#ALBINO 3 DEMO PC#

Or rather, attempt to run several instances, as Albino continues to have a large appetite for CPU resources. But it also makes up for the fact that Albino is not a multitimbral instrument, so if you want to run several sounds at once you have to run several instances of it. This literally quadruples the creative possibilities when programming individual sounds (80 oscillators per note, anyone?). Probably the biggest news for existing users is that each preset can be made up of four individual sound layers. The latest version, Albino 3, carries the flag forward a further stage. Version 2 duly followed, adding a powerful arpeggiator and new digital waveforms, and beefing up the effects. These presets alone were well worth the cost of the program, and for anyone wanting to try their own hand at sound sculpture, they also showcased the exceptional range of tones and textures that Albino was capable of producing. That might sound just like a lot of other 'generic' soft synths on the market, but Albino 's trump card was its 1400 high-quality sounds designed by Papen himself. The result was Albino, a soft synth with four oscillators, two filters, comprehensive modulation routing, and effects. In 2002, Papen approached Peter Linsener of Linplug with the idea of building a virtual instrument worthy of bearing both their signatures. Even if you haven't heard of this Dutch sound designer by name, you'll have heard his handiwork in soundsets for Access, Alesis, Emu and Waldorf. Rob Papen seems to be the kind of guy who is able to program inspirational synth sounds in the way that the rest of us breathe - regularly and without any apparent conscious effort.
