Description: Tone2 Electra v2 is not only one of the most powerful synthesizers – it is a complete synthesis solution! Explore a vast musical universe of oscillators with multiple synths, analog filters, chaotic fractals, samples, flexible modulation, and a huge sonic range.
Many say the Electra2 is the most powerful synthesizer on the market. This is a bold statement, but why is it true? Electra2 breathes new life into the term “synthesizer workstation”. With a powerful and technically versatile approach to audio production, it provides you with truly outstanding new sounds.
The device is equipped with a high quality sound engine with multilayer support and a wide range of musical functions. This user-friendly, easy-to-use interface makes it easy for first graders to create sounds and allows experts to delve into sound design as deeply as they want. Thanks to the high-tech Tone2 technology, you not only work with better sound quality, but also lower CPU consumption and a larger palette for creating original sounds than with any other type of workstation.
Electra2 comes with an astounding collection of over 1,300 ready-to-go sounds by professional sound engineers. The Smart Patch Browser gives you an instant overview of all the categories and sounds available. Just select the sound you want – it’s that simple.

Changelog :
Electra 2.8
The update to v2.8 is a major update, which is available for free. It includes a big GUI with 6 different sizes, enhanced sound, higher performance, new features and lots of improvements.

They will benefit from the enhanced sound-quality.

It is possible to select from 6 GUI sizes by clicking on ‘SIZE’.
The plugin detects the screen-resolution and selects the best size automatically.

Pitchwheel and Modwheel are animated when the patch-browser is visisble.
Added Notarisation for the installers on Mac.
