Xhun Audio LittleOne Synth and IronAxe Guitar Bundle eLicense

LittleOne is a faithful software emulation of one of the most legendary and appreciated hardware analog synthesizers.
In addition to the whole signal path simulation, every single component inside LittleOne (oscillators, filter, envelopes, LFO ...) features the original frequency responses and ranges of the hardware counterpart, producing a deep, rich and warm sound.
Add to the equation a full rack with a 16-step MIDI sequencer, a 16-step trancegate effect and two master effects slots and the result is a complete analogue-sounding instrument - all in the digital domain.
Nobody's Perfect
Perfection is not of this world. In nature, due to its inherent complexity (and beauty), everything is unpredictable, seemingly - for us - out of control. This makes things so special.
This is true for everything, also for musical instruments.
Based on analog electronics components, an analog synthesizer brings within itself all the imperfections of this technology. This is why its sound is so warm and rich.
LittleOne synthesizer is entirely built on this concept.
Based on casuality (like in the real world), every component inside LittleOne has its independent instability and micro-imperfections. This means that - playing the same note twice - LittleOne will never produce exactly the same sound. As nature teaches.
Together with a high-end DSP technology, this feature brings brilliance, genuineness and depth to the sound.
Analog component emulation simulates the authentic micro-instability and imperfections of the oscillators, filters, and LFOs
Two aliasing-free analog modeled oscillators featuring continuous wave selection mode between triangle, saw, square, pulse
4-pole resonant low pass filter modeled on the classic ladder, featuring the original frequency responses, self-oscillation, soft-clipping and overload control
Two, 4-stage (ADSR) envelope generators with exponential response
Modulation LFO with the original waveforms and frequency ranges (0.2~500 Hz) including FM possibilities
Monophonic/polyphonic mode, pitch bend ranges, MIDI channel selector, and more
350+ presets covering all styles, from vintage analog to FM, to contemporary cutting-edge techno/trance to psychoacoustic sounds, and SFX
Original Little Phatty patches included (Stage Edition and Tribute Edition)
16-step MIDI sequencer
16-step trancegate effect
Two master effects slots with a choice of tempo synced stereo delay, electronic reverb, tube distortion, flanger, and chorus
Full MIDI CC (Continuous Controller) mapping
44.1 to 192 kHz sample rate support
Additional commercial soundbanks/patches available
Xhun Audio IronAxe PC Analog Modeling Electric Guitar eLicense
IronAxe is a high-end Physical Modeling simulation of one of the most popular and loved electro-acoustic instruments of all time : the Electric Guitar.
The result of many years of research and development, IronAxe reaches all the authentic beauty and expressivity of a real Electric Guitar by simulating the physics of all the acoustic and electronic components found in the original instrument, preserving the same nuances and multi-techniques playability impossible to perform on standard frozen-sounding sampled instruments.
Break with the past - forget all the old, expensive, bulky sample libraries.
IronAxe will bring in your next Productions the sound and feel of a real Electric Guitar. And the included full set of analogue modeled Stompboxes, legendary Amp/Cabinets and Room Simulation, make IronAxe a perfect tool for advanced guitar sound designing, without the need of additional (and expensive) external software/hardware units.
A full electro-acoustic setup, just at your fingertips.
Modeling Reality
Modeling Nature and Physics is a growing practice for reaching true-to-life systems simulations with 'alive' feedbacks, including complexity management and unpredictability integration.
While in the past running an accurate Physical Modeling simulation was possible (due to its complexity) only on expensive multi-processor workstations or even computer clusters, today thanks to the exponential increase of modern CPUs' processing power, reaching parity with real instruments is possible in real-time (including polyphony and multi-istances possibilities) at a fraction of the costs.
"The continuum between sampling and modeling is analogous to the extremes of motion photography versus computer-generated animation in film making. Just as computer-generated graphics is finding increasing use in films, model-based musical instruments are likely to grow in importance over time..."
J. O. Smith, CCRMA Stanford University
IronAxe is the first in a series of instruments developed by Xhun Audio to use this revolutionary technology. The core of this kind of approach is the interaction between the Instrument's model, the Performer's model and the Unpredictability simulation.
All the six Strings, the Transducers (Pickups), the Plectrum/Finger excitation and more as well as Performer's actions like Palm Muting, Tapping Harmonics (even muting a String after its excitation is possible) are physically simulated. Add Unpredictability (instrument's and performances' micro-imperfections) to the equation and what you hear at the end of the whole process is given by the interaction of this three worlds.
The result is an 'alive' instrument, a state-of-the-art simulation for an unparalleled realism.
