Arch Avenger Pro features two voltage controlled audio oscillators, each with separate three position octave slide switches, waveform selectors, and volume controls. Oscillator 2 has separate interval control and both oscillators have fine pitch control. Both oscillators have switchable response curves.

Arch Avenger Pro Features

• LFO oscillator switchable between 7 waveforms.
• Voltage controlled amplifier.
• Moog voltage controlled filter, 24db/octave, with self oscillation feature.
• Separate contour generators for VCA and VCF.
• Stereo multitap delay effects.
• Frequency analyser.
• Monophonic or polyphonic operation.
• Retrigger option in mono mode.
• Velocity control.
• 16 channel MIDI.
• Full MIDI/VST automation(can be controlled from your external keyboard).
• Sixty varied presets that show what this synth is capable of.
• 6 note polyphony.

Alien Space Weaver (Free Version) is synthesizer plug-in capable of spacey/dark atmospheric backgrounds and FX sounds.

''One oscillator contains 64 very special samples i.e. fairly long ones being created from various images providing very spacey sounds from the start already. Thus play it slowly and let the sounds evolve. It’s also been called the Eeriator ;-) As of this you might notice there are no ADSR EG, Well, that’s right! There are only A(ttack) & R(elease) VCA EG while all modulations are done by 6 LFO and one S&H with various options.''

ALIEN SPACE WEAVER PRO FEATURES

• 2 PCM wave oscillators with external sf2 files
• 1 24 dB resonant LP filter with ADSR EG and Modulation
• 1 12 dB resonant HP filter with ADSR EG and Modulation
• 2 Filter bypass + modulation
• 2 Bass Enhance
• 2 SpookB Fx (different from the ones used before)
• 2 Delays with manual tempo offset; Pan and modulation
• 2 Pan for undelayed signal
• 6 LFO + 1 S&H as mod sources incl. manual tempo offset from x1 to x4
• 1 Reverb
• 1 Nuthin ? special modulation
• 5 Lazy Buttons (use ‘All’ for limitless patch switching

The Free version does feature only 80 waves in Osc 1 and 10 in Osc 2, three voices,
no sf2 or wave file load for osc 1 & 2, and Nuthin ? does actually nothing here.

Bend Box is free instrument plug-in for Windows.

"Bend Box is a software synthesizer that emulates a circuit-bending device. Can be useful for making experiments and for creating various noise FX. All knobs can be tweaked manually or through easily assignable MIDI controllers. MIDI Automation is also available.

With Bend Box you can get wide range of noises: from the soft gurgling to ringing grinding, or even strange melodic timbres."

Bend Box is available to download as a freeware VST instrument plug-in for Windows PC.

Aethereal is an ambient vector synth for creating evolving atmospheres and textures. Aethereal comes equipt with over 100 built in sampled sounds such as synth tones, atmospheres, vocal pads and sound FX. The sounds can be loaded into four wave oscillators which can be mixed between using a sophisticated 4-Way TransMixer, either manually, with auto-modulation or in a set transition from one sound to the next.

The Auto-Modulation section can also control the Multi-Vector, which uses three X/Y Position Points to modulate various parameters. Each point can be assigned to two different parameters which are then controlled in the vector grid by moving the Position Point up/down & left/right. 
To add to the modulation options is a 16-step mod sequencer, which can modulate things like the filter and pitch.

All of this along with two multi-stage filters, a dual delay, three modulation envelopes and assignable modwheel and pitchbender make Aethereal a very flexible and expressive ambient synthesizer with many possibilities.

• Over 100 built in sounds
• Four wave oscillators with independant amp envelopes; the oscillators are divided into two sections that can be routed to seperate audio output channels
• 4-Way TransMixer for making set transitions from one sound to another; can also be used for manual or automatic mixing
• Multi-Vector for modulating various parameters in an X/Y path (modulation equivelnt of 8 LFOs; 2 dedicated to the 4-Way TransMixer)
• 16-Step Modulation Sequencer - For sequenced modulation of pitch and filters
• Two filter sections, each with independant envelopes, inverters, gain compensation & multiple stages (1-4)
• Three modulation envelopes
• Dual Stereo Delay section
• Assignable pitchbend and modwheel
• 64 presets
