Real analog sound with the latest features

Saurus offers an authentic analog synth emulation that captures the essence of famous and expensive models without their drawbacks. It features a user-friendly interface and a versatile synthesis engine that offers a wide range of sounds beyond traditional subtractive synths. Saurus uses True Analog Modeling Technology to deliver the warm sound of vintage hardware, with top-notch oscillators that offer PWM, sync, noise, ring mod, AM and FM functions. It includes both standard and exotic oscillator types, and the PW control can morph any waveform, not just square waves. Enjoy true analog sound without taxing your CPU!

  • Filters : A true analog sound needs an excellent filter, which can sound lush or screechy when clipped. While analog filters have imperfections such as distortion, noise, phase shift and self-oscillation - properties that digital filters lack - Saurus models the most well-known analog filters very closely. It includes accurate nonlinearity and self-oscillation to mimic analog circuitry, as well as FM, feedback and analog-modeled distortion for added character.

  • Arpeggiator & Gate : Tone2 has developed an arpeggiator that offers more than just the basic functionality of a note jump. It expands the concept with features such as custom patterns, chords, swing and speed per step. Your arpeggio sequence can be as simple or complicated as you want.

  • Modulation & Effects : Saurus lets you connect numerous modulation sources to sound parameters via drag & drop or via the matrix, enabling modulations at audio rates. MIDI Learn simplifies CC assignment with a right click. To enhance the sound, Saurus includes classic effects such as 4x Unison, Chorus, Delay, Reverb and Tube Amp, all of which offer a first-class sound.

  • Microtuning : Saurus features 7 microtuning modes to model the drift of analog oscillators and can slightly detune voices for fuller, warmer chords. Unlike traditional synths, the innovative microtuning adapts to your melodies in real time and improves your chords automatically and without any additional effort.
