50% off “Phase Plant” by Kilohearts

Imagine The Possibilities…

Phase Plant is a modular synthesizer where you can combine several different synthesis techniques in your sound design. Analog oscillators, samples, wavetables and a noise generator creates the initial sound, which can then be filtered and processed using any combination of Snapins from your arsenal.

To bring your patch alive Phase Plant supports an open ended modulation system, where you can add envelopes and LFOs as you need them and route them to almost any parameter.

To top it all off, audio rate modulations can be used to modulate the phases, frequencies and amplitudes of all generator modules, to create all manner of sounds based on FM and similar techniques.

A Guide To The User Interface

This is an overview of the plugin UI. It may look a bit overwhelming at first, but let’s try to break it down a bit.

• 1) In the top bar the name, author and description of the current patch is shown. By clicking the ‘Browse’ button you toggle the preset browser. To the right you will find ‘Undo’ and ‘Redo’ buttons, allowing you to undo or redo all actions in Phase Plant.
• 2) The eight large knobs under the patch name are known as the macro knobs. These knobs can be routed by the sound designer to any other parameters in the patch in order to provide a few easy-to-reach knobs for tuning the sound of the patch. A single macro knob can even be routed to several parameters.
• 3) To the left below the macro knobs is the generator area. This is where you set up your signal generation with the help of different oscillators and sound generators. Click the icon that appears when you hover over the area to add modules.
• 4) The area to the right of the generators holds the Snapin lanes which is were you add your effects. Each lane can hold several Snapins. Adding new Snapins is as easy as clicking the empty space at the bottom of a lane.
• 5) Along the bottom of the screen is the modulation area. From here you can modulate parameters of your patch using LFOs (low frequency oscillators), Envelopes or MIDI input.
• 6) Clicking on the little keyboard icon in the status bar will reveal the on screen keyboard. You can use this to play notes by clicking on the keys, and it will also show what notes are being played by incoming MIDI messages.

Build The Synth Of Your Dreams

Phase Plant’s open modular architecture gives you the freedom to design anything from compact synths to complex evolving patches within an ecosystem that is fun and intuitive to use. Combine as many generators, modulators and effects as you need to create your own unique sounds with precision and ease.

Superior Signal Generation

Choose from regular waveforms, wavetables, samples, and noise for your source sounds. Make use of an extensive selection of factory wavetables or design your own with Phase Plant’s advanced Wavetable Editor. Start with solid foundations to create original layers and combinations of sounds within one synth.

Essential Effects Included

Phase Plant comes with Kilohearts Essentials, a large range of useful effects plugins. These are all available as Snapins to be combined and modulated as you desire in Phase Plant’s three effects lanes. Keep all your FX processing right inside Phase Plant and baked into your presets. Premium Effects are available to buy separately to further bolster your sound design capabilities.

Mind-Blowing Modulation

Phase Plant’s unique modular modulation section allows you to connect modulators and utilities in an infinite number of combinations for ultimate control, or ultimate chaos. Whether it’s ultra-precise envelopes and LFOs you need or wild randomisation for unpredictable generative jams… Phase Plant has you covered.

FM From A To Z

Unleash the true potential of audio rate modulation with the power to cross-modulate (and even self-modulate) volume, frequency, and phase between all signal generators. Explore new and unusual tones and textures for your productions.

Express Yourself With MPE

With all those effects and modulation available, why wouldn’t you want to get expressive with it? MPE compatibility allows you to control not just the notes and velocities but fine pitch, pressure and timbre too, which means you can really play those presets with unprecedented levels of articulation and variety.

Created by Experienced Developers

At every point in the signal chain, all Kilohearts software is optimised for the highest quality audio generation and processing with the lowest possible CPU load. For professional music production and sound design, you won’t ever have to worry about shortcomings in sound quality again.

Lifetime Free Updates

Once you buy a license for any Kilohearts plugins you will get all future updates for free. Kilohearts won’t charge you a penny for new versions. And they will continue to improve all Kilohearts software with new features and OS compatibility (yes, it’s all M1 Native already!), which means that investing in Kilohearts software is a very sensible move for the serious sound designer.
