vintage synths
Analog Factory brings you 2000 legendary synthesizer sounds that have shaped modern music production. From classic phat lead lines to crystalline digital pads, this virtual instrument provides the contemporary musician with a broad, versatile and instantly striking sonic palette.
But Analog Factory is not only a powerful source of amazing synthesizer sounds. It is also a very versatile instrument: all sounds are dramatically modifiable, which makes this software stand apart from any sample-based collection of sounds. Analog Factory has been developed with TAE®, Arturia's award winning proprietary technology for analog emulation, which guarantees an unprecedented accuracy in modelling originals.
Using the smart Preset Manager allows you, in just few clicks, to find the sounds you need from among the huge preset collection, while the editing capabilities are kept to the most essential parameters, allowing you to instantly customize the sound to suit your sonic needs. There is no need to dig into the complex art of sound design, or to deal with the science of sound synthesis. Instead, you get instant access to the powerful and dynamic sound of real analog synthesizers, created by a team of internationally renowned sound designers, all wrapped up in an intuitive interface.
Analog Factory not only integrates seamlessly into all the major hosts and sequencers on the Mac and PC platforms, but it can also be used in standalone mode and easily controlled by a remote external MIDI keyboard, with keys, knobs and faders, allowing you to make dramatic changes via a simple twist of a knob.

Version 2.2.1 |
MacOS X UB |
(App, AU, RTAS, VST) |
Aug 30, 2009 |
New Features:
* Better management of the key parameters: 4 LCD's now displays the parameter controlled by the "Key parameter" knobs.
* New set of performance parameters: Some new parameters are accessible for each sound, the pitch-bend range, the polyphony number, the polyphony mode(Mono, unison, poly), the size of a step in a sequence, and the MIDI synchronization on the LFO.
* Modulation Wheel improved support: All sounds now respond to the modulation wheel.
* Mac Power PC version now compatible with Logic and other Audio Unit hosts
Bug corrections:
* Version 2.2 address issues when running in Pro Tools on Mac OS X Leopard
* When using the Analog Factory Experience keyboard with a host (Cubase, ProTools, Logic…) there was a problem when a current preset was changed; the virtual knobs would keep their previous value. This is no longer the case.
* Audible steps when stepping filters removed
* Some computers holding a specific video card got a blank window under Leopard. This is no longer the case.
* Mac OS X: Menu bar has been moved where it should be, at the top of the screen
* Reported Crash in Logic and Live 6/Live 7 in various circumstances fixed

The PC version comes with a brand new installer, faster than the previous one. There is no freezing problem with the installer anymore.
We fixed a compatibility issue with Logic 5.5 PC and Samplitude : the vst plugin didn't produce any sound in these host. This problem is now fixed.
We fixed a problem on ProTools when running with a sample rate different than 44.1 kHz : the plugin was out of tune in 88 or 96 kHz.
Fixed a compatibility issue with Sonar : Analog Factory crashed during the plugin validation. It now pass the validation properly.
On Digital Performer, the splash screen sometimes rested even after quitting DP. This problem is now fixed.
We fixed a bug on the minimoog oscillator. It was going out of tune after some time. It now stays in tune properly.
We fixed a bug on the Prophet VS filter. VS presets should sound exactly the same, but there's now a wider control on the filter for VS presets.
