What's new in Voltage Modular 2.0
Following the success of the predecessor, Voltage Modular Core expands on the innovative new features that made the original revered in the synth community. The most feature-rich and sonically flexible modular synthesizer available, Voltage Modular Core, Digital Delivery removes any patching limitations and introduces groundbreaking ways to build complex patches with fewer cables. Modulate in new ways with unlimited cables per jack, create complex patches with the all-new Busses feature and add unlimited Variations to your patch to transform your sound in unprecedented ways. Now featuring an integrated Recording section, the I/O panel lets you record your sessions in pristine 32-bit floating-point audio quality, meaning you always have the ability to record your sounds whenever inspiration strikes.
Electro Drums
Included in this premium bundle is the Electro Drums expansion, brought to you by Misfit Audio. This collection of classic drum sounds are housed in the modular format to provide you with full integration into the Voltage Modular Core platform and includes 14 modules, each with a unique sound bank as well as a selection of presets that spans a wide variety of different sounds and tones. Also included is an eight-channel Drum Trigger Sequencer with extensive pattern and song modes that can seamlessly sync with the rest of your modular synth to create expansive and evolving effects.
High-quality audio processing
Delivering the highest quality of sound possible, Voltage Modular employs 64-bit double-precision math with an internal sample rate of 48kHz. Not only that but each module is operated with zero latency, giving you a truly authentic operation that feels and responds exactly the same way as even the most boutique of hardware synthesizers.
Greater than the sum of its parts, Voltage Modular Core uses advanced, proprietary modelling techniques to produce aliasing-free results that deliver stunning audio fidelity. Carefully recreating the non-linearities that are inherent in hardware units, you are provided with all of the character and personality that analog modules can provide, including examples such as the idiosyncratic curves of analog envelope generator modules. When Cherry Audio describes Voltage Modular Core as indistinguishable from even the best outboard units, it isn't a marketing ploy, it's based entirely on the merit of even the most diehard analog synthesizer fanatics.
A step above the rest
Using superior modelling techniques and algorithms, Voltage Modular Core boasts some of the best performance available in regards to software modular synthesizers. The unique virtual MIDI cabling makes routing polyphonic controls a walk in the park. Using the included quad Poly CV Converter module and the included polyphonic oscillator modules, you can quickly and easily create polyphonic patches. Always looking to push the boundaries, Voltage Modular Core + Electro Drums features polyphonic input and output modules for routing signals from external hardware such as MIDI controllers and keyboards. If polyphonic synth creation is where you will spend your time, there is simply no other choice.
Just like using hardware synthesizers, Voltage Modular Core employs a number of performance optimisation parameters that lets you perform at the same time as moving around cables without needing to select either a separate "edit" or "play" mode. This becomes especially important when arranging your virtual cabinet as the fast and intuitive repositioning of each module means you can instantly drag and drop them to any neighbouring modules without ever having audio dropouts. It's never been easier to audition your signal chain with seamless playback that doesn't suffer from any jittering or artefacts.
Presented in a highly intuitive interface, Voltage Modular Core + Electro Drums, Digital Drums doesn't use any difficult to navigate "behind the panel" routing. Everything that you need is visible to you at all times with non-obtrusive graphics and detailing to ensure that you can concentrate your attention on what matters - sounding great!
Unleash the power of software
Historically, analog hardware modular synthesizers have been a mainstay in studios around the world thanks to the tactile experience of moving real knobs and cables, however with every advancement in modelling technology, software is becoming an increasingly viable option for even the biggest names in music production thanks to its immaculate realism, flexibility and cost.
Voltage Modular Core + Electro Drums takes advantage of what the digital domain has to offer, providing you with six-way multis on every input and output, instant recall presets to load your favourite patches and unlimited flexibility in terms of routing and movement of your modules within the cabinet. Most importantly, there are no limits on the number of modules that can be used within any one cabinet, allowing you to use any number of any modules within a certain patch. With this in mind, if you ever want to push the limits of what's possible with modular synthesis, you can! Use 30 oscillators, 20 filters and 10 amplifiers for a patch if this gets you the sound that you hear in your head, Voltage Modular will always keep up with your demands. To do this in the analog world would not only be extremely costly, but you would also quickly run out of room in your studio.
Additionally, Voltage Modular Core + Electro Drums can save pre-wired cabinets for instant recall in any project with a single click, cutting down on set-up time to let you stay in the creative groove. It's also fully compatible with DAW and MIDI automation to let you control a number of parameters and performance controls with tactile hardware for a hands-on approach.
