VK-1 Viking Synthesizer



VK-1 Viking Synthesizer is an authentic emulation of a classic monophonic analog synthesizer. It has three continuously variable wave oscillators, two ladder filters with a Dual Lowpass or Highpass/Lowpass configuration, a multi-wave LFO, and two modulation busses. VK-1 uses state of the art DSP technology to accurately reproduce the sound of the hardware.

Presets
VK-1 comes with 228 presets in the categories Bass, Bright Lead, Electro Bass, FX, Percussive Lead, Soft Lead, and Synthwave. The 50 Electro Bass and 50 Synthwave presets were created by experienced sound designer eXode. The synth excels at thick bass and rich lead sounds.
Oscillators
At the heart of VK-1 are three adjustable wave oscillators. The continuously variable waveform knob gives the oscillators a unique sound that can’t be achieved with the fixed waveforms found in most synths. A noise oscillator provides three types of noise.
Modulation
Two modulation busses and an LFO provide flexible modulation capabilities.
Filter
The filter is a classic transistor ladder filter modeled meticulously. Different drive modes are available for adding grit. The number of poles is adjustable for a wider range of filter sounds.

VK-1 has cutting edge DSP technology:
Oscillators:
– VK-1’s oscillator waveforms were measured from hardware
– VK-1’s oscillators have instability like analog oscillators
– VK-1’s oscillators feature advanced techniques to avoid aliasing
Filters:
– VK-1’s nonlinear filter algorithm uses circuit modeling
– VK-1’s nonlinear filter algorithm features 4x oversampling
New for VST
The graphics of VK-1 have been completely redone with Retina support. Using experience gained over the past several years, the sound quality has been enhanced to sound more rich, smooth, and creamy.
