Yellowjacket Synthesizer

Features

• All aspects of the 1978 EDP Wasp monophonic synthesizer have been precisely modeled in exacting detail, and enhanced with several imaginative new features
• Over 270 professionally-designed presets in a dozen categories: sizzling Leads, sublime Arps, atmospheric Pads, single-fingered Chords, stunning Strings, deep Basses, and more
• Monophonic, unison, polyphonic (4, 8, or 16 voices), and cycle voice modes with glide
• Innovative Multi voice modes for unison, poly, and cycle that add per-note variation by adding three additional "mini synth" panels, each with their own pitch, pan, filter frequency, VCA Envelope Attack, and VCA Envelope Release settings.
• Quick-access Multi voice panel presets such as Hard Panned, Slightly Detuned, Well Worn, and more to simulate subtle or extreme variations between multiple chained synths
• Dual panel views with a main Edit view for synthesis controls, and an Arp/FX panel with extended features
• Two distinct oscillators with ramp, pulse, square wave, and an enhanced modulated pulse-wave based on the EDP Gnat
• Oscillator sync
• Mixer for both oscillators and a white noise signal generator
• Syncable control oscillator (LFO) with free and retrigger modes, and sine, ramp, sawtooth, square, noise, or random waveforms for pitch, filter, and amp modulation
• Vintage-correct two-pole 12dB state-variable filter based upon the CD4069 logic chip of the original, with lowpass, bandpass, or highpass, with an extra notch mode, and the "Q" resonance setting
• Two envelope generators: a VCA Envelope for volume control with a repeat function, and a Control Envelope that modulates filter cutoff frequency with positive and negative modulation, as well as looping and adjustable attack settings
• Output control with meter and settings for volume, panning, master tune, and limiter
• Support for velocity, channel aftertouch, and polyphonic aftertouch with compatible USB/MIDI controllers
• Keyboard pressure control with six modulation routings: volume, pitch, filter cutoff, mod wheel, reverb decay/mix, and an assignable control that allows a user to select any one of 29 preset synth and effects parameters
• Enhanced capacitive-style keyboard with root and diatonic scales controls, and a transpose control that quantizes notes from the USB/MIDI controller
• Multi-touch enabled (Windows only) - capacitive-style keyboard and pressure meters on the keys respond to multi-touch vertical motion on compatible touchscreen monitors and gesture-capable tablet devices such as Surface Pro. UI can be Maximized to make Yellowjacket fullscreen
• User-selectable pitch bend depth from 0-12 semitones
• All new and dynamic arpeggiator with Chance (step probability) and Humanise to add degrees of randomness to arpeggiated patterns. Combine with the Cycle modes and Scales to create varied patterns, even with the touch of a single key, and create transposable four-note step sequences through Multi voice panels
• Speaker effect (mono) with Hiss and Hum controls that simulates the original instrument's onboard speaker for a lo-fi tone
• Five more studio-quality integrated effects: new Octafuzz multimode overdrive/distortion effect, 4/6/8/10-stage Phaser, Flanger/Chorus, three syncable Echo delays, and five Reverb types. Global FX Out panel with On/Off, Level, and Stereo Expand
• Standalone virtual instrument and plug-in versions included
• Super accurate DAW sync
• User-adjustable oversampling control
• Complete MIDI control and DAW automation for all controls, with easy-to-use MIDI learn and mapping (Preset and Global)
• Cherry Audio's popular Focus zoom-in feature, as well as standard UI zoom and resize via drag
• Complete documentation available directly online from the instrument or in downloadable PDF format
