Description: Klevgrand Hillman: a synthesizer with a rich and sweet vintage sound. Inspired by vintage combo organs, string machines and other similar instruments.
Klevgrand Hillman is a synthesizer “inspired by vintage combo organs, string machines and other similar instruments.” Judging by the published instrument trailer, the synthesizer has a vintage and “sweet” sound.
The synthesizer is based on four oscillators with the ability to select the generated sound waveform. Four options are available for each oscillator: Transistor, Tube, Sine, Special Plasma (we have no idea what the last means). Each oscillator can sound at its own volume level and within a given octave range. According to the developers, the synthesizer generates all the signals independently without the use of samples – Klevgrand Hillman belongs to the full-fledged virtual analog synthesizers.
To form the final sound of the instrument, the interface provides an envelope section and a set of sound effects. The latter consists of a chorus, phaser and reverb. Effects work parameters are freely adjustable.
As with other Klevgrand developments, the Hillman interface is simple, clean and as clear as possible even for a beginner.
