In Depth Control

The sounds can be modulated via Velocity, Aftertouch, Key Follow and the Modulation wheel. And to top this all off, you have a choice between 8 different FX (Digital Reverb, Digital Delay, Chorus, Flanger, Phaser, Compressor, 2-Band EQ, Skreamer distortion) and an Arpeggiator.

Saffron already comes with a big selection of sounds for you to play with (204 instruments and 80 multis). The big amount of controls encourages you to make your own. The possibilities are endless.

There are 60 different waveforms to choose from, 30 per oscillator. Each OSC has 3 envelope generators.(Amplifier, Filter and Pitch) and 3 different filters, (Low Pass, High Pass and Band Pass). There are 2 Low Frequency Oscillators (LFO’s), a Pitch LFO and a Filter LFO with a choice between 4 different waveforms (Sine, Saw, Square & Random), or the LFO can be switched off. Both LFO’s can be used at the same time.

Rich, Punchy Bass Sounds + So Much More!

Part of the highly recommended BLUE ORB TRILOGY of synths, SAFFRON'S main focus is bass sounds and it ticks this box very well indeed... Loads of warm, punchy, very playable bass sounds that sit well in the mix! Good selection of other types of sound as well in this collection - pads, leads etc. GUI is well organised and easy to use - try creating your own sounds...great fun! CPU use - no issues at all so far + very stable and quick to load.
