Archetype is a Kontakt library composed of 8 different instruments designed by Sonic Faction. Each instrument has been sampled from hardware synthesizers and completely redesigned for
Kontakt.
SICKNESS
Sickness is loaded with dual multi-oscillators that can switch between hundreds of classic waveforms, grain & formant wavetables and the undeniable hyper saw. Match that with a dedicated sub to raise the intensity to new levels.
ROGUE-ONE
Rogue-One is a classic vintage synth updated for the modern era. With the ability to detune oscillators from each other, Rogue-One delivers serious analog fatness as well as dark, cinematic tones and deep, brooding soundscapes.
Rogue-One’s vintage oscillators are rich with harmonics. Combine this with cavernous reverb, endless delays, deep phasers and a glitchy Granulizer for an epic sound that will mesmerize any listener.
PULSATOR
Pulsator has 2 beefy digital oscillators capable of gorgeous pads, devious leads and extremely aggressive basses. Detune them from each other to achieve thick, stacked leads or resounding chord progressions.
At the core of Pulsator is a fractal heart animation that pulses with your sound. Increase the filter cutoff knob and experience digital palpitations. The ring knobs encircling the heart control the infamous X-Mod oscillator which causes wild sonic fibrillations.
HATCHET
Hatchet is a melodic monosynth capable of soaring leads and warm funky basses. Blend between the rich saw and square oscillators or detune them for classic analog fatness.
Hatchet’s warm analog tone can be affected in many ways by onboard LFOs and FX. Create subtle dynamic filter shifts over time or use beautiful, dark reverbs and bit crushers to add depth and modern character to your sound.
EVILFISH 303
Evilfish 303 is a hyper-sampled version of the now-classic hardware mod. It comes loaded with 8 levels of analog overdriven waveforms, for an extra-chunky low end. The result is undeniable analog fatness and absolutely ravenous bass lines.
Evilfish’s classic 303 style filter is morphable and can be switched to notch or formant mode, which animates bass lines with a robotic vocal quality. Dial-in additional levels of destruction with Saturation, Distortion, Redux, and NUKE.
CLONE
Clone is the quintessential 80’s synth, redesigned for the future. At its heart are 3 raw, analog oscillators and a host of envelopes, LFOs, and FX. Clone excels at sinister, arpeggiated bass lines, raw distorted leads and modulated madness.
The centerpiece of Clone’s interface is the Delta Triangulator, a unique set of controls used to dial in 3 LFOs at once. Harnessing it can quickly lead to interesting modulations. Crank up the VCF Cutoff knob to make the Clone head animation explode.
BEATDOWN
Beatdown is a rhythmic force to be reckoned with. Mix and match drum sounds from over 40 kits on the fly or switches over to Global takeover mode to effect the entire drum kit at once.
Manipulate your rhythms with microscopic precision using each cell’s dedicated Envelopes and LFOs. Change the engine for that old school sampler flavor or stretch drum tones into oblivion using Granulizer.
WHOOSH MACHINE
Whoosh Machine launches into the void with blistering transitional FX, drones, and atmospherics. Blend sources for an enigmatic mix of noise, synth tones, and textures.
Whoosh Machine’s unique heads-up display gives you instant access to frequency and rate dials, along with creative envelope controls for perfectly executed whooshes.
SEQUENCER
All Archetype instruments come equipped with a flexible step sequencer for creating unique patterns on the fly. Sequence your beats or generate melodic arpeggios. Sequence modulate any parameter. Save and recall patterns on the fly.
