Retro Synthstack is the combination of 13 different analog synth oscillators. We sampled the ever classic Juno-60, the undeniable deep tones of Moog, and the sharp and incisive waves of the Prophet. Since old synths have quirks and irregularities on each note, we tracked them all. Real synths you've heard so many times, tracked thru tube preamps, arranged and stacked so you can combine them in brand new ways.

RETRO SYNTHSTACK
Undeniably classic, these three synths have such character in their oscillators so we didn't just sample one note, we made sure to sample the whole keyboard.
It is always inspiring to see what happens when you combine more than one synth on the same lead line, or pad, so we stacked all 13 so you can make truly unique vibes. Use each oscillator sound as a solo instrument or blend them together in infinite configurations to create brand new hybrid tones.
A fully customizable arpeggiator gives these vintage synth samples the functionality of an actual analog synth. Shape the tone with AHDSR and a filter of your choice before it hits 3 custom shaped LFO's: Gain, Pitch, and Filter. Finish crafting your sound with 5 onboard effects.
CREATIVITY
We build instruments that drive your creativity and nudge you towards innovation in your music. Nightfox Audio plugins are designed to let you stack up to 12 instruments to create brand new hybrid sounds within seconds, and then you can shape your tones with plenty of onboard fx so you can find inspiration quickly. All of our plugins have an arpeggiator and a melody builder that help you perform sounds you may not be able to recreate based on your skills and available instruments. These tools can unlock your creative potential so you can bring to life what's been playing in your head.
CHARACTER
We build virtual instruments with character. There's something special about the way sound waves interact with strings and wood. Real instruments have unpredictable artifacts, overtones, and harmonics, so we retained all of those nuances to bring you a tool that inspires you to create something truly unique.
QUALITY
At Nightfox Audio we believe virtual instruments should sound and feel like real instruments. That's why we used the best mics and preamps, hired on the best session players, and we've sampled every key, string, and fret, with a full velocity range, so you have the power of a full recording studio with you wherever you go.
