The Analog interface consists of two parts: the display surrounded on all sides by the shell. Additionally, each filter and amplifier has its own envelope generator.

Furthermore, the signal flow can be run through the filters in series or in parallel.Īnalog also features two low-frequency oscillators (LFOs) which can modulate the oscillators, filters and amplifiers. These sources can be independently routed to two different multi-mode filters, which are each connected to an amplifier. The primary sound sources of the synthesizer are two oscillators and a noise generator. This sound synthesis method ensures unmatched sound quality, realism, warmth and playing dynamics.Īnalog’s signal flow is shown in the figure below: Analog uses no sampling or wavetables the sound is simply calculated in real time by the CPU according to the values of each parameter. In the case of Analog, mathematical equations describing how analog circuits function are solved in real time. This technology uses the laws of physics to reproduce how an object or system produces sound. Analog generates sound by simulating the different components of the synthesizer through physical modeling. With this instrument, we have not attempted to emulate a specific vintage analog synthesizer but rather to combine different features of legendary vintage synthesizers into a modern instrument.

(Note: the Analog instrument is not available in the Intro, Lite and Standard Editions.)Īnalog is a virtual analog synthesizer, created in collaboration with Applied Acoustics Systems. The Working with Instruments and Effects chapter ( see Chapter 19) explains the basics of using instruments in Live. Live comes with a selection of custom-designed, built-in instruments.
