Hey everyone,
I just released Animated East, a synth plugin with a 3D navigable tunnel interface and I want to share it here for free.
Here is a walkthrough video detailing the instrument:
My dream was to make something exploratory and intuitive for users, and I wanted to combine the freedom of playing with hardware instruments / modular and the accessibility of software. It took me years of music making to understand the purpose of an lfo, so I designed this instrument with lots of visual feedback to help these fundamental synthesis concepts click.
It features:
-Drag-and-drop mod (LFO, ADSR, looping AR envelope) on just about every parameter.
-LFO rate extends to audio range.
-One-click random patch generation.
-Drift controls on most modules for adding organic parameter variation.
-Per-voice-panning (with mod on each pan slider as well).
It is available for macOS (VST3 / AU) and Windows (VST3), and you can download it on the Animated Instruments website:
