    Hi All,

    We’re extremely pleased to introduce Modus, a new style of instrument which combines the science and power of physical modelling with the control and range of a traditional synthesiser.



    Modus uses powerful physical modelling to mimic the way strings and plates behave, giving you several formulations of these elements to create three types of instruments: Strings, Plates and Strings-Plate. You control the relationship between these elements and their connection through “Rattles” or “Springs”, producing a range of dynamic overtones and textures depending on your chosen configuration.

    Modus is a virtual synth environment that simulates a rich physical dimension, which means you have control over first, how the elements behave, and second, how they’re processed. The more you delve into the effects and modulation options available to you, the more depth you’ll find in your sound – there’s playable realism in every corner of the plugin.

    To celebrate the launch of Modus, you can get it from https://physicalaudio.co.uk/products/modus/ now with 40% off for a limited time only.

    Feature List:
    • MPE-compatible
    • LFO modulation
    • High and Low-shelf EQ
    • Per-sound gain mixer
    • Pre-amp limiter
    • VCF with Moog-modelled drive
    • Stereo Delay
    • Reverb
    • Output Trim
    • Damp control
    • VST3, Audio Units, AAX; Universal Binary for Intel & Apple Silicon

    Important information :
    Pricing: launch promo 72.60€, regular price 121€

    PS: I prefer to know the price before I click a link, otherwise it already smells bad...

    Which are the demo mode limitations?

    The website is blocked in my country for some reason (it's probably something in your end since my country doesn't block random websites and website hosts)

    Dash Glitch posted a nice overview video about Modus yesterday



    Very interesting approach to Synthesis. Too bad that I'm broke as f**k :rofl:

    I'm a fan of physical modelling, but this doesn't do it for me. Hard to get anything useful sounding IMO.

    Pianoteq is super underrated for experimental sounds, and the newest version allows making hybrid models. Fingers crossed it sees the light of day on the sister site, but the last release was years ago.

    We've released an update to Modus, v1.2.1. This has a new MIDI/MPE window with customizable settings, enhanced LFOs, and tweaks to the audio engine.
    The update is available at https://physicalaudio.co.uk/downloads
