Your Sonic Playground
Phase Plant gives you a blank page onto which you can add signal generators and snapin effects in a quick and creative manner until you are happy with your sound. Grouping your generators and setting output options allows you to create advanced FM configurations in seconds. At the bottom you can add any modulation sources you like. Everything from Envelopes and LFOs to utility features such as randomizers or mathematical operations. Everything is click and drag and users of Snap Heap or Multipass will feel right at home.
The Generators
Phase Plant currently offers four signal generators; Analog, Wavetable, Sample and Noise. More generators are being developed for future free updates. You can add as many as you like and route them freely between each other. There are also several utility modules to allow you even greater freedom in designing your sounds such as groups, mixing, and aux options.
For each generator group you can add an output module to send the sound to an effects lane, master, or sideband. You can also use a group purely as an audio rate modulation source for any other generator.
That’s right, Phase Plant allows for frequency modulation between all types of signal generation! FM from A to Z!
Load up your Snapins
The three effects lanes allow you to load the easy-to-use Snapins you know and love from the Kilohearts Ecosystem as building blocks within your Phase Plant patches. In true modular fashion you simply add and configure the Snapins you need and mix the lanes individually.
Don’t miss that “Poly” toggle at the top of each lane. This enables per voice processing, applying all the effects in that lane to each voice individually, even giving each voice unique random values from the Random modulator.
Ready-to-Use Presets
Professional sound designers have been eager to create factory content for you to begin using right away. Browse over 400 expertly crafted sounds each with customized macro controls for fine-tuning and automation. Search and sort using our keyword hash-tagging system.
We have even included a collection of technical demos showing you how to create certain sounds and effects. Get up to speed with what's possible by going through and learning the essential synthesis techniques.
Take Control
Within Phase Plant, almost every parameter of any element can be tweaked and modulated. Bind any of the macro dials to multiple parameters so you can control and automate significant changes to the overall sound, control modulation ranges and speeds, or adjust effects levels to taste.
Once you discover the power of macros you'll realise the possible uses are endless!
The intuitive modulation system from Multipass has been improved with audio-rate modulations (marked in green) to allow for FM between all generator types. Do you want to FM the pitch of your wavetable using a looped sample as a source? No problem. Then route that modulation back the other way creating a circular modulation and get crazy random results? Go right ahead. All modules in the Generators area have audio rate modulation links on the right hand side, even the filters and distortions.
