The AAS String Studio VS-3 is a unique string oscillator synthesizer. Its peerless string oscillators give it a truly distinctive sonic signature. It's a two-voice multitimbral device that combines two independent timbres, either stacked or split, to create performance-friendly, rich, and spacious sounds. It has two performance modulators per layer that respond to user-defined MIDI controls. Every library sound has effect and morphing assignments for real-time play, adding expressivity and sonic dimension. The factory library went through a long and meticulous fine-tuning process. Each sound has a consistent gain stage, unity-gain effects, better dynamics, and compelling real-time sound transformation assignments. It comes with four brand-new signature sound packs created by top sound designers, offering 227 new sounds. The improved sound browser makes it easy to find the sound you want, sorting sounds by category and providing shortcuts. The filters can handle extreme modulation while remaining musical. The multi-effects module includes reverb, equalizer, compressor, and guitar amplifier processors. It's compatible with String Studio VS-2 sounds, and you can convert them by simply copying the VS-2 banks into the VS-3's packs folder. It also supports Scala scale file format and reference note frequency tuning for microtonal music.
