Cutting-edge Synthesis Takes Flight with Limitless Possibilities
Without question, Falcon 3 is UVI’s most comprehensive, detailed, and inspiring entry in its line of lauded soft synths — not just for what it adds from its predecessors, but how it looks to the future of sound design. Its 1,500 presets run the gauntlet of 20 oscillator types, like phase- and frequency-modulated synthesis, additive, physical modeling, virtual analog, granular, wavetable, and more. You’ve also got a slew of plucked, bowed-string, drum, and noise sounds in your arsenal, alongside a powerful, nuanced sampler and more than 100 powerful FX, including distortions EQs, delays, reverbs, and amps. Sweetwater’s sound designers with the detailed, high-fidelity output of UVI’s proprietary DSP, ensuring physically-modeled sounds and complex spatial modulation are endlessly evocative. Comprehensive modulation, layering, and scripting are paired with malleable workflow-adjustment tools and preset management to maximize creativity without compromising your interfacing. Did we mention MIDI can be algorithmically generated and that Falcon 3 supports MIDI Polyphonic Expression? And to think that this is just the 10,000-foot view of what Falcon 3 can do. Read on to dive further into the details!

Uncompromising sonic sculpting meets endless virtuality
It isn’t easy to imagine how many types of synthesis exist, and it’s even more challenging to consider emulating one, much less 20. Yet, that’s precisely what UVI chose to do with Falcon 3, and the company spared no effort. Virtual analog, wavetable, phase distortion, additive, FM, formant, drum, noise sample, stretch, granular, harmonic resonators, and physical modeling — these aren’t even all 20 styles, and you’ve already got a near-endless array of synthesis possibilities. Over 500 wavetables and 1,500 presets can be found in Falcon 3, created in collaboration with some of the world’s preeminent sound designers. Moreover, UVI’s advanced sampler engine includes a diverse tool kit of audio manipulation, from time-stretching and pitch-shifting to slicing and granular processing, evoking otherworldly soundscapes that can be endlessly dotted and explored with your samples.
Sound shaping without boundaries
For all Falcon 3’s oscillator types and synthesis possibilities, they aren’t the only place where meticulous layering, modulation, and mapping can evoke dynamic, morphing sounds. Over 100 onboard effects offer a litany of opportunities for detailed sound shaping, boasting high-fidelity distortions, dynamics controls, reverbs, analyzers, delays, and many more. Plus, effects can be used in multiple instances within a patch, as well as in parallel, and thoroughly modulated, allowing for unmatched control from MIDI, scripts, or active interactions. Falcon 3 even supports multichannel mixing and surround sound formats, granting unfettered access to immersive soundscapes and imaginative editing and interfacing possibilities.
Modulation, MIDI, scripting, and more
Performance in any setting is unlocked with Falcon’s deeply interwoven capacity for customized control, whether that’s extensive MIDI CC, OSC, and host automation support from physical controllers or comprehensive MPE compatibility. Internally, the Map and Remap functions provide detailed quantization and intra-connective potential within your patches, letting you modulate effects oscillators and even other modulators with MSEGs, envelopes, LFOs, randomizers, and more. If that weren’t enough, the savvy among us will appreciate Falcon’s ability to incorporate scripts to not just manipulate incoming MIDI information, but to also generate it algorithmically for inspiring new approaches to live performances and studio ideation.
