Key Features
The Sampleson Akoustic is an innovative spectral-based synthesizer which lets you mimic the sound of multiple instruments. With its unique approach to acoustic modelling and organic results, Akoustic is capable of producing a vast range of tones and textures, allowing musicians of all skill levels to explore, create, and craft complex sounds.
Developed with obsessive precision and crafted from the ground up, Akoustic allows you to tweak each partial of your sound in subtle yet detailed ways. From partials envelope, tuning and gain, to offsets and micro tuning, you have complete control over every aspect of your sound. In addition to the highly-detailed editing capabilities, Akoustic also features drive, delay and reverb FXs as well as a basic arpeggiator, allowing you to take your sounds to new heights of expression.
In addition to being lightweight and easily loaded into major DAWs, Akoustic requires no extra purchases or third-party players, making it the perfect companion for any musician looking to craft intricate sounds with minimal fuss.
Product Ref: 261050
Akoustic is fully constructed upon organic spectrums from various instruments, such as electric pianos, violas, woodwinds, and basses. This unconventional method allows you to touch every single detail of a sound, from partials envelope, tuning, and gain, to offsets and micro-tuning, creating unique and organic-like sounds. If you're searching for resonance knobs, cut-off filters, and regular subtractive synth features, Akoustic may not be for you.
Every sound created with Akoustic stays true to its acoustic nature. The DNA of acoustic instruments remains recognizable even after extensive editing, resulting in patches with an organic, wood-like sound and analog feel that we love about Akoustic.
Based entirely on spectral modelling, Akoustic recreates organic sounds through additive and spectral synthesis. Its lightweight design eliminates the need for large sampling audios, requiring only the instrument's DNA. Crafting organic sounds has never been easier or more accessible.
