Image Line Sawer 1.1.2

Sawer - виртуальный VST синтезатор от разработчиков компании Image Line, которому была оказана дань уважения Советскому синтезатору далеких 80-х "Поливокс". Разработчики уделили особое внимание деталям фильтра Sawer и огибающих, что обеспечивает синтез звука, похожего на получаемый техническими средствами "Поливокс". Sawer, будучи алгоритмическим синтезатором, решает проблему настройки и стабильности, однако таким же образом нестабильность электронной составляющей, связанная с ошибкой в коде, делает механизм синтеза звука очень уникальным. Технически в этом синтезаторе нет ничего революционного - обычный субстрактивный синтезатор с пилообразной волной в качестве главного осциллятора, субосциллятор и генератор шума, полифония в 24 голоса, восьмиголосый унисон, частотная модуляция, 2 ADSR огибающие, четырехрежимный фильтр, блок эффектов и арпеджиатор.


Sawer - virtual VST synthesizer from the developers of the company Image Line, which was given a tribute to the Soviet synthesizer distant 80 "Polivoks. The developers have paid special attention to detail Sawer and filter envelopes, which provides a synthesis of sound, similar to the obtained by technical means "Polivoks.
Sawer, being algorithmic synthesizer, solves the problem of adjustment and stability, but in the same way the instability of the electronic component related to the error in the code, making the mechanism of sound synthesis is very unique. Technically, this keyboard is nothing revolutionary - normal substraktivny synthesizer sawtooth wave as the main oscillator, subostsillyator and noise generator, polyphonic ringtones in 24 voices vosmigolosy unison, frequency modulation, 2 ADSR envelopes, chetyrehrezhimny filter, block effects, and arpeggiator.

Sawer is a vintage modeling synthesizer, that cuts through the mix to deliver precisely articulated and punchy sounds. Sawer pays homage to the envelopes and filters of a rare 1980's Soviet analog synthesizer, Polivoks. Maxx has devoted meticulous attention to the detail of Sawer's filter and envelope designs, ensuring Sawer delivers a unique sonic character reminiscent of the Polivoks hardware. But Polivoks, like all analog synthesizers, wasn't without its problems. Keeping the oscillators stable and in tune has been likened to 'moving a pile of live frogs, by wheelbarrow', impossible! As Sawer is algorithmic, this solves the problems of tuning and stability, however, in the same way electrical component instability makes analog gear unique (if not cranky), Sawer benefits from the 21st century equivalent, a coding error.

While programming the SAW oscillator, Maxx accidentally set some incorrect variables and immediately the sound gained bass, acquired some light but pleasing noise on the attack and an overall richer sonic spectra. Maxx realized this was no mistake but a discovery and built on this, adding some frequency modulation to give it a touch of analog authenticity and so 'Sawer' was born.
