News: Sugar Bytes – Cyclop
Posted on | Juni 2, 2012 | No Comments
Sugar Bytes released Cyclop, a new synthesizer/sampler plugin most suitable for dubstep.
“Cyclop has landed. A powerful monster that has grown out of all the sounds in the universe. And with it comes bass — lots of it. Synthesis in its purest form. Spectral, digital, or fat analog. Use your own samples as a wavetable, throw effect sequencer orgies, drop on filters and make wobble basses never heard before. Cyclop is here to create new sound. Wrap your bass around your drums like melted sugar around a hot chili pepper. Cyclop is monophic and it will blow your mind. Wobble bass? Dubstep? Do something completely new!”
