Synestia is an advanced multi-effect plugin for the utmost in creative sound processing. It combines 8 inspiring effects: physical-modeled resonators, filters, modulated delays, distortion and more.

Modulation lies at the heart of Synestia, generating complex rhythmic patterns and evolving atmospheric soundscapes. All parameters can be controlled by any combination of a wide range of dynamic modulators.

A flexible and unique approach to patching opens unexpected possibilities, and brings signal routing under the control of dynamic modulation.

Effects
Synestia has 8 different effect types. Many of Synestia’s effects are derived from Plasmonic, but they have all been improved and enhanced to expand their sonic character and capabilities.

Sympathetic
An array of physically modeled resonators. Sympathetic responds to the audio it’s fed with shimmering harmonic textures. Each resonator can be tuned and panned however you like.

Dual Ladder
A pair of self-oscillating ladder filters, combine them to create dynamic new filter shapes.

Echoes
A pair of delays with lots of character, from 0.1ms to 10 seconds in length. Multiple filter types in the feedback path, saturation, predelay, and of course all parameters can be modulated.

Diffuse Delay
A network of modulated delays, covering a huge range of sounds, from shifting metallic resonances to vast spaces.

Flanger
Deep modulated delay effects. This module covers a very wide palette of flanger and chorus tonalities.

Distortion
Saturation and Wavefolding mayhem. From subtle warming to chaotic madness when the feedback knob is turned up!

Formants
Rich and complex filter resonances. Formants can add a lot of tonal character to a patch.

Sidebands
Multi-voice Frequency Shifting, ring modulation and AM. Under construction!


Modulation
All parameters in Synestia can be modulated by any combination of modulators. Modulators can be triggered rhythmically, freely looped, or triggered by audio input. Polarity, depth, inversion are all adjustable per-parameter, making modulation control very precise.

Multi-Segment Envelopes
3 multi-segment envelope generators with 128 segments, with precise editing of breakpoint parameters. More than a taste of Absynth!
