From Our Research Team:Serious Software SynthThe GForce impOSCar2 virtual analog synthesizer is modeled on the OSCar - the mythical early '80s synth many savvy synthesists consider to be England's answer to the Minimoog. If you crave fat, lush (and frequently outrageous) subtractive synthesis sounds, you'll find plenty to love here. impOSCar2 also includes additive synthesis, plus a host of tweakables to keep you stoked. You get dual oscillators and a serious assortment of multimode filters, envelopes, ring modulator, an arpeggiator, Chord Memory, polyphonic and channel aftertouch, mono and poly Unison modes, and a ginormous Patch Library. The sounds? Brilliant, mate. You're going to love GForce's impOSCar2.GForce impOSCar2 at a Glance:
Oozes character, playability, expression, and sound sculpting opportunities Successor to our multi-award winning impOSCar software synthesizer, impOSCar2 gives you more: more modulation choices, more sound sculpting opportunities, and more effects. The result is not merely a synth modeled on an '80s holy grail hardware synth, but a new breed of sound monster with massive expressiveness and tweakability. Since the original impOSCar was released, GForce has paid rapt attention to the wish lists generated by its fiercely loyal users, and incorporated the most meritorious suggestions into impOSCar2. Multiple Mono and Poly Unison Modes Utilizing impOSCar2's various Mono and Poly Unison modes lets you create anything from screaming leads to colossal 8-voice Poly Unison stacks with 16 note polyphony. Further enhancing your sonic horizons, the Unison Detune dial ramps unison voice tuning from understated to completely insane, for the fattest sounds ever to emerge from a virtual synth. GForce's inclusion of multiple Unison modes make impOSCar2 absurdly versatile. Go nuts with Effects Process drums, vocals, or any other audio source through impOSCar2's filters, envelopes, ring modulator, et al, and you'll unleash serious sonic potential - and possibly sonic armageddon, if you're not careful. For certain hosts (including Logic) there's also a side-chained MIDI-controlled Effect available, letting you route audio through the arpeggiator. Now, that's just sick (and we love it). If you're into synthesis, the GForce impOSCar2 belongs in your studio. GForce impOSCar2 Features:

by chris allan from Ventura, CA
I have a great many softsynths and impOSCar (now impOSCar 2) is one of the very best. I've never used the original Oxford OSCar synth so I can't say how accurate GForce's emulation is, though I assume... read more [+] it is very good since their Minimoog emulation sounds very much like a real Minimoog. But this is probably less important than whether a softsynth sounds good on its own and is musical. And impOSCar 2 sounds excellent. I would say that impOSCar is an essential synth for anyone making new age or ambient music. In fact, it is arguably one of the three or four must-have softsynths for anyone working in these musical genres, along with Spectrasonics' Omnisphere, Camel Audio's Alchemy, and Waldorf's Largo. The sounds can be extremely lush and atmospheric, but without sounding cold, and it really excels at pads, though its leads are also quite good. For dance music it is perhaps less essential (it certainly does not sounds like a synth like D.U.N.E.), but it could still be quite usable. close [-]
