Taprogramming Releases Dominator Soft Synth

View Single Page

Taprogramming has released Dominator – A synth geared toward the heavy sounds of modern music. The synth accomplishes these sounds differently than other synths by way of a new method of creating wabetables that Taprogramming refers to as ‘Multi-Cycle Wave Analysing synthesis’.

Not to be confused with re-synthesis, this new type of synthesis allows Dominator’s internal oscillator to analyze and draw the initial part of any waveform in 16-bit, 44.1Khz WAV format. Users can then go in with a draw tool to modify the wave form and save it as a preset. Check out more details on the new synthesis method here!

The Windows-only Dominator features a new form of synthesis.

The Windows-only Dominator features a new form of synthesis.

The Taprogramming Dominator synth is available now for $90 MSRP for Windows only in VST format. Now, for more details direct from Taprogramming:

Dominator is a revolutionary new synth that can create the hardest hitting bass-lines to the most sonically clear plucks! All through its radically new method of creating wavetables: Multi-Cycle Wave Analysing synthesis!

Dominator also employs the use of Frequency Dissonance to create Dubstep-style wobbles instead of the traditional use of the LFO (though one is still included)!

Ideal for styles ranging right from: Dubstep, DnB, Electro, House, and Trance to Avant Garde and contemporary!

Oscillator modules:

2x Main oscillators employing Multi-cycle Wave Analysing Synthesis (including 52 pre-analysed wavetables saved in HEX format ranging from simple to complex)
