EmulTuition is an FM (to Oscillators and Filters) and Subtractive Synthesizer. It has useful parameters to emulate typical sounds and instruments and to create new sounds (acoustic, dance, pads, animal, industrial, etc.). Several parameters are modulated by the key velocities and key notes, which increases the naturalness and expressiveness of each created preset.

Features:

• 4 Oscillators.
• 4 selectable effects routing.
• 3 Envelopes with own delay.
• Attack velocity-dependent.
• Envelope Fade key-dependent (to make transitions across the keyboard)
• Decay and Release key-dependent (for example, to emulate the behavior of natural plucked strings, which shortens the decay at the highest notes, and extend it on the lower notes)
• Adjustable Volume Accentuation from Pitch wheel and Modulation wheel.

Wavesfactory has released W-MusicBox, a free music box sample library for Native Instruments Kontakt.

A music box (also musical box) is a 19th/20th century automatic musical instrument that produces sounds by the use of a set of pins placed on a revolving cylinderor disc so as to pluck the tuned teeth (or lamellae) of a steel comb.

We sampled this music box in stereo with a matched pair of mics AKG 414.

This instrument is free, we want to make gifts regularly because we love you. Enjoy your music box :)

The sample pack is a free download (registration required).

A classic lofi effect plugin with 4 output modes to make it less classic :

• > : bitcrushing and samplerate reduction are chained (classic mode).
• + : bitcrusher and samplerate reducer outputs are separated and mixed together.
• * : bitcrusher and samplerate reducer outputs are separated and ringmodulating.
• - : samplerate reducer output is subtracted from bitcrusher output (so if they output the same sound, the effect won’t output anything).

SicknDstroy is available for Windows as VST(32 and 64), and for Mac as VST(32 and 64) and AU(32 and 64).
