Designed in a glorious partnership between Plankton Electronics and Winter Modular, Zaps is a percussion-line synth voice designed for creating organic sequences that can mutate over time.
It uses a combination of different techniques such as controlled randomness, morphing, and storing (or locking) synth-voice parameters in CV-controlled slots which can be externally sequenced.
The synth voice is a digitally controlled two-oscillator FM and AM-analogue engine with two envelopes and cross-modulation.
- Sequence Preset Slots externally for changing percussion or synth lines
- Add subtle randomness to any parameter for slightly changing sounds, or go wild for unpredicted surprises on every trigger
- Morph sounds between Slots
- Assign accent to any parameter for added expressiveness
- Randomly generate full banks of sounds
- Capture any randomly generated sound into a preset slot for further editing
- Freeze/Revert the state of the module for careless editing during live performances
- Live editing of a single or multiple Slots simultaneously for expressive tweaking
- Generate melodic percussion or synth lines with the V/O tracked oscillators
- Use CV-in control of any parameter or CV-out control for external modules (control FX-sends or automate external-synth parameters)
