Product Description
Taste the Power of the Liquid Modular
Modular Synthesizer for complex and organic sounds. Choose from the most particular synthesis methods, let yourself be charmed by the Matrix, and morph between the most improbable variations of your sound. Four sequencers are pulling the strings behind the curtain. The factory is polyphonic supersonics!
Vibrant, Raw, and Spectacular
Evolve your Sound with Minimal Effort!
The 2 oscillators are the tonal ore and each of their 10 different modes is an instrument in its own right. Besides non-aliasing VA-Sync and fractal oscillators, we actually tackled wavetable, waveguide, and FM. We also lifted Cyclop's complex Transformer tool and made it polyphonic: Feed your samples to the oscillators!
Factory opens up new paths to creative sound design – so it’s more than simply another instrument. Generative and durable sounds are child’s play, as well as the direct bass to the beat.
Your Beats Bore the Cat?
Give Factory a go and Combine what no one else has Combined Yet!
Features galore: Looping Envelopes, Oneshot LFOs, bipolar sequencers, Sample + Hold taking it to the top. Wouldn't make sense to list everything here, but whatever you need for your sound will be there and right where it belongs.
Factory's 4 sequencers are the secret force in the background. They can trigger the envelopes, LFOs or the Arp. Or evoke the uncertain, intricate triplet rhythms, aimless sweeps…
Arpiculation
Arpiculation is Arpeggiator and Intonation
All life is imperfect, yet endlessly complex in its beauty. Organic pitch envelopes, slight fluctuation of tone, pitch-quantizing with a fine blend of scales. The Arpeggiator as Factory's data hydra, triggered by God knows what and voice selection via the matrix.
The Arpiculation Page contains all settings and features for pitch manipulation.
Liquid. Mod. Matrix
The 'Switchboard of Sound...' Next Level...
Routing 8 sources to 10 targets make us happy. No retro plug matrix, bipolar mod amounts get the job done. Modulatable. Morphable.
And then there's the random button, an optical feast, blurring your vision for a moment or two. The twerk section with its shenanigans. Get things done with 36 modulation targets. A must-have these days.
Not your Average Preset Clicker

Crank the Crossfader From a Tricky Beat to Some Mellow Chords
Morphing one sound into another, this is contemporary stuff. Set start and finish - then crossfade to the most gripping progressions. Each morph position can be determined as a new starting point.
Sample+Hold: 36 curves with multi-trigger blow out the candles of boredom. This is where the synth came from. It all began with a small matrix and this. Trigger from anywhere and sample a value from somewhere else. Quantize the result and put a lag on it!
