Description

Surface is a multi-timbral physical modeling voice capable of emulating the sonic qualities

of acoustic instruments or morphing into otherworldly synthetic textures. Physical models

contain plucked strings, prepared piano, and an assortment of melodic percussion, with up

to 8 voices of polyphony. Creating a sense of space is easy with the true stereo outputs

and their configurable spatialization modes.

Surface provides a unique take on physical modeling which blurs the line between emulation

and synthesis to create entirely new worlds of sound.

• Multi-timbral Physical Modeling Voice
