Introduction

A deep and futuristic collection of sounds perfect for modern electronic producers, composers and sound designers - Pulsar delivers powerful bass, electrifying leads, sunken and winding atmospheres, otherworldly pads, effects and more.

Designed and developed by Richard Gale and Carlo de Gregorio, the sounds of Pulsar are rich, detailed and unabashedly modern with electronic timbres ranging from flowing analog-inspired leads to immersive granular soundscapes. Pulsar delivers powerful fundamentals and charactered sounds in categories including atmospheres, bass, effects, leads, pads, plucks, sequences and arps.

Each of the sounds in Pulsar is designed to be expressive and playable, providing unique controls and macros allowing you to sculpt your sound and create dynamic performances. Dedicated ADSR envelopes, filter and effect macros and more make it quick and easy to perfectly dial-in your sound.

The versatility and clarity made possible by Falcon is evident throughout this collection, utilizing numerous synthesis techniques including wavetable, virtual analog and physical modeling, as well as robust use of effects and modulators. Sounds can all be quickly previewed, edited, layered or performed with nearly limitless variation thanks to Falcon’s semi-modular architecture.

Program Information

Press the Script button above the panel to switch to Falcon’s macro view, then the (i) button in its upper right to display program information. Many factory presets contain details about the program such as modwheel assignments, macro descriptions or tips for playing it. You can add and save descriptions for your own programs as well.

EDIT Page

If you want more control over a sound than the macros provide, the EDIT tab gives you full access to all parameters. Patches in Falcon are built within a fixed hierarchy: at the very top is the Program, inside the Program are Layers, within each Layer are Keygroups, and inside the Keygroups are Oscillators. Audio effects, MIDI effects and modulators can be placed on any level.
