Why a musician must know what Icarus is

Icarus is a exceptionally powerful, new synthesizer with '3D wavetable synthesis'. It offers a fresh signature sound, which quickly catches your audiences' attention. The easy to use interface and a massive amount of inspiring factory sounds allow you to create professional tracks rapidly and with very low effort.

The sound quality surpasses conventional synths. However you don't need to own a NASA computer to be able to use Icarus, since it offers the best possible sound qualityand low CPU requirement.

 

What's new with '3D wavetable synthesis'?

Icarus is a '3D wavetable synth', because we extended the popular traditional wavetable synthesis, which allows to cross-blend waveforms, with an additional dimension for morphing. This is one of the secrets why Icarus can create very special sounds with lots of dynamic expression and movement.

Most of these unique sounds are hard, or impossible to create with other synthesizers. Use unheard signature sounds to make your tracks stand out from the crowd.

 

 

Is Icarus the most powerful synthesizer?

Icarus offers the power of hardware and the flexibility of software. It offers a huge sonic range and is extremely versatile, but still remains very easy to use. The exceptionally powerful audio engine is able to reproduce all important synthesizer sounds.

This synthesizer can do: All classic synthesis methods, 3D wavetables, morphing, resynthesis of samples...  It has: 53 effects, 3x10 stereo oscillators with hypersaw, dual stereo filters with 62 filter types and distortion, an arpeggiator, a vocoder, a wavetable editor...

By using Icarus you can save $xxxxx, since you can replace a wonderful collection of hard- and software instruments with a single synthesizer. An additional benefit for you is, that you no longer have to deal with a large number of different user interfaces.

 

 

How to create great songs quickly and with very low effort

If you want to save time you need audio products which are reliable and efficient to work with. Furthermore you need instant access to a great and inspiring sound library. Discover over 1000 production-ready patches with Icarus' comfortable patch browser. Each sound has been carefully built by a professional sound designer and has been crafted with lot's of love and great attention to detail. The patches always sit right in the mix, because they've been carefully EQed, pre-mastered and are running in perfect sync to the tempo of your track.

You don't need to be Mozart to make Icarus play wonderful melodies. The powerful arpeggiator instantly delivers you inspiring themes. Smart playing aids like autochord assist you whenever you wish this. All patches can be morphed with the modwheel. This makes it easy for you to add exciting movement to your tracks.

A customizable interface allows you to select your favorite color. With several instances of Icarus loaded at the same time, it's even possible to show single instances with different colors. This helps you to keep the orientation, when you're working on a complex project with many tracks.

 

Why you need vocals to create a chart hit

If you listen to successful chart hits, you'll quickly notice that nearly all of them use lots of vocalic sounds. We humans instinctively love them, because they are close to our speech. But adding unique vocals to your tracks is difficult and requires lots of work: You need lots of time, a singer, a microphone, a recording studio, you need to cut samples and finally process the "not so" talented singer with autotune...

With Icarus you can avoid this hassle, because it can sing hymns for you! All you need to do is to pick one of the vocal patches and play a melody on the keyboard. But it's not just some 'vocal samples' from professional singers – it is real speech synthesis. That's one of the secrets why these vocal chants are never out-of-tune. Like magic they are correctly time-stretched for the 'right groove' and synchronize to your song automatically!

With the built-in vocoder module you can make yourself sound electric, just like a robot.

It has never been so easy to create professional tracks with vocalic sounds!

 

Entertainment with effects

Icarus comes with a mighty and flexible effects section. 53 different effects can be combined in modular slots to build new and exciting effects. Save them to your harddisc, use them to tweak existing patches or simply get entertained by your own creations!

 

 

Discover the wonderful world of synthesis!

Don't miss the experience of creating your own sounds! With Icarus anyone can become a great sound designer, since it is fun and very easy to learn. Many animated displays give you visual feedback and make tweaking accessible to anyone, regardless of the skill level. An intuitive user interface offers tooltips and help. With Icarus you can always see and hear what you're doing.

The innovative resynthesis function in Icarus allows you to rebuild nearly any sound with a single mouse-click: Simply click on the resynthesis button and select a wav file. Like magic, Icarus will automatically assemble a patch, which sounds very close to the original sound. Our new algorithm gives better results and is easier to use than traditional methods.

If you want to dive deeper into sound design, there are many exciting morph modes, rich oscillators, a massive amount of wonderful filters and a modular effect section that allows you to shape the sound further.

Experts will want to use the mighty wavetable editor. It includes a large amount of professional tools to tweak wavetables, like an additive spectrum editor or the possibility to paint waveforms with the mouse.

If you design your own sounds, they are automatically stored within your tracks. There will be no broken songs because there are files missing on your hardisc. This means that your musical creations will be always safe. Also, your own patches, waveforms and wavetables can be saved to fxp or wav format. This makes it easy for you to manage your own creations. Exchange your sounds with friends, export them to 3rd party software or create your own sets.

 

 

Spice up your tracks with exciting movement

Modulation is where the true power of the synth emerges. Do you want to use the LFO to wobble your filter? Simply turn a knob and you're on your way.

Modulation can be as simple or complex as you want it to be. By using the modulation matrix, Icarus allows you to connect dozens of modulation sources to all important sound parameters. Modulate almost any parameter, well into audio-rate speed, from internal modulation sources like LFOs, punchy envelopes, gates, step sequencers, and a wide variety of MIDI signals. We've also included midi-learn, so assigning CC's is as simple as a right-click.

 

Is Icarus ready for the future?

Icarus comes with free personal support as well as frequent, free updates and improvements. New features and additional sounds will also be provided regularly. This synthesizer has been designed in a way that it can be expanded easily. The open structure allows you, us and 3rd party developers to extend it with our own content.
