Neuzeit Instruments released WARP

Posted on by

Neuzeit Instruments released WARP, a synthesizer with a novel hybrid engine that combines the best of additive and wavetable synthesis. It is a feature-rich powerhouse that lets you create all kinds of sounds, from glassy clean to crunchy crunch. Thanks to expressive macro tone controls, extreme morphs are possible in a single pot turn. With the integrated editor you can playfully draw your own overtone spectra into the colorful XY matrix and also export them as wavetables for other synths.

Main functions

  • Complete synthesizer with 4 voices and 2 oscillators each
  • Innovative hybrid of additive and wavetable synthesis
  • Four voice polyphonic with WarpEx Expander, monophonic as standalone unit
  • MPE and MIDI capable with WarpEx Expander, but also playable polyphonic with 4x CV & Gate
  • Comes factory equipped with numerous Factory- and Artist-Created features
  • Large pots act as performance-oriented macro controls for several internal parameters
  • Each pot has its own CV input
  • Graphically appealing, animated and easy to follow menu
  • Internal modulation: 2x ADSR, Note-Key and 2x LFO with a variety of waveforms
  • External modulation: OMNI CV input (24-bit), MIDI velocity, MIDI aftertouch, MIDI CC
  • Powerful and clearly animated modulation matrix with 8 x 19 = 152 internal modulation values per voice
  • Many modulation destinations can be modulated at up to 24kHz, a unique feature in digital synthesizers
  • The XY matrix serves as a pool of 32 x 16 overtone spectra from which each voice draws its basic sound
  • X and Y position to scan overtone spectra in two dimensions (with interpolation), as in wavetable synths
  • Complex spectral filter is applied to overtone spectrum before wavetable is calculated in real time
  • A mix of wavetable effects changes the waveform in the time domain: Fold, Drive, Bend and Redux
  • The waveform is used by two oscillators per voice, which can interact through several effects
  • Oscillator effects: Linear detune, Sync, AM, FM, Phase distortion, filtered noise
  • Low-pass and high-pass filters with 12 or 24dB per octave as well as filter resonance
  • Two outputs for stereo or two signal busses. 24 bit, 48kHz output, 32 bit internal
  • Pitch adjustment with stepped encoder in octaves, semitones or fine tuning. Quick reset on long-press
  • Several intuitive editors on board to draw your own overtone spectra or derive them from audio files
  • Wavetable export function to create wavetable files in the appropriate target format for other synthesizers
