillator groups, each capable of generating up to four oscillators. While these oscillators produce the classic analog waveforms you’d expect, Modal has gone much further by implementing 34 unique algorithms to manipulate those waveforms. Sync, ring modulation, waveshaping, morphing and more can be easily dialed in using simple yet powerful controls. This allows for incredibly rich, evolving tones right out of the box.

Biting 4-Pole Ladder Filter With Morphing Modes

The Cobalt8X’s newly designed 4-pole ladder filter injects warmth and character into your patches. Its self-oscillating design allows the resonance to scream and growl. Four different modes let you morph between low-pass, high-pass, band-pass and notch filtering profiles. Sweeping the resonance into self-oscillation produces everything from searing synth leads to thunderous basses. The filter’s analog-style response and flexible routing make it easy to sculpt the perfect timbre.

Tactile Performance and Polyphonic Expression

With its premium Fatar 61-note full-sized keyboard, the Cobalt8X encourages an expressive, piano-like playing feel. Its eight true polyphonic voices let you stack fat chords and evolving pads. For even more nuanced expression, the Cobalt8X supports MPE (MIDI Polyphonic Expression). This technology allows you to control multiple parameters like filter cutoff, resonance and effects for each individual note. Unleash your creativity through organic, multidimensional performances.

Creative Sequencing and Modulation Tools

The Cobalt8X is loaded with powerful tools to expand your sound design capabilities. The real-time and step sequencers unlock complex, evolving patterns and arpeggios. Comprehensive modulation options let you route LFOs, envelopes and other modulators to nearly any parameter for animated, dynamic results. Top it off with lush studio effects like reverbs, delays and distortion to polish your sounds.

Everything You Need in One Bundle
